I saw this ad while browsing Facebook for my daily whoring with my friends. Anyone had experience with this type of service? It seems way to true to even be good? Perhaps a scam?

Any thoughts?

Ick you gotta give them monies first, I just took a look at it as well from facebook. There are free sites you can go to that will help vs this nasty beast.

Heres how to tell if somethings a scam or not.

If at any point, they ask you for money, its a scam.

I can't look at this now, but really, to test games, shouldn't they pay you? Why should you be paying anything?

So, as Puffa said, if they ask for any money, it's a scam (think about it, when you go to work at McDonalds, you don't pay them up front, they train and then pay you)

Pay to test? That's like the recycling company, man, who collects money from me to pick the shit up on the curb, and then makes money selling it to recycling centers.

Perhaps not a scam, but not something you'd want to jump into if you have any scruples.

Sounds like a relatively-young service, yet they expect people to plunk down money immediately to "test games"? May not be a scam, but something tells me they are going to die young and fast.

if you live near a studio, check your local paper

i live near majesco and they're always paying money to test games

when bloodrayne 2 was out they gave us $100 + 3 free games for 2 hours (90 mins of playing, 30 mins of talking)

usually they only give $50 + 1 free game tho
