The video game industry is huge! Billions of dollars change hands every year. Some mainstream games now cost hundreds of millions of dollars and up to 5 years to develop!
So my question to you is "WHY". Why do they still manage to come out with substandard games.
There are a few reasons for this, one being that the small companies that actually make the game are put under deadlines, that make completing the game on time nearly impossible, resulting in a buggy or unfinished feeling game.
Part of the other problem is sometimes while under this huge crunch they just don't have enough testers to hammer out the bugs before forced to release a game.
So how do you become a paid tester? If you really want to give it a shot take a look at the two links below.

Now your saying, "Hold on a minute, I have to PAY to do this.
Well yes. The saying goes "no such thing as a free lunch" right?
Part of the reason for your paying is because it takes a lot of work to find, compile and streamline the data in such a way that YOU actually have a chance of finding an "in". The people that put these together worked hard to find the ways into the industry and are trying to get a reward for their efforts.
