Get a Sneak Peek at ‘The Tester’ Season 2 Trailer!

51 3

The countdown to the debut of “The Tester” Season 2 is now underway with just two weeks to go until the Season Premiere on Tuesday, November 2nd. The new season promises to be bigger and bolder with more behind-the-scenes with the cast, bigger challenges, and, as many of you requested, longer episodes. For a taste of what’s to come, here’s the first-ever glimpse at the new season!

This trailer, in all its HD glory, is also available from PlayStation Store later today along with “The Tester” theme featuring the cast and panelists. You’ll find both in the “Media” section under “The Tester” icon.

And, next Tuesday, we’ll be releasing a Preview Show featuring hilarious casting submission outtakes and more about each cast member. Finally, you’ll also be able to follow “The Tester” on Facebook with the show’s new tab on the PlayStation Facebook page. The new tab will allow you to “Like” your favorite cast members and watch previews of each week’s new episode during the season.

We’re very excited about the upcoming Season 2 and hope you’ll join us on the PlayStation Network on Tuesday, November 2 when Meredith Molinari, Adrianne Curry, Brent Gocke and Guest Panelist, Stig Asmussen make the first decisions on who stays in the PlayStation loft…and who goes home first.

  • WOW! Looks awesome! Even my girlfriend might wanna watch this season with me. XD. More drama then BigBrother.

  • awesome! when can we expect the store to update?

  • I’m so NOT going to watch this!

  • Nov 2nd eh? The old release date for Gran Turismo 5. Instead of a massive exclusive for the PS3 we get a reality show. Thanks Sony!

  • Great news. Even though I really despise this kind of reality TV mellow drama, I actually really enjoyed season 1 of The Tester. Me and my cousin would chat about it every week.

    • You’ll have 8 weeks to chat with your cousin as new episodes will be released every week starting on 11/2. Or, you guys can also meet up in PlayStation Home as The Tester will also be running in it’s own theater, like last season.

  • i think all the tester are in it for the money and not just to be a tester and for the love of games. sony you need me RAVEN81 and finbars75

  • I reluctantly admit I will be watching this. Glad to see that they are actually being tested on gaming this time instead of random reality challenge like last time. Although hearing someone say “I am not here to make friends” touches the part of my brain that says I should stop watching “reality” TV.

  • The show I love to hate.

  • it almost looks like they are hosting this show for ratings… i think maybe 2 or 3 of those guys ACTUALLY want/deserve the chance to be a tester… and already from wat i saw on the trailer, i would be no joke on that show, maybe they jus didn’t want another guy in there winning EVERY challenge again like cyrus lol… either way, i truly believe they’re missing out on not chosing me

    • Remember, Cyrus almost got sent home when he failed to complete the Memorization challenge in Episode 7? He was also on the losing side of Episode 3’s Teamwork challenge when Fame Girl got sent home. Just saying…

  • would rather see a live gaming tournament. Just doesnt make much since watching people argue over the stupid reality show contest when a real gamer would be zombified in front of the tv.

  • All those shots of the GT5 pod in that trailer followed by a November 2nd date is just cruel. :/

  • woop woop!
    SEASON 2!!!

  • Hopefully this is the last season of this trash…

  • It I was on that show, I would rape in any physical challenge that dealt with speed, my 4.3 speed would do the job lol

  • Will definitely be watching. The first season was pretty entertaining. One of those guilty pleasures that I would never admit to enjoying…..but I did.

  • Is that a Fat Princess-themed challenge I spy, with the sumo suits?

  • @12 If you don’t like it, don’t watch, it’s as easy as that.

    Wonder what funny challanges they’ll do this time!
    Or an epic Fail like Doc with the paintball challenge and he said he was in Marines :)

  • This is seriously a complete waste. What makes a good cast member for a reality show, does not make a good game tester. Yet from your interview with the season 1 winner it sounds like you promoted him already. You know with the “I can’t talk about what he’s doing now” and his “Foot in the door comment”.

    This whole thing is nuts.

  • Why is it everybody on the tester looks like a kid ? Any REAL hardcore gamer is older than them bunch of twirps lol . won’t catch me watching that krap. didn’t watch the 1st one definitely not watching this one.

  • I think sony should focus more on developing more features for the ps3 like better web browser than be wasting money on these bunch of clowns.

  • so,are you guys also running a contest for those that download the show?if so,then thats awesome, count me in as an avid viewer then !:0)

  • I assume it will be free like season 1 was.

  • @21 right… I hope you know that this actually gains Sony profit, which they can allocate to such areas that improve the features on the PS3

  • @24 i wonder where that profit that you speak of comes from since the show is free :0

    no, the profit that sony makes is when you buy something from them be it a game,accessory,qore,a movie or spend money for home stuff…..

  • Oh god, 8bit-Jackass made the cut…

  • Why do I feel like the quality of the games I’m buying just went down because one of these wingnuts is testing my games -.-

  • This looks pretty good, i watched last seasons show and will this one too. i cant wait to see a wheelchair user such as my self in a season. what kind of challenged would be bought fourth lol (wheelchair in bubble?”)lol

  • Is the show still a 30-minute format or has it been increased to an hour? I found that season 1 just wasn’t long enough to get into the nitty gritty and personal relationships like you can w/say Big Brother or Survivor…

  • Wow, they seem a lot more hostile that the contestants last year. From watching that preview I’m less interested in the new season. :/

  • my guilty show. i watch it but kinda hid it from friends. cant wait

  • I’m on TeamCheska and TeamMoChocolate this season, those are the two I’m rooting for.

  • NOOOOOO why did you guys resort to drama.. PLEASE cut it down to a minimum. I loved the first one because there wasn’t a lot of drama in it..

  • 8Bit Mickey, hope you take this all the way!

  • I’m excited for the show. :D

  • WTF…

    Anyway I hope to see David Jaffe again.

  • I really hope my Plus money is not going towards this ridiculous Playstation exclusive feature.

  • Will Sony Consider returning some of the Tester contenders that did not make it into other seasons similar to Survivor?

  • More idiocy, just what we all pay you for. FAIL. Take the hint you’d be better off doing lot & lobby pickup at mcdonalds or the parkinglot cartboy or cartgirl at malwart, at least there you’d get a puny discount on your ps3 games.

  • This season will be so much better.

  • Really dumb… like these guys can actually play a video game decently …… why didn’t they do a show like be a professional gamer sponsored by Sony…

  • This Season will be WAYY better!! PS Move is out, 3D TV’s and a lot of good games, LBP2, inFamous 2, and whole bunch of others!!

  • wow and i mean wow!! , i really hope my friend wins the tester ( not saying who) yeap my friends in it to win go for it buddy go for it loves ya guy and we miss you on here. we’ll keep watching and cheering everyone on.

  • Two reasons to watch this show: Adrianne Curry and that host…Beautiful! No other reason really, unless they actually show these guys compete in games? I guess it’d be better if they created a show called “The Gamer”

  • @Incredinoob 2 reasons to not watch this show 1. because you recommend it 2. show is krap waste of money.
    end of truth

  • @NURADEEN if you weren’t interested, why did you click on the article, watch the trailer and make a comment? I guess you like wasting your time? Move along

  • how is it a waste of money? loool.

  • better have a racing episode on 11/2 instead of gt5

  • what a bunch of nerds..

  • hello everyone MO CHOCOLATE here and wanted to say thanks for all the comments! good and bad : D i am geeking out haha
