@ManxManuel @PeterGGreen1 @SteffanPowell @inel How did it feel lads mag? There was nothing smutty about it.

#PressXtoContinue @SteffanPowell @inel New question: Gamesmaster, good for gaming or total cringefest? Personally, I'd like more serious chat about games (like Press X) being broadcast, rather than a show reinforcing every stereotype levelled against people who play games...

@PeterGGreen1 @SteffanPowell @inel Interesting. Did you watch eps 1 and 2? There’s loads of contestants that don’t look like stereotypes. Regardless, no one’s looks are ever made fun off. I think it’s great they’re favouring people’s gaming skills over their looks. Telly’s usually so shallow, but it has substance.

@S1Raw @SteffanPowell @inel 2/3 - what "normal people" think gamers look like. However, I know many people who play games, who aren't overweight and pale men. I agree that both sex and race were equally represented, even if age wasn't. To digress slightly, I disliked the Educating Grado segments and the

@TreborRhurbarb Show him the new GamesMaster first, warm him into it.

Oisín, who hasn't quite got his head round the internet recently not existing yet, asked me and his mum what "gaming videos" we watched when we were kids... I genuinely fear his brain would instantaneously liquify if he saw 5 minutes of Gamesmaster or Bad Influence.

@CNormo @GamesMaster Did we watch the same show? The presenters, all of the contestants and even the celebs are gamers. No one is as basic as your definition there.

@S1Raw @GamesMaster I don’t feel celebs who maybe spend an hour or 2 on a mobile game or switch a gamer.

@Carl__Wade Eps 2 and 3 have some Joe Bloggs.

#GamesMaster is good an all, but where is Joe Blogs from down the street doing these challenges? It's all content creators and streamers. A bit of a let down to be honest 😐

@Lletnek That was episode 3. They started with Mario.

Wow. Just started watching the first Games Master remake… the first game they feature. FIFA. A predatory game that preys on people and kids with gambling mechanics. Not to mention I guarantee 99.9% of people tuning in don’t want to watch fifa. 🤦🏼

@CosyDunt Yeah, I love it. They’ve done a cracking job.

Is anyone watching the updated version of Games Master on Channel 4? Does anyone even remember it?!

@DaMisanthrope Even better.

I should probably catch up on the other episodes of GamesMaster, I trust they were as good as the first one?

@CNormo @GamesMaster Since when does gamer have to mean ‘really good’ gamer? Regardless, one of those women was a pro COD player and she was wicked it was just a stupidly hard challenge. What’s your qualification for gamer?

@S1Raw @GamesMaster You are joking right? The celebs called themselves ‘gamers’. They were all shite. There were 2 random women playing CoD poorly

“Satisfied” like that feeling after a big knees up.

😂

@Garbotron Fucking excellent. Really, really good.

Is this #GamesMaster reboot any good?

@welshwiZhard @Jacedafaceis @GamesMaster Meta’s sponsoring makes fuck all difference. The oculus is barely in it. Its spot on. Great show.

@tmcd677 Soulless!? Nooo, I’d recommend you keep watching. It really comes into its own and has SO MUCH soul. Not like anything else on TV.

Just watched Ep1. of new #Gamesmaster and honestly disappointed. Actually too much like the original, it feels lost in the 90's. Few attempts at update feel like "Top Gear wannabe". Completely soulless. Shame because they actually got the right person for Gamesmaster!

Ok, now its over, lets be frank here. The new #GamesMaster is SUPERB. I mean, outrageously good. Imagine how shit it could have been! TV never gets stuff like this right but its spot on and clearly from the views thousands of others feel the same. @E4Tweets full series for 2022?

@E4Tweets Obviously need more please @E4Tweets it’s too good to stop at 3. Way, way too good.

7pm tonight, the final episode of #GamesMaster! No, YOU'RE crying! 😭 Join us at 7pm, you won't regret it: youtube.com/watch?v=e-nbGz…

True.
