Syberia II – Cane and Rinse No.665

“It was really a very beautiful journey.

Gran Turismo and Gran Turismo 2 – Cane and Rinse No.664

“The greatest racing game of all time is coming.” From simple beginnings as one of around 100 pitches to Sony seniors, turning into a flagship Sony series selling upwards and above 90 million copies. These games have their origins in early-90s cartoon kart genre, and now boast to be the self proclaimed, "greatest racing game of all time". In this issue, host Rich and his co-drivers Karl, Tom and Tony start at the beginning of Sony's Gran Turismo series with the two original PlayStation (PS1) outings Gran Turismo and Gran Turismo 2, to discuss their legacy as both racing games and love letters to motorsport. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_664.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

Resident Evil 4 (2023) – Cane and Rinse No.663

“Where’s everyone going? Bingo?” We realised there haven't been enough Cane and Rinse podcasts dedicated to Resident Evil 4, so here we are. Leon, Brian, Leah and Sean once again invade the mysterious Spanish (?) village of the so-called Ganados, to once again rescue 'Baby Eagle' THE PRESIDENT'S DAUGHTER. Along with a broad spread of opinions from the Patreon and forum, the panelists endeavour to convey their experiences with this 2023 remake both in its own right, and as an update to the widely-celebrated 2005 original. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_663.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

Quake II – Cane and Rinse No.662

“Proceed north to big gun area.” Behold the Bitterman, in id Software's archetypal 'boomer shooter' sequel, Quake II. Strogg-blasting vets Leon, Chris O'Regan, Darren and Karl - along with contributions from the Cane and Rinse community - recount their bloody campaigns through Quake II's 1997 PC original, the somewhat miraculous console ports to N64 and PS1, as well as the much more recent Nightdive remaster package, including DLC episodes and an all-new chapter from Machinegames. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_662.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Dead Space (2023) – Cane and Rinse No.661

Cut off their limbs.” Perhaps not the most pressing candidate for the remake treatment, nevertheless, EA Motive found itself remaking 2008's sci-fi horror shooter Dead Space for 'current gen' in 2023. Leon and Jon - along with contributors for the Cane and Rinse community - consider the changes and differences from the original to the all-singing, all-dancing update. Was the whole project worthwhile? Listen in and find out what we think. Please note that, due to events beyond our control, we lost an audio track from this recording which meant it was edited as a two-person show rather than its original three-person line-up, which resulted in the shorter run time. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_661.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Star Wars: Dark Forces – Cane and Rinse No.660

“This could be interesting.” Star Wars + DOOM = awesome success. A simple enough equation for mid-90s LucasArts, but is there more to Dark Forces than that? Leon, Chris Worthington, Darren and Tony blast and puzzle their way through this first-person shooter adventure, with missives from Cane and Rinse's community alliance along the way. From the MS-DOS original to the recent Nightdive remaster, we have all planet-destroying bases covered. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_660.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Smash TV – Cane and Rinse No.659

“Good luck! You’ll need it!” The twin-stick shooter never fully caught on in the arcade's golden age, and yet, some years after the beloved Robotron 2084, Eugene Jarvis and his team returned to that particular mechanical interface wellspring for another go round, with 1990's spiritual successor Smash TV. Leon, Jesse, Michiel and community contributors scream bloody murder at Smash TV's ultraviolent, loud, frenetic, brutal and relentless dystopian 1999 gameshow. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_659.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Minishoot’ Adventures – Cane and Rinse No.658

"Wake up little one. The corruption has emerged… The Unchosen is back!" In this issue of Cane and Rinse, Chris, Jon, Leah and Sean discuss 2024's Minishoot' Adventures. A notable PC/Mac exclusive (at the time of recording), made by SoulGame Studio. This top-down action adventure borrows heavily from The Legend of Zelda and mixes it with bullet-dodging, dexterity-based gameplay normally found in bullet hell shoot 'em ups. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_658.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Half-Life: Alyx – Cane and Rinse no.657

