Marina Martin, a young games tester
Most days I finish my homework and then I have to
play computer games for the rest of the afternoon.
Yes, I have to! You see, I earn money by looking for
mistakes in games.
I've always been crazy about computer games. My
dad's a journalist and my mum's a photographer, so
there's been a computer in the house since before
I was born. I can remember playing very simple
games on it when I was less than five years old and
my dad telling me to switch it off and go outside
I was online one day when I saw an advertisement
from a video game company. They were looking for
young people to give their opinions about some of
their new games. I contacted them but I wasn't old
enough because I was 14.
Three years later, several companies now send me
their games. I often spend hours on the same game..
I have to play it from start to finish several times,
look at all the menus and try all the different ways
of playing it. While I'm doing this, I take notes and
then write a clear email which the company can
understand easily.
You have to work quickly because the company
often wants to sell their new game as soon as
possible. I may have to spend a lot of the weekend
testing. However, I think I'm very lucky that my
hobby has become a job. Most of the time, I love it!
