Sony Planning PS3 Reality Show, Winner Becomes Game Tester

September 3, 2009 1:04 PM

Sony has begun casting for a new reality show series to air exclusively on the PlayStation 3. Contestants on the show will compete to earn a job as a Sony game tester. You can't make this stuff up.

Dubbed "The Tester," the show will see a group of gamers competing in "a series of elimination challenges designed to test their mental prowess, dexterity, and video game knowledge and compete to win a gamer's ultimate dream job--an official PlayStation game tester."

The series, developed by "Rock of Love" and "Flavor of Love" producer 51 Minds, will air this winter. The official website is now accepting applications.

But first, you may want to watch the follow video, and ask yourself: "Are you a gamer? Are you the BEST?"

  It's like winning The Price Is Right and the prize is getting to be a cameraman's assistant.
