Question by global surveyor: I have just bought “Monopoly – Here and now” for the PC and the game has more bugs than my back garden. Do I
have the consumer right to take it back, when you play against two other computer opponents it just freezes at random moments and there are multiplayer problems as well. Is this a valid reason to take the game back?

The Untold Facts About Game Testers

Game tester is the dream job of many gamers. But, this is not an easy job, as it may seem to be. To become a game tester one need have determination and patience along with the knowledge of highly technical skills.

To become a video game tester, the first thing you need to do is to get over with the myths and fantasies. Many gamers are under the impression that a game tester’s job is to just play the games and which is like a fairy tale job for them. But this is not the case.

Game testers are not paid to just sit and simply play the newest games. It is correct to say that they get to play the newest and the most advanced games before any one else. They have to play the game and search for bugs and program errors before it is marketed out to the public. Any normal player can hardly find these errors.

Game testers play a very vital role to game manufacturers because the company just cannot make and release games that contain lots of program errors and bugs. And if they do so, nobody will play their games, which will be a complete loss to the company. And this loss will not be a small amount. Companies invest millions of dollar just for one game.

Basically, the game testing is done on a personal computer, a PlayStation, Xbox and so on. The job of a game tester is to play the game and try to find the bugs or errors, if there is any. And if there is any bug or error, he or she has to report it describing what happened, where it occurred and how it occurred. This way, the programmers can easily locate the bug or error and find a solution to remove it.

Generally, the game testers have to play the same game again and again for long hours and that too at the same level just to find out the location of the error. They also have to check the durability of the game disc through a series of tests like how much damage it can resist before becoming unresponsive and so on.

Usually for beginners, the game testers get payment around USD 10 –12 per hour only. An annual survey reports that testers earn around ,063 per year but those who have experience over six year get around ,056 per year. And if you are a top video game tester, you can expect around 0,000 per year. Some employers even offer extra payments to the tester for the number of bugs he finds.

As video game industry is growing day by day, the requirement for game testers is also increasing. So, one can easily get a job as game tester if he or she is really good in it.

PC for Gaming Needs

You can use your personal computer for gaming. Computers for gaming must follow the new improvements in order to run the newest games.

Gaming computers can be configured for optimum performance and maximum performance. Optimum performance gaming personal computers offer a good quality of game play but not the best one, they are configured to work fine and give nice results. Optimum performance is really good because machines that are made to be optimal are safe from breaking down because they do not use their full potential and are still good. Maximum performance personal computers can run games in biggest resolutions, with best details, best shade effects and all that makes games more good looking. However, there is one problem with maximum performance. Machines that are made to run according to their maximum but do not have the required hardware are under a constant pressure during game play. The graphic card can overheat, and the same goes for the processor, making the game play even slower while skipping frames and other side effects. So be careful with your choice.

Gamers with no experience in hardware mostly buy pre-made personal computers for their gaming needs. There are gamers who choose their configuration and put it together themselves. Cases for gaming computers tend to be flashier, you can see trough the case because you can have glass on one side, so you could see the components inside.

You can buy some special gadgets for gaming computers. You can buy joysticks that are useful when playing some flight simulators. You can get joy-pads for fighting games or any other kind of joystick you feel comfortable with. You can get a steering wheel for driving games and simulations. A PC that should match your gaming needs must have its hardware updated all the time to be able to run the newest games and the requirements change every few months. Unlike consoles, personal computers may experience problems with the compatibility of the game with the computer itself. A computer can have old hardware and work fine, but sometimes, even if the hardware requirements are fulfilled the computer may not be able to run games. The computer might have some virus that has destroyed the executable file for the game, it can have problems with the internet connection, a low disk space could be a problem, and the list goes on. So, if you are going to buy a gaming computer should choose your components carefully or choose a premade computer that has great hardware. Take really good care of that personal computer and update its hardware and software if you wish to play the newest games.

You can look on the internet and find useful information on how to make a great PC that matches your gaming needs. It is best to review several pc’s and components so that you know what is out there, know that you are not paying too much and you can see what the best options for you are.

If you intend to play some particular game you can also have a look at the box of the game and see what the requirements are to play that game. If you then buy components that are slightly better than the suggested requirements for the game you know that you will be on the safe side for that particular game and will not come across any errors if all goes well.

Working as a Game Tester – 10 Important Terms You Need To Know

Imagine applying for Quality Assurance job totally unaware about what Quality Assurance even means.  Better yet, visualize yourself receiving your first beta game to test in the mailbox and not knowing what a bug is.  To save you from this kind of embarrassment, I created a list of ten terms aspiring game tester need to know as they prepare to enter the game testing field.

Alpha – refers to the stage in a game’s development where all the features and codes have been implemented, but there are bugs in the game and gameplay needs to be tweaked.

Beta – is the stage where everything has been implemented into the game, and, as far as the developer know, there are no bugs and gameplay has been fully tweaked

Beta Testing – is the testing done at home by volunteers.  These volunteers are mailed a copy of the game before release date and report back to the game company what they thought of the game and possible bugs they found.

Bugs – are problems with a game.  Bugs are classified into four categories: A, B, C, and D bugs.  The “A” bugs are types of bugs that must be fixed before the game is shipped out.  “A” bugs make the game crash, cause viruses within the game, and, ultimately, force the game to be unplayable.  “B” bugs are those that are less serious than “A” bugs.  Unlike “A” bugs, games with “B” bugs can be shipped because they are only minor flaws that do not ruin the gaming experience.  Games with “B” bugs tend to get released because certain “B” bugs are too hard to fix.  “C” bugs are bugs that might seem important to some tester but when weighed against the company’s need to release the game, the “C” bug is not a big problem at all.  Lastly, “D” bugs are very minor promblems that will most likely remain unfixed.  Ultimately, it is impossible to fix all the bugs a game has.

Code Release – is the stage in a game’s development where the game is considered complete and ready for manufacture.

Debug – is the process of fixing a bug or simply finding what causes the bug so it can be fixed.

Gold Master – represents the final copy of the game.  The Gold Master is coined after the Quality Assurance deemed the game as final and when the programmers have stopped working on the game.

Lead Tester – is an experienced tester who guides beginner testers.

Play Testing – is the testing of a game to determine how fun it is as opposed to testing a game to find bugs.

Quality Assurance – refers to a stage in the game’s development where testers stress over trying to identify all the game’s potential problems.  This term can also be used to describe a department within the game company that tests games and equipment.

Now you are equiped with the knowledge you need to begin searching for job in the game testing industry.
