Welcome back to The Dusty Cartridge Podcast, where we take a time-out to make the shocking discovery that one of us didn’t know McDonalds serves strawberry sundaes. We’re back with a bang this week as we’re joined by Alex Walker and Dan Walker to discuss the rumours of an always-online Xbox, our thoughts on BioShock Infinite, Disney shutting down LucasArts and much more!

After finishing games made by Ninja Theory, I find myself thinking ‘that was so, damn … close … to being perfect’. They completely nail so many aspects of their games that the small imperfections really start to shine, and it threatens to unbalance my whole review. Read More »
I had a lot of problems with the story in DmC: Devil May Cry, but none so poignant or heartfelt as my problem with Vergil. His voice-acting was good, he looked so similarly dissimilar to Dante that it really did seem like the two were twins, yet, by attempting to provide further flesh and depth to the character, Ninja Theory threw out the balance that the original essence behind Devil May Cry had managed to build.

I argued in a previous article that reboots were a necessary part of pop culture, that some memes and characters represent themes and ideas so strongly that it’s almost impossible to think of one without the other.

In the saddest news that’s ever faced the history of the globe, it was announced that the PlayStation 2, a console that reached no less than 155 million units sold, was to cease production. The Dusty Cartridge crew has had some great memories of the blue and black box, so we’ve given them the chance to reminisce about their favourite titles from the now long-gone era. Read More »
2012 left us with nothing but disappointment. The world didn’t end, THQ went under and the Wii U’s launch was about as much fun as erectile dysfunction. But 2012 is dead. DEAD, and 2013 is set to not only be one of the greatest years of gaming, but perhaps the best of all time, and here’s why! Read More »
When I think about DmC objectively, I would have to conclude that the reboot has taken the franchise back a step or two. Dante’s usual quips have been replaced by somewhat awkwardly delivered vulgarity, changing between weapons and fighting styles is nowhere near as smooth as it was in either Devil May Cry 3 or 4. But I love it. I love it so, so much. Read More »
