    So there's probably some sort of news article that this comic is referring to.

    As I was already aware that testing games is not, in fact, an easy and fun job, but actual tedious work, I suppose the humorous revelation was lost on me.

    I'm assuming it's in regards to Sony's upcoming reality show based on the life of a QA tester.

    since the newspost is up and saying that, I would agree

    An elimination-style reality show where the winner gets to be a game tester?

    The recession's resulted in a larger job shortage than I thought.

    What it is is faster than my usual standards in how quickly it was tossed together after the thread opened. A 26-minute timestamp's fine too.

    Nothing in the rules that says I can't do both. Now I can go sleep and think of something else later once I've figured out what this comic's about.

    How much does an official PlayStation® game tester make? Maybe they're in it just to get a steady job.
