Now come on, you must have gotten too competitive at some point too! Tell us your stories!

Rob is a true competitor and I love it. He pops off when he’s winning and shows no mercy to kids. Almost brings a tear to my eye

Rosie’s ongoing denial of her own competitiveness for any other reason than the greater good is truly a sight to behold

I love how Rosie feels guilt for crushing an empty can but Rob is fine with destroying a young lads dream, if Jay moves to New Zealand we all know who to blame.

Rob taught Jay a harsh but valuable lesson: play to win - at everything. Be humble in victory and equally gracious in defeat, but always play to win.

Petition to bring Jay on the channel to challenge Rob to a rematch. This shall be his redemption arc.

This is what I love about this channel. You really get the feeling that they are actually all good friends. It's very wholesome.

Ash could easily be a videogame character herself.

Love hearing the BuddyGames shoutout. That charity stream was a lot of fun! And also, “39.14!” Remains the greatest moment in Access history.

I absolutely love how we're referring to it as 'when i did the 39.14' , it's that iconic

This is maybe my favourite ever Tuesday checklist, channel doesn’t feel forced ever just so natural. Love it. Rob you are a monster.

“No its my friends who are wrong” that’s the winners mind set lol

Robs friends are all in New Zealand, is that why he's always doing Lord of the rings impressions? Trying to be close to them in whatever way possible 😂😂

Cant wait to see those streams of Rob trying to beat Ash's score, also i think Rob's love of quoting Lotr probably convinced his friends to move to NZ, definitely wasn't to get as far away from Rob as humanly possible.

Very entertaining, as always! Rosie's feat of strength was very impressive, I wonder if she can tear aluminum foil as well...

it warms my heart when Nath is still somehow involved with the gang, even if we dont see him anymore.. also love to see that Rob vs Jay grudge match!

I actually had a similar experience to Rob. At university the lads in my drama class had a fifa tournament and it was all a casual relaxed affair. Until one of the lads started beating everyone else in a shall we say ungracious way (loud exclamation and arsery). He had beaten everyone else except me (second best at the time) and as we played Man City vs Chelsea, the room fell silent, everyone cheering me on without a noise…. I lost 1-0 in the 87th minute. I let myself down, I let my friends down, but most of all, I let God down

Just to let you guys know - my soul is yet to return to my body after you mentioned me on the Elden Ring stream. “JORDO BABYYYY!”

One of those episodes that I felt I was sitting there chatting with my friends 🙏

I love how "Rob beats a far inferior player at soccer videogame, 4-0" happens twice on this list.

My favorite highly competitive moment in PlayStation access history. in one of the Christmas mazes the 39.14 and it looked like rob was going to win but Rosie pulls the win at the late second and she stands up and shouts “ YESSSSSS!!!!! EAT IT ROBERT S PEARSON “

Rosie, be honest with yourself. 39.14 will live on in infamy with how passionate and competitive you were. Nothing, absolutely nothing could beat that. The enormous roar of success, the dismal look on Rob’s face, the howling laughter of Dave and Ash in the other room. That is the definition of competitiveness.

I can see Rob nodding in agreement with the classic Chapelle’s show sketch where Dave plays a terminally ill child in Street Hoops 😂

I'm not generally competitive, but once as a teenager I was staying over at a friend's (his brother's uni flat). We ended up playing 'Tekken Tag Tournament', winner stays on, with me, my friend, his bro and his flatmate. I hadn't played that specific game, but I failed to mention that I had played all three 'Tekken' games on PS1, to the point of muscle memory. Safe to say 'winner stay on' turned into 'someone beat David'.

I'm decent at games but I try not to be competitive. It just reminds me of those loud few in my family. You know the ones..

Ash's time COUNTS - it is clearly stated that "you can't come back to it later" ...fair enough... but she NEVER LEFT and as such is the rightful champion!

