 Speaking about games, you can actually make a living out of it – provided that you are the brightest and the best! It’s pretty competitive in the gaming market and each software company going neck to neck to compete for the lucrative billion dollars industry – it’s close to $40 billion if I’m not mistaken.
There are 2 choices for companies that cash in games:
1. Get a couple of games that can kick ass and reap profit out of it
2. Die trying and your company goes bankrupt
It’s pretty common that gaming companies went high and dry after their period of glory – which makes the industry pretty high risks.
Anyway there are in fact people who make a living by playing games.
1. Games testers or GM – Yes, this is a gamer’s fantasy job. Play all you want and don’t need to worry about money! I’d love to test games, but my country is ravaged with software piracy and games company are close to none existence – except online games of course.
2. People who sell online booties – These are the professionals, the gurus and not to mention the ones that created scripts to help automate the process. They like to gather online wealth such as rare or exotic weapons and most commonly virtual cash! These professionals can make a couple of hundred to a few thousand bucks a month. Some even went to the extent of creating a server farm automating several hundred of characters in the game!
One of the hottest online games out in the market is none other than WoW or World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy. Do a simple search on eBay and you’ll see people selling all sorts of items there. Lately, there’s been a crackdown by eBay on these virtual booties so I’m not sure whether there are still people selling these items – when there’s a will, there’s a way.
Fancy of having a job playing games? Be the pioneer on Rappelz!
Once again… Don’t get addicted to games!