"We just gotta get to the vault, get the weapon, kick the Combine off Earth — super easy — and they're — and there's sandwiches, there's gonna be sandwiches…" The oft-cited standard bearer of VR gaming.  Half-Life: Alyx offered gamers near total immersion in the Half-Life universe when many were experiencing the first Covid-19 lockdown.  The game carried the weight of being the first Half-Life game in 13 years and the reason to purchase a Valve Index headset. Did it bear up under that weight? http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_657.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

“Hi. Why are you here?” Our Tony's nomination for the 14th year of podcasts is 2007's first-person survival horror, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl. Leon, Jon and James join him in immersing themselves in this notoriously demanding and spiky - if ultimately rewarding - FPS.

Tunic – Cane and Rinse No.655

“Dear Player. You've come a long way, haven't you?” Lead developer Andrew Shouldice stuffed every single corner of Tunic's world with secrets and mysteries, and created a wonderfully faithful, detailed and devious retro-style game manual to help and/or baffle players.

Segare Ijiri – Cane and Rinse No.654

“It's big.” Presented explicitly as the world's first "stupid game" or "baka game", Segare Ijiri is a pretty well known cultural touchstone in Japan, but virtually unknown outside of it, even among fans of Japanese gaming obscura. Michiel, Brian, Leah and Sean attempt to cross language and cultural barriers to delve into this strange piece of software... and surprisingly discover meaning in what was purposefully created as something meaningless. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_654.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Paperboy – Cane and Rinse No.653

“Now you have a friend in the paper business.” A vintage game about an anachronistic job delivering a dying medium. Atari's arcade hit Paperboy is 40! Leon, Brian, Chris Worthington, Dan and community contributors grip tasselled BMX handlebars and brave the gamut of suburban challenges faced daily by our intrepid news disseminator. As is the custom for these type of shows, we also hear of its many conversions, ports, spin-offs and sequels for home systems and handhelds. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_653.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

It is your choice whether you will salt or scab. Follow Ryan, Chris, James and Jon into the perplexing but provocative pillar of the modern videogame avant-garde, David Kanaga's enigmatic Oikospiel Book I.

“Shouldn't have wished to live in more interesting times.” We conclude our thirteenth year of podcasts by covering the all-conquering, 2023 game of the year awards-sweeping, Baldur's Gate III. Leon, Jay, Leah and Rich - along with contributions from the mighty Cane and Rinse community, attempt to do justice to - and even pick a few holes in - this cosmically well-regarded RPG. From our relationships with the characters, to our relationships with each other in co-op mode, and to our experiences with the deep and flexible gameplay systems, we endeavour to discuss as much of Larian's behemoth as possible. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_650.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Syberia – Cane and Rinse No.649

“Automatons do not have bugs, Kate Walker. They simply display functional idiosyncracies.” In the aftermath of the golden age of graphic adventure games, the early 2000s offered plenty of ammunition for those who declared the genre to be dead. Microids was intent on changing the narrative when it released spiritual successor to cult-hit Amerzone, Syberia.  Chris Worthington, James, Michiel and Tony ask themselves if it was successful.  http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_649.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

Marble Madness – Cane and Rinse No.645

“EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG” Mark Cerny's first full project as a prodigious teen game creator (after coding a 'mushroom growing algorithm' for Millipede) was Atari's surreal and challenging Marble Madness. Leon, Brian and Chris Worthington run all six courses, albeit over considerably longer than the two odd minutes in which it's possible to beat the game. Along with community contributors, we also take a look at the hit arcade game's many home and handheld conversions, as well as a slew of clones and spiritual successors, from Bobby Bearing to Kororinpa. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_645.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