It's not even surprising that Rob would destroy young child in Fifa and wouldn't let him win. Maaaaan, that had to be the greatest BBQ party 🤣

I remember introducing kingdom hearts to my friend when the ps4 versions had come out, I loved it since ps2 and he came to love it on ps4. In kingdom hearts 2 at the start there are these mini games. There's a skateboarding one where you have to deliver papers to people and it times you. This game doesn't have online leaderboards so we just sort of incited this competition ourselves somehow. We used the ps4 screenshot feature. He got a fast time and shared it, probably not intending anything competitive. I sent one back shortly after, beating it. You see where this went. It became a competition that took weeks to end, we were booting up kingdom hearts 2 just to play that one mini game that didn't even have a leaderboard or anything. ... ... I mean, I won obviously!

I completely agree with Rob. You can't just LET them win. The win must be real and earned for it to have any value. It otherwise creates an artificial sense of self worth which is too easily shattered and may never recover.

While my tale is not quite as destructive as Rob, it almost got me in trouble in my internship. During my internship, me and 9 others would work on campus during the morning - web development internship at a company that partnered with our uni to give the first opportunity to some students - and carry on with our regular studies at afternoon and the evenings after. Well, there was always a one hour lunch break after the internship, so we played web browser games to kill time. One of those games was puzzle/platformer game called Exit Path where you had to avoid traps and complete the level as fast as possible. Me and one other classmate quickly became WAY faster than anyone else, and began seriously competing for the fastest time. At first, it was during lunch break... then it was during the early classes... then during work. All while trying to avoid getting caught. It nearly happened at work sometimes - got caught by one person who mostly found it funny and didn't report it - and happened during class a couple times. Sadly, it ended when I set my best full playthrough time at 3.19 and my friend at 3.17... I couldn't beat him, and that was over 10 years ago and I haven't fully recovered yet.

This was one of the best videos y'all have put out. Comedic, banter with a sprinkle of a little banter 😂. AND NATH WAS EVEN MENTIONED ON IT! Ahh he us still with us in spirit lol great vid y'all

This was Hilarious! Those 2 Rob stories have now been cemented in Access Lore lol

We need a Rob v Jay re-match 10 years later.

These videos always brighten my mood after a long day at work :D

Crazy how so many of us had the same experience with pes and groups of our mates. Rip pes

The first time me and my brother got our hands on Carmageddon 2 (we both loved Carmageddon) my brother got to the level with The Big Dump. One of those giant trucks they use in quarries and such. In Carmageddon 2 you could buy every vehicle. To my brothers shock The Big Dump was also buyable. But it was ridiculously expensive, no way you'd have that much money with regular play. If I remember right it was 8 million. My brother was annoyed but played on. I was a few tracks behind him and discovered that the stat increase power ups could be maxed out to some degree based on your level. If that happened each one would earn you 50.000. So I spend a couple of days playing the same level over and over until I had 8 million and could buy the thing. My brother was very annoyed.

Vodsquad here. Rob posted a time of 39.08 on Frozen Run on the Chrishi Mashi special

Rob's friends being in New Zealand (or Hobbiton as Dave put it haha) explains the frequent Gollum and Gandalf impressions then heehee.

Best Tuesday checklist in a long time :D

Hi, totally unrelated to the Tuesday Checklist but I think this may be an interesting topic to discuss? Like we all know how much Rob adores water graphics, and geaphics get a lot of attention in the gaming community but there is another part of game design that kinda gets ignored and overshadowed. I've been remembering how good the sound design is in Horizon: Forbidden West. Like just the audio feedback when you hit certain parts of a machine and like footsteps on sand, snow, metal, etc and stuff. We can talk about gaming music and the jaw dropping moments it can induce and just make a scene memorable. But like the sound designers deserve more love cause they add so much to the game without it being obvious. It's a subtle art that adds so much to the experience! What are your'alls favorite sound design choices?

My brother challenged me to MK11. I didn't have a Switch at the time and didn't have any MK games...I picked Scorpion because when I worked in a call center that was my main on Injustice. By brother was so certain he'd beat me...until the fifth time he lost. All with different characters. He got one round on me with Sub-Zero, but I won the next two rounds and beat him in that match. He didn't ask if I had been playing any fighting games. He asked specifically if I had played MK recently (last time I played MK at that moment was a rented copy of Mortal Kombat: Deception back in 2003). He asked me how I was so good when I hadn't played in years. I told him two things he didn't realize. Scorpion's move set hasn't changed that much since MK made it to Playstation...and I mained Scorpion in Injustice at work. I constantly played against one person who always beat me...except for one time.

