In another sign that my generation’s culture is gaining dominance, NPR gave video games a bit of coverage this morning. Unfortunately, the story that makes it sound like the company invented playtesting doesn’t suggest that Microsoft’s behemoth investment in the Halo franchise makes that testing (and, perhaps, blandness) necessary. (Meanwhile, MSNBC last year ran an off-message story about how playtesters declared the Wii the top console.)
Reality: Playtesting is one of those dream jobs that people scour Craigslist for or start questionable-looking services around. As a side benefit, it improves your vision.

When I was in Seattle Microsoft was posting to Craig’s List for playtesters. They weren’t offered much though, it wasn’t a full-time gig, nor was it regular work.
Regular work or not, isn’t it he sort of thing you’d call in sick for the day to do?
