My Story

So I was playing this new shooter last week and I found a bug, when I switch from one gun to another while swimming, the first gun gets dropped. I emailed the developers, who emailed the project leaders -- who emailed me back saying "oops" and "thanks."

The week before that I got 2 free copies of games that hit stores next month. I've already passed one of those games though, so I sold the full version to my brother. I used to go out and buy games and pay monthly subscriptions to play those games online... and now I go to school, I come home and I have games waiting for me in the mail months before they get released.

I "work" with unreleased games about 4 hours a day, sometimes less, and my checks blow away what I used to get making coffee for others.

The Imitators

It wasn't always like this though. I'd go to school, go to work at a coffee shop, come home late, play games, wake up tired, and repeat everything the next day. On top of that, I also had to save up to buy games, pay monthly subscriptions to play those games, and spend hours looking for cheat codes and guides.

One day I found a website that promised me that I would play games online and get paid for it. The site charged $59.99 for the information. So I paid. After I paid I found that the site was such garbage, it was ridiculous... But the seed had been planted.

The Search & The Guide

I started doing my own research and looking for jobs that would pay me to test and play games. It took me 6 months and a lot of trial and error -- mostly error. But I documented my adventures and the sites I used.

The thing about these jobs is that the more people you tell, the more people you have to compete with when these companies hire. So like an ancient scroll I thought about burying my guide, not letting anyone ever see it. But, my friends and my conscience convinced me to share the guide.

There was no way I was going to give away 6 months worth of research. I thought about selling it for $199 so that no one would buy it, but I decided against it. I gave $99 a chance, but my friends complained... "what if it was you" they said. So I finally settled on a variable length membership, starting at $39.95. I think that is HIGHLY fair.

It takes time to land ...