The Tuesday Checklist is the best part of every Wednesday going towards Thursday. And then it's almost Friday again for the feature! :D

I love Ash's entries - so poetic!

Call Rob crushing a small child in a game is hilarious

Rosie Caddick has been one of my fav youtubers for YEARS!!!!

Astros playroom was so much fun and I love get the platinum trophy

You can add Rosie sitting on Ash during platifrenzy and stealing the win to the list

LOVE this! I need friends as addicted to gaming as you guys. LOL!

To be fair, Rosie crushing an empty can is pretty intense for her

This was so entertaining I wish I could like it twice. Rob, never stop being you.

Rob, my most competitive also came out in a similar situation. A Fifa tournament among the dorm residents at The University at Buffalo. I was playing as The U.S.A., my friend Argentina. In a match against him, I got point blank shot after point blank shot and his keeper somehow made the save EVERY time! I got so frustrated that I actually gave him a bit of a whack across the back of the head. .. not my best moment.

"He may have had a cry...in the car..." lmao!!!!

need more stories like this Dave lol

Really enjoyed this one, guys!

Love the Principal Skinner reference at the end.

I was just like Rob on World Snooker Championship 2009 for ps3. I played my brother, and both of us having grown up with Snooker and watched it since we were 6 years old knew how to play like professionals. So we played, and I beat him easily, think it was 10 frames to 4. At that time he was struggling to beat the computer despite having a positional aid for where the white ball would end up after each shot. After we played he never lost another tournament, his rise in standard of play was phenomenal, he says playing me was the best thing he ever did on that game, because after that his brain started working better. He'd been very good at other snooker games before it was like a mental block that he had, I unlocked his true potential, at that time I was winning regularly online, out of 110 games I lost 4 times legit, a few disconnects, and win just over 100 games so I was an excellent player, hence why I went online because the AI just couldn't get anywhere near me so I needed to challenge myself. Almost overnight something clicked and he became a totally different player, hardened up by getting slaughtered by me, on purpose, no remorse, no sympathy at all, I can totally understand where Rob is coming from.

Literally, my most favourite Tuesday Checklist.😂

I love that you guys got competitive with one another over Astro on a video in which you are confessing your moments of being over competitive.

Rob is so good that he sent all of his friends away to New Zealand lol!

20 minute video? Hell yeah!

I've had 2 games where I got very competitive, 1 was playing Liars Dice in RDR online, where I had gotten to the top rank on the leaderbaord and held it for over a year, there were several other players who were trying to get to the top spot, all were cheating either by playing against themselves using a 2nd PS3 or by leaving the game the moment they were confirmed to have lost, this would glitch the game and they wouldn't get a loss on their record. But this constant having to play upwards of 50 games a day in order to try to maintain a lead over players I knew were cheating took the fun out of the game for me so I eventually just stopped playing and then went to NFS The Run where I proceeded to go through 9 dual shock controllers in a year.

We out here in New Zealand. I'll bet damn near anything I'm the most southern subscriber in the world you have ✌️

Imagine if Rob had done it with Crystal Palace, he would have been even louder!

I actually exactly knew what Rosie was gonna talk about from her very descriptive intro lol

'I am going to explode, Ashley' hahahaha, by far, my favourite moment ever! #4 on onesie

I don't get competitive very often, since I mostly play single player, but I guess the one time I did get very competitive, was when I was trying to be the developer time trials on CTR. Initially I jumped into them thinking 'I don't expect to beat these any time soon, I'll just be happy with improvement'. By the end of it, I had gotten so competitive that beating the times was not enough. I had to crush them, and I even ended up revisiting some of the tracks I beat earlier to improve upon them.

Jay vs Rob: Rematch!

im not a competitive person. my ideology is, that i either win by luck or beating someone thats worse than me. i dont see anything honourable in either.

