Meet the cast

Surely, we’ve all been to the “I wanna be a game tester” phase at some point. These guys are still there, and they’re out to nail that dream job. The cast ranges from 22-36 years of age, a student, a paramedic, and a used-car salesman among them, and the goal is to secure the post in SCEA as America’s. Next. Top. Model. PlayStation game tester.

The contest will be judged by David Jaffe, SCE release manager Brent Gocke, and a special celebrity judge who will be revealed soon enough. Stay tuned.
