The most dedicated team in the business
The only scary thing about the GamesMaster crew is how horrifyingly dedicated we are to bringing you the best magazine around! Oh, and also Robin eats people sometimes. Rob Crossland
Sam Greer
Thanks to four whole days of snow, Rob got to indulge in one of his favourite hobbies this month: driving around empty roads in a 4x4 and feeling smug. He even made a fiver pulling someone else out of a snowdrift, thus doubling his monthly earnings.
Favourite horror game: Resident Evil
Favourite horror game: Alien: Isolation
Ian Evenden
With our usual subeditor Miriam off on a lovely peregrination around India, we’ve had to bring in hired gun Ian to fill her shoes and cover her desk with crumbs. Without someone to check our spelling and knock our words into shape, the magazine would be turtolly unreedabul.
Favourite horror game: Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice www.gamesradar.com/gamesmaster
We should have known better than to assign Sam a FInal Fantasy game to review. It’s reignited her obsession with maligned spin-off Lightning Returns, reducing all conversation to just a series of pitches for features about a pink-haired fashionista punching a god.
