GamesMaster is a computer and video game magazine that was published in the U.K. from 1993 until 2018. It was originally a spin-off of a TV show by the same name but the show ended years before the magazine. It was also published in Lebanon between 1996 and 1999 and the Philippines between 2003 and 2009. Issue Number 1 from January 1993 includes:
- Network - Bong! New magazine launched (oh, you're already reading it!) Bong! Game Genie and Action Replay arrive for SNES. Bong! Cheap Sega carts on the way? bong! Etc. Bong!
- Charts - What's hot and what's, if you must, "not" in the stores. Plus the chance to vote your fave game to the top of the Readers' Chart.
- Dominik's Big Purple Column - The big barrel of double entendres has its bottom roughly scraped in this, the first of a series of frighteningly unhinged missives from everyone's favorite redcoat.
- TV News - Who's on when? What challenges are coming up? This is the definitive guide, as you might expect, to what's happening on GamesMaster over the next few weeks. Plus: what on EARTH is that git Douglas doing on the telly?
- Games Arena - Two young men, one with a stinking cold and the other just stinking, face off for the dust-up of a lifetime on, you guessed it, Streetfighter 2. Think you can do better? Well here's your chance...
- Previews - Take a sneaky peek at forthcoming stormers for your system. This month we've got Mr. Nuts, Cool World, James Pond 3, Gunship 2000, Star Wars and, as they say, "more"!
- Win The Ultimate Games Station! - If you thought that your car rent games system was smart think again. Here's the chance to own every 16-bit console, and a bundle of software for each. PLUS: an ultra-smart color TV with full stereo sound to play on.
- Reviews - For a full list of reviews; eyes right!
- Subs - Scribble, snip, send, save, smile.
- Survey - A million miles away from the skull-implodingly dull surveys you're used to filling out, this one will actually improve your state of mind. No, really.
- Win A Bloody Enormous Telly! - 28 throbbing inches of gristle, sorry, screen. That's what's on offer in our Comet Game Zone Sonic 2 Competition.
- Tips Zone - From gaming geek to software Schwarzenegger in one super-easy step.
- Christmas Start Here! - It would be a grumpy old scrooge of a magazine that didn't offer some lighthearted Christmas fun and games, and a bah humbugging reader who didn't enter into the spirit.
- Secret Level... - That's right. Lurking in this issue of GamesMaster is our very own secret level! Can you find it? Can you beat it?
...and more!
