    I'm interested in any early versions of any Final Fantasy game on PS1, be it alpha, beta.etc, Promos are welcome too -I have seen promos for IV V and VI, anything that isn't a retail copy is relevant to my interests!

    What have you got? Give me a price.

    I'm convinced thats the perfect job.

    You get paid.
    You get free video game heirlooms (which translates to a collection or more money).
    You play betas for a living.

    Throw in a crown and scepter and you're the king of the world...

    Technically you can lose your job for selling the items (if there is a job to be lost). Job security isnt high especially with today's economy. Sure you get to play some betas, but you also get to play games that you would never normally touch, and early, bugged copies at that! Not really the perfect job at all.

    You get paid poorly, the perks get boring very quickly, and you are forced to play games to a deadline and review them with a constant mind to whatever "tone" your publication is trying to set. Your editor may decide to alter whatever you've written and/or change the review, and your name will be on it either way.

    No job is perfect, and the majority of game journos I know moan about their job all the time.

    I think you mean HAVE to play insted of GET.

    game reviewing would be cool until the first time I was asked to review MADDEN XTREME 2k4361: throw a ball edition.

    "well you pick a play and you throw a ball. You can see the glistening sweat drip down the players hulking bodies. its a MUST have 10/10!!"

    Even a "cool" job isn't cool 100% of the time, but that does not necessarily detract from its coolness.