JuJu Densetsu (Toki) – Cane and Rinse No.644

“The evil hand of BASHTAR has seized the lovely MIHO.” Representing the tiny overlap in the Venn diagram of at least two niche subgenres (prehistoric jungle platformers/games with simian protagonists), Juju Densetsu (or Toki) is also a fairly pedestrian, memory-based platform/shooter. Leon, Chris Worthington, Dan and Toki-lover Michiel muse upon why this one has been condemned to apparent obscurity, despite receiving some acclaim, multiple home conversions and even a 'modern' remake. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_644.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Manifold Garden – Cane and Rinse No.643

"..." Installation artist, juggler, balloon artist and first-time game developer William Chyr told himself it would take three months to design a Portal-sized puzzle game. Seven years later, he released a 'counterfactual physics game' that captures the spirit of both M.C. Escher's mind-bending work and the Paris scene in Christopher Nolan's Inception. Thomas, Brian and Chris Worthington chat about the impossible spaces, the minimalist vibes, and puzzle mechanics of this striking game. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_643.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Perfect Dark Zero – Cane and Rinse No.642

“If you make like you’re a DeathMatch hotshot you should be able to bluff your way into the party.” After a tumultuous few years of company takeovers and platform swaps, Rare's Perfect Dark Zero landed as an Xbox 360 console exclusive launch title. Leon, Darren (former Rare), Ryan (Xbox employee) and community contributors pick the prequel apart, 19 years on from its release.

Dragon Age: Inquisition – Cane and Rinse No.641

“If you love a character, you give them pain, ruin their lives, make them suffer.” Just ahead of the release of the fourth instalment in BioWare's fantasy RPG series, we finally get around to scrutinising the third game in the series - Dragon Age: Inquisition. Leon, Brian, Leah and Tony have quested long, scouring the plains of Thedas to explore the game's systems and characters - intimately. As usual we also have correspondents from the far-flung corners of the wastes, reporting back to the war room with their own findings. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_641.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

"Throw me back." What better way to spend time in the ocean than to fish while trying not to succumb to ancient malices from the deep? For this is apparently what is on offer with 2023's indie darling, Dredge. Chris O'Regan with James and Brian - along with contributions from the Cane and Rinse listenership – tell tall tales of fishes larger than a house they 'allegedly' caught, while fighting off stress induced fatigue in this boat-bound action adventure.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy – Cane and Rinse No.639

“Good speech. Blast him.” Marvel's relatively obscure comic book sci-fi misfits received a huge boost in recognition with their first MCU movie in 2014. Following a sequel and a Telltale series, Square Enix tasked their Eidos Montreal studio with making an action game starring the underdog antiheroes. Leon, Brian, Karl and Leah team up to celebrate the highs and nitpick at the lows of the resulting romp. Along with contributions from the Cane and Rinse community, we also consider the stink that the reception to Marvel's Avengers had left in the air, and how that affected the perception of this rather different experience. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_639.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Vampire Killer / Castlevania: Bloodlines / The New Generation – Cane and Rinse No.638

“TWO YOUNG VAMPIRE HUNTERS SET OUT TO FULFILL THEIR DESTINY….” New protagonists for a new era. Initially, officially, considered to be a gaiden, Konami's second game entitled Vampire Killer was arguably canonised as Castlevania: Bloodlines in the USA. Leon, Leah and Sean talk whips, spears, level design and boss fights. Even the always excellent contributions from the Cane and Rinse community can't persuade us to spend much time on the neutered European/Australian PAL version, robbed of this instalment's signature pace and blood. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_638.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

Vampire Survivors – Cane and Rinse No.636

"Thank you Poe, but the vampire is in another coffin.” Vampire Survivors started off as a solo developer effort that turned into a huge indie hit. A compulsive experience that employs various slots-style visual and audio cues to give upgrades more 'juice', the game is nevertheless an incredibly generous affair with rock bottom store prices and no microtransactions. Thomas, James and Sean – along with contributors from the listening community – chat through the basic, charming visuals, the gameplay loop, and the ethics of tricks borrowed from world of gambling. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_636.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.
