I was always quite fond of Games World on Sky.

It was the first I'd seen of Bob Mills, and when they expanded the episodes (S2 I think) it was great fun, even if it did seem to stray away from the actual games a bit. Big Boy Barry's joypad was genuinely funny.

My mate Matthew was on Gamesworld once. He won the week but failed on the final challenge and didn't win anything.

Ace. I watched a few of these a couple of weeks ago and Gamesmaster is still brilliant.

Here's where my memory is a little hazy, but I seem to recall that not many people actually won anything.

You've said that on here before and I'm sure we had a conversation about building one.

I'm going to one day but it might only be a desktop cabinet. I'm thinking of gutting my Xbox Hori arcade stick to fit in it.

I'm loathe to watch these lest my fond memories of 'Bad Influence!' turn out to be false.

A quick view of Bad Influence reveals that indeed it is best left in the past. Games Master hasn't fared quite as badly.

And yet it's still remembered. Those were the days, eh?
