There are a lot of reasons why someone might want to check out a guide like T Dub Sanders'. One might be interested in the underside of the game testing field. Others might just want to know what they can gain from a guide that is written to help people understand their role in the gaming industry. Others still are just pining for that ultimate career working alongside game developers and designers.

Whatever the reason, T Dub Sanders has put together one of the biggest and best game testing guides on the market – one that shows the underpinnings of the career in their raw, real format. There are no false promises of automatic testing or sitting at home and playing the newest games for hundreds of dollars a day.

That stuff is all pretty much a pipe dream and most people know it – yet many guide writers try to tell everyone that they can become the biggest and best new game testers in a field that doesn't really exist every day and too many fall for it. On the other hand, what T Dub has put together is a much more realistic, much more comprehensive look at what game testing is really about – the hard work and dedication that goes into becoming someone in charge of all that code each day.

By showing what it really takes to be a game tester, T Dub opens up an actual, realistic path to getting into the industry. He showcases skills needed to get started as a tester, the classes or college majors that people better be willing to invest in if they want to be a professional in this field and much more to help them figure out not only if the career path is right for them but if they are going to be cut out for it. That means a great deal for someone who may or may not know exactly what a game tester does and how it operates.

For anyone that is thinking about taking the path toward becoming a game tester, one of the first things that needs to be done is to learn more about what the career entails. Those people should pick up T Dub's newest guide and get a real insider's look at the job and how it really works. If you're serious about doing what T Dub shows you, you'll be on the fast track toward game testing in no time flat.

PS3-exclusive Beyond: Two Souls Special Edition box art revealed

Posted June 9th, 2013 at 09:42 EDT by Steve Chaffin2 Comments

 SCE and Quantic Dream have revealed today the Special Edition box art for the PlayStation 3 exclusive, Beyond: Two Souls, which is due to release October 8, 2013.  The case features an emblazoned scene of protagonist Jodie Holmes, differing from the close-up shot of Holmes in the standard edition.

Players who upgrade to the special edition (see author's note below) will gain 30 additional minutes of gameplay, a video feature depicting the creation of the game, the game's soundtrack, as well as a bonus theme and avatar pack.  

For more on the PS3-exclusive Beyond: Two Souls, starring Ellen Page as a woman with supernatural powers seeking to understand the world around her throughout various stages of her life, head over to PlayStation Universe's official game page.

More on this upcoming interactive cinema from Quantic Dream may be released at E3.  Stay tuned at PSU's E3 hub, and on Twitter @PSUdotcom.

Author's note: For gamers who know they'll be purchasing Beyond: Two Souls, GameStop is currently offering a limited number of free upgrades.  I was attempting to check the price difference between the standard release and special edition, and noticed that the special edition is currently listed for the standard $59.99.  How long this deal lasts, I'm not sure, but monetarily a wise choice for anyone who is set on making this purchase.
