==Review segments== From the very first episode, ''GamesMaster'' included reviews of forthcoming titles. In an attempt to give the programme some authority and get the gaming press on their side, as well as eliminate the need for extra staff to review games, the reviews featured a host of magazines journalists from the publishing house [[EMAP]]. This meant the programme could pool the collective opinions of magazines like ''[[Mean Machines]]'', ''[[C&VG]]'' and ''[[ACE (games magazine)|ACE]]''. However, by series 5, it was decided that the reviews would be better presented by two of the programme's co-commentators, namely Rik Henderson and [[Dave Perry]]. It brought a much-needed stability to the format{{Citation needed|reason=who says it was much-needed? i was happy with the original format.|date=December 2011}} and some interesting banter between the reviewers. Series 6 also featured Rik, who was now joined by Ed Lomas, while series 7, due to time constraints and Dave Perry having resigned from the programme's cast (after complaining on-air about being "set up" during a ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' challenge), employed two of its own research staff to present the slot, including Richard Pitt.
