The early issues of DC-UK contained a feature called 'Brain In A Jar', which was usually at the back of the magazine.
Each month, someone in the industry would choose the Dreamcast games they would want to be stuck with if they were simply a disembodied brain.

Our friends at @TheDCJunkyard recently ran a feature on the demise of DC-UK, including some reviews that never saw the light of day.
We were honoured to play a small part in the article.

DC-UK is fondly remembered as one of the best Dreamcast magazines. @LewisJFC's new deep dive uncovers the tragic story behind its sudden cancellation, with insights from the original team, plus the release of four reviews from the unreleased issue 21!

It's safe to say that DC-UK were disappointed with Blue Stinger, giving it only 3/10 in issue 2.
Have you played it, and did it live up to your expectations?

@TheDCJunkyard It was all SegaMags Matt on that occasion. I still remember him and myself (Marc) trawling through endless copies of CTW for information.
For most people that is boring. For us, it is fun!

Lewis from @TheDCJunkyard recently interviewed writing veteran Ed Lomas regarding the closure of the Official Dreamcast Magazine.
It is a fascinating read and part of a series that will look at the sudden closure of the Dreamcast magazines once Sega had pulled the plug.
Issue 22 of the UKโs Official Dreamcast Magazine was due on shelves in August 2001โฆ but it never arrived.
Lewis revisits ODMโs final issue (#21) and speaks to former Deputy Editor Ed Lomas to uncover what really happened to the lost Issue 22.
