New Zealand

Hey myLotters, I was wanting to work as a video game tester. But there is a barrier that is stopping me and it is that I live in New Zealand, so I would guess most jobs are available to residents of the USA. If anyone know a place that is 100% legit (I would prefer if I don't have to pay for it, but if it is a legit site, then alright I will pay) and is available to anyone and anywhere is the world. I have done some research myself and found a couple of sites, could anyone tell me if any of them is 100% legit. Here is the list of sites I found: http://beagametester.com/ http://www.gametesterheaven.com/ http://www.gamertestingground.com http://www.only4gamers.com These 2 look the most legit: http://www.becomeagametester.com/ http://www.vidgametesters.com/

hey davidshin, no I don't, it varies from company to company. anywayz I can't seem to find any legit sites that you can apply on (sites that make you pay are scams). plz PM me anyone if anyone has found a legit site.

Hi anthony5cool, My husband wants to become a video game tester as well. He's looked through a few sites, and I have as well, I think the first one you listed we've looked at and the third one as well but am not sure about the others. I think the best thing to do is to go to the websites of the video game companies, that is to say, that there was one company (I forget which) that makes video games that asked for video game testers. I'm assuming your looking for possibilities to work from home, these I'm afraid are harder to pick out because many of them are either not legit, or they are too time consuming to try to get. Well I wish you luck and hope my advice helps you. Have a wonderful day!
