Looking for Jobs in the Video Game Industry
1. Work as a Video Game Officer.
Working in a video game store or rental place - whether permanently or temporarily - must be the dream of a teenage gamer. In one place, employees have access to the first game and a hot game system on the market and they can peek at magazines in the media before anyone else. If that is not enough, the clerk of the game gets a discount for what should be too expensive (games, game systems, and game accessories) even to think about buying. Sweet!

2. Work as a Game Tester.
Before the game touches the market, this game must go through extensive testing and if you think programmers behind the game are testing their own material, think again. The gaming industry is very sensitive about what it releases to the public. In an effort to remain competitive, it must really ensure that the game it produces functions as intended. This is where the tester enters the image. But it's not easy to become a game tester. Being a game tester requires a little help from the inside, but once you are there, you will not only have access to games that no one else knows, you will also have the opportunity to shape the game into an experience that you and your friends prefer.

3. Work as a Game Designer.
Do you have good artistic skills? Can you revoke the character faster than you can say, "I draw it"? If so, you might be able to get a video game designing career. Video games now emit some of the most beautiful graphics ever seen and if you have a good imagination, can use some of the most sophisticated graphics software programs available, and can follow instructions, you can see your own artwork in the next popular video game.

4. Work as a Critic Game.
The game industry is always looking for good content and if you have the talent to write combined with a love of games, you can write for game magazines like Game Informer or you can write content for very popular game websites.

5. Work as a Game Programmer.

Not a career for everyone, a good game programmer is always in demand. When player preferences change and new technology is developed, someone with the right programming skills must be there to fill the gap between what the player wants, and what the game industry can provide. Being a game programmer requires extensive training in several different development languages ??- so if you don't have a clue about what we just said, skip this profession and look at the others.

The good news about all this is that the game industry shows no signs of disappearing in the near future. Even universities are starting to love playing games when they fill textbooks with game programming classes and game design curricula. There will always be an opportunity for you to combine your love for a fixed pay game as long as you remain dedicated to finding this opportunity, and you try to keep abreast of what is happening in the gaming world.