One time i was playing Mario party 4 i think it was on the GameCube with my sisters and friends. I told my teammate what to do to get to the star and he decided he wanted to do something else for some reason what end up in the other team getting the star. I was screaming and talking so loud, that my father came rushing into the room to ask what is going on. It ended up in shutting the game down and doing something else untill i calmed down. I have broken controllers and screamed at the tv back in the old days when i was alone a lot of times, but that was the only time i got way too competitive in a game lol

I missed the Nathan Snake moment in Rosie's confession. :D

Rob and Jay should have a rematch live

Woof that’s pretty brutal Rob. Maybe that’s why the CTR defeats at EGX were so sobering

Rosie's only competition is herself. Rob has given a whole new meaning to "he's learning." Ash-tro's Playroom took the office by storm. David 'got good' Jackson is just chill. ...and Rob's friends retreated to the Shire rather than face his football prowess.

Love this video ❤️

Rob, I'm with you on that, except it was FIFA. My friend TwoShoes and I used to play each other and it was always very close, he'd win a few & then I would. We arranged a FIFA tournament brought a few mediocre people in and charged everyone a fiver to play. Winner takes the pot, knowing it would come down to me & TwoShoes. I beat him buy scoring the most sweatiest cut back goal ever & screamed the house down.

Oh my god I can’t even count how many times I ran those time trials until I was close to beating the top scores haha

Opens with old school PES, likes video immediately

Rule #42 of the handbook clearly states..."if any participant is a no-show, rage quits or forfeits a match, the opposition automatically wins 3-0." I hear by declare Robert "Too Competitive" Pearson, the Ultime PES Champion 🏆

Where are you, Jeff?

I remember the first time my friend and I had played smash bros brawl… I had been pretty good with Kirby or Luigi and I usually won.. keeping in mind we were both still new at the game… but then my friend picked some guy with a sword (Marth) who I didn’t rlly know much about yet at the time. I carried on my usual ways, but what’s this?? My hits aren’t landing anymore.. he’s destroying me now.. I was SURE I hit him that time 🤔 I excused myself to the bathroom where I stood there thinking.. he’s not THAT good at dodging.. it’s almost as if I’m being punished every time I land a hit--- omg it’s a counter! I came back from the bathroom and I was right 😌 counter this! I said… and my victories continued once again.. the nerve

Lmao Dave’s entry was hilarious, but also did not surprise me at all

I didn't think Rob reputation could get any worse...well, I was wrong!🤣

His name is Jeff!

I’m pretty sure me and my friends get competitive when we all play Gang Beasts together. Those are fun times

Lol great video, enjoyed that

If Rob and Ash ever fight for the crown then it 100% now has to be astro's playroom

I didn’t know me and Rob had so much in common! 😂😂

Eat it Robert S. Pearson!!!!

I remember Nath bringing his son to the access office playing Fifa or something or I'm having a Mandela effect lol Also remember him doing some segments in access. Time flies.

This makes me want to play Astro Bot again. Such a brilliant game. Edit: How do you guys feel about this eFootball shenanigans? As a long time PES fan, it's gutting to not have a ML going.

Oh god. I love the Rob stories

This is a great video 👋I love Acsess

I'll go first, because that's what winners do - Robert Pearson 2022

Rosie's was such a humblebrag 😅

Rob's a menace!

When it comes to video games I'm absolutely not competitive, not even against the game itself. But when it comes to board games and the like I am like Rob with FIFA. I once was with some colleagues at one of their homes, one brought her five year old daughter, we were playing some reflex game where you had to make a rotating plane jump over your hurdles and once all of your hurdles had been hit and thrown off the board you had lost. All colleagues already were out, it was just me and the little girl, each with one hurdle left. That battle must have lasted for 15 minutes. Lol And she then lost. Well, at least I then pretended like I was some kind of champion at that game and she my most worthy opponent. In the end she didn't even seem upset about it. Not so sure about my colleagues though.

Time for a roadtrip to NZ Rob.

Love Rosie's cute goofball energy on this one

I crushed two empty Coca-Cola cans just now… for Rosie.

Ash that was poetry
