Title: gamesmaster tv show
Post by: stethebubble on March 06, 2015, 09:53:52 pm

did anyone else watch this show as a kid? or am i showing my age here?
i miss that show. the contests to win the golden joystick.  Sir Patrick Moore as the games master answers all your gaming questions.  Dominik Diamond hosting and talking to the players. the game reviews, the fact you had to record the end credits and play them slow as it was all cheats for games played at super speed.
i remember watching them play killer instinct and being blown away by insane combos

i say bring back a show like this. let celebrities duke it out for a golden joy stick.,

I don't remember ever watching it. I do have a lot of issues of the magazine though.
