S08E03 REVISITED - FIFA '22 / Street Fighter V: Champion Edition / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe / Tekken 7
As quickly as it returned, it was over once again. Here is the final (for now) episode of GamesMaster, as Shellzz takes on a near-impossible FIFA '22 challenge, Ty faces his Ty Breaker on Tekken 7, and Little Lad Larry races Elz The Witch on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Plus, two lads scrub their way through Street Fighter V: Champion Edition with more than the Golden Joystick on the line.
Rab reviews the Evercade VS, the colleagues get to grips with Valheim, Ty and his mates do some YouTube content on the Meta Quest II, and Grado learns to punch a cybernetic demon version of Scotland's Final Boss, Maggie Thatcher, in the face on Thatcher's Techbase.

Customer Reviews
What’s a Gamesmaster?
I’m not from the UK, I’ve never seen Gamesmaster and truth be told I’m not really into video games.
If like me you fit this description then my advice is please give this a chance.
I started listening to this as I really enjoy Luke Owens’ work on Wrestletalk and what I soon found was he and co-host Ash Versus are lovely guys who love this subject matter.
This isn’t just a very well produced run through of a TV series from the 90’s, it’s nostalgia in its purist form. They talk about the number 1 movie and song from each week. They share stories from their childhoods. Hell even the most recent Christmas episode is them looking through the 1993 Argos catalogue!
They have also posted an episode of them reviewing an episode of The Crystal Maze which was awesome!
These are two men that I would love to meet for craft beers, have a go at playing some retro video games and talk about movies and music with
Thank you and Enjoy
