A survey has been conducted by Game Developer magazine about the pay structure in the field of video game for programmers and the reviewers. The survey result concludes that programmers were making large amount money. According to the sixth annual survey taken by Game Developer magazine, programmers were earning the largest part money with a regular income of more than $80,000 per year for a second year in a row.

Producers were bagged the Second position , who earned an average of $77,000 and Game designers came in after that with an average salary of better than $61,500 although those with three or less years of experience came in much lower at a salary of less than $45,000. Artists came in next with an average salary of about $43,000.

Quality assurance or game testers be paid an average of just under $38,000 per year but again with only three or fewer years of experience, that salary drops to only just over $26,000 per year. Certainly game reviewers are still paid the least and most would not even reveal what little they earn.
