Discover How Becoming A Game Tester Can Turn Your Life Around! Learn How You Can Earn up to $120 An Hour Or More… By Playing Video Games! Dear Game Lover, Are you sick and tired of running around in circles... are you frustrated because you haven’t found the right answers to online success for yourself? If you are suffering any of these situations then I have to tell you something very *important*... Being able to make money online isn’t as hard as it may seem.Hey I’m not kidding… There was a time when I too was frustrated… I used to work for long hours just to make ends meet. I hated the idea of getting up early only to get stuck in traffic, bosses ordering me what to do, and wasting my whole day in the office. Then I step into online business and tried all kinds of those ‘so called’ moneymaking systems, but they just never seemed to work. People were making money by getting me to do what they do. I invested my hard-earned money and in return I didn't even get the resources to get me off the ground. Everything turned to be scam… Finally, after countless hours and thousands of dollars of research I discovered a very easy and fail proof method to reach financial freedom. I do make money every single day…in fact every hour. No kidding! I have discovered such an easy method that allows me to have all that I wished for in my long hour jobs but never actually got any. Now I’m here To Share My Path to Success and Information with You!Before I reveal my fool-proof, super-easy money making method, let me ask you a question: Would you like to make a decent hourly rate just to play and test video games? Isn’t its great? If you are on this page it clearly shows you have a passion for video games. And I strongly believe that if passion turns into profession the resultant is *unlimited income*. So, I advice you to: Turn Your Passion into Your Profession You know… over 200 game companies are willing to pay you just to test their games. These companies want you to be a game tester and give them your advice on their developed games and in return they will pay you handsome sum of money. I’m a living example of it. It would be right if I say this is an era of Internet and Video Games. Today the game industry is over a $60 billion business. The companies that release their produced games with bugs in them will cause them a loss of millions of dollars. And no good company will ever want that. So, they think it a good idea to pay hundreds of dollars to gamers just to point out the glitches in their games. So they can release bug-free games and customers will not return their games. Okay… imagine this. You are a gamer and you buy a new video game that crashes every time your character shoots the enemy. It is obvious that you will not like the game and will never recommend it to anyone else. This will be a serious setback for the game company which had invested millions of dollars in the development of the game. And when no one buy their games due to the bad word-of-mouth advertising... the result is obvious: they will lose millions! “Then… What Are There Programmers For?” Well, programmers are not gamers. So they cannot find the bugs that a video-game tester will. If a company is paying you $50 an hour just to test video games for them that would otherwise ruin the game experience and quite possibly hurt their sales. Then what’s wrong in it? Isn't it a good deal? 5 Good Reasons Why Playing Video Games Is An Extremely Easy Way To Earn Money! 1. No Pre-Requisite No formal education is required to be a video game tester. 2. Top Paid Game Testers earn up $120 Per Hour Starting out You can earn $10 - $120 an hour being a video game tester. 3. Get the Games for FREE You keep the games you test without paying a dime. 4. video game system -You only need one video game system to become a video game tester. 5. Work on Your Will-You can choose your work hours.

Games both as activities and as a basic educational tool are important not only from birth to death, but also from the beginnings of human society to the present day. This book describes some modern game approaches, procedures and algorithms, as well as the practical use of game theory and its development. The discipline of game theory deals mainly with types, description, algorithmization and strategies, but also the formalization of games. Among other topics, the book discusses game classifications and formalization, cooperative and non-cooperative games, symmetric and asymmetric games, simultaneous and turn-based (sequential) games, and games with complete and incomplete information. The book also considers the testing and presentation of games, the relationship of game theory and information technologies, of strategy games and sports games, of economy and business games theory, and the educational, training and sociological impacts of gaming.
