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.

Thief will also be sneaking onto PS3 and Xbox 360, confirms Eidos

Posted June 20th, 2013 at 12:38 EDT by Mike Harradence1 Comments

Developer Eidos Montreal has confirmed that sneak-‘em-up reboot Thief will also be coming to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

The game was originally believed to be a next-generation and PC exclusive title, though it will now be coming to the current crop of hardware from Sony and Microsoft.

"Since Thief's announcement for a 2014 release on high end PC and next-gen platforms, we've received a huge number of questions from community members wondering if the Thief experience would ever be available for their current generation consoles," said Adam Badke, community manager at Eidos Montreal.

"With full details of the new platforms still emerging, it's understandable that some of our fans are cautious to plunge feet first into the awesomely hot but unchartered waters of the next generation."

Thief was first announced back in 2009 as the fourth instalment in the acclaimed stealth-action series, and later resurfaced earlier this year as a full reboot. The game stars master thief Garrett as he skulks around a Victorian/steampunk-esque metropolis known as The City.

The game is scheduled for release in 2014.

Eidos Montreal teases Deus Ex: The Fall reveal

You are here: Home » News » Deus Ex Human Revolution 2 » Eidos Montreal teases Deus Ex: T...

Posted June 3rd, 2013 at 22:22 EDT by Steve Chaffin3 Comments

Eidos Montreal, fueling an aura of mystery that has left the gaming community baffled, tweeted today a teaser for Deus Ex: The Fall, reading "Where will YOU take The Fall?" and accompanied by a Vine video snippet. When viewed, a voice asks "Are we ready to begin?" in the background.

In the video game industry, hype is usually the result of some snippet of gameplay, or a few transfixing words from a developer. This is not the case with Deus Ex: The Fall, as aside from a few domains registered by Square Enix and the developer's tweet today, absolutely nothing is known about the project. There has been some speculation that this mysterious title is merely another round of downloadable content for Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but considering the last round of DLC for the game was released in October 2011, it's an unlikely scenario.

The tweet does, however, foreshadow the end of Eidos' secret project, reading "05/06/13" under the header of Deus Ex: The Fall. While nothing can be for certain, we can infer that more information concerning this title will be unveiled in the next couple of days on June 5, and even more information will likely be revealed at this year's E3.

What do you think about Deus Ex: The Fall? Is this just a late round of DLC meant to revive interest in Human Revolution, or is Eidos attempting to garner hype for an ambiguous, standalone sequel? Share your thoughts in the comment section below, and discuss with our community on PSU's official message boards. Stay informed-on the-go with @PSUdotcom.
