Could Become A Paid Game Reviewer
On Cheat Code Central! |

How
does getting paid to play videogames sound to
you? Have you ever thought you'd love
to write for a popular videogame website but didn't
know how to get your foot in the door? Well we're
opening that door and allowing as many feet in
as possible. CCC is currently recruiting freelance
writers to work with the CCC crew. All you need
are the abilities to play games like a hardcore
fanatic and write extremely well. This is the
opportunity of a lifetime! Rarely does a popular
website like CCC open its doors to submissions.
We can't say how long we'll keep it open so act
fast!

| Get
Paid To Write In 3 Easy Steps |
| |
|
1.
If your submission is accepted by CCC, you're
on your way!
2.
Continue to send in well written reviews of games
(written by you and NOT copy and pasted from other
websites...we check!). After your 15th review
has been posted, you will earn $10 US per review
starting with the publication of your 16th review.
Please note that you will not be paid for the
first 15 reviews. The 15 reviews are considered
your probation period. Continue to be a loyal
writer for CCC and your pay per article could
increase depending on how hard you work! You could
also get cool freebies like games, toys, shirts
and more! Writers
can also be paid for writing previews - more info
will be available to those who have their review
submissions accepted.
3.
Once you have submitted your 16th review, you
need to provide CCC with your Social Security
Number (USA), Social Insurance Number (Canada)
or National Insurance Number (UK) or your country's
equivalent as well as your contact information
so you can be paid for your work by check.

| What
You Need To Know |
| |
| Writers
will not be reimbursed in payment
for the games they review which means if you buy
or rent a game to review it, CCC will not pay you
for the price of the game purchase or rental. Writers
will not receive games to review from CCC and will
have to get the game(s) on their own - although
this may change the longer the writer stays with
CCC. Writers may not be able to review all of the
games they want to review due to the most popular
games being handled by writers who receive them
before the game is released. More information regarding
this & other topics will be given to those who
have their submissions accepted by CCC. Please
do not ask questions about this. If you are accepted
as a candidate for CCC, you will receive all of
the vital information you need at that time. |
