To celebrate SPOOKY SEASON (and to keep this RSS feed alive during the downtime between the end of Under Consoletation and the launch of UCP next year), here is a previously Patreon-exclusive episode where Luke and Ash - happy as can be - review The Raggy Dolls episode "The Dark Wood.

We've made it! The final episode of Under Consoletation: The GamesMaster Podcast.

And to celebrate this momentous occasion, Luke and Ash sit on the sofa to count down the top 10 episodes of GamesMaster as voted for... by themselves and their scoring system. What will take the number one position and be crowned the greatest episode of the greatest video game challenge TV show?

Also, there's a tease for what's next...

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.
