Sony has announced it is planning a new reality show that will air exclusively on the PlayStation 3, with casting already underway for the PSN-only series.
Called 'The Tester', the show will be based around a group of everyday gamers who have to compete in a series of gaming challenges that are "
designed to test their mental prowess, dexterity, and video game knowledge". So, that'd be a quiz about the history of
Final Fantasy and speedruns of
Drake's Fortune then.
The winner will apparently get the chance to work as a games tester for Sony, which is often held to be
one of the most depressing and thankless jobs in the industry but which Sony labels "
every gamer's ultimate dream job".
Set to air before the end of the year,
the official website is already online and accepting applications, should you want to compete for a chance to work for Sony.
Will you be applying to the star in the show, hopeful that you can win a chance of correcting mistakes in Sony games at the end of it all? Let us know in
the forums.
