“Toot-Toot Sonic Warrior deep in space and time, Toot-Toot Sonic Warrior forever in your mind” Our third Sonic the Hedgehog show comes on a shiny silver plastic platter, as we alight upon Sonic CD. Leon, Tony, returning guest Dan Clark and community correspondents attempt to decipher SEGA's time warp mechanics, 3D special stages and races with the sinister Metal Sonic (not Mecha Sonic who is a very different thing). Plus of course, we join in the 30 year old music debate as we muse upon the merits of both the Japanese and North American OSTs... http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_584.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

“There are no free lessons here.” Fore! Ryan, Jon, Sean and Jesse tee up for a bunker-chipping, birdie-flopping, caddyshacking conversation about Australian indie darling Golf Story. Does this game land cleanly on the green, or is it a bogey? This conversation will go a fairway toward answering that question. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_583.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.

"Questions about whose hands might one day hold my Myst Book are unsettling to me.” After 30 years, we release Chris, James, Jesse and Jon from their exile in D’ni. As they step, blinking and nervous, into the light, they find themselves on a strange island. This wonderful place is a gateway to puzzling worlds of history, influence, and mystery. Join us for a walk around the first of Cyan’s signature franchise: join us on Myst. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_582.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

“PULL IT OUT OF THE SKY!” Star Wars: The Force Unleashed was marketed as an opportunity for players to live out their ultimate (Dark) Jedi power fantasies. Did the game succeed? Well, it certainly did commercially, leading to a sequel just two years later. Leon, Brian, Jon and community contributors polish their holocrons in a bid to convey what was successful and what wasn't about LucasArts' brace of stormtrooper-flinging lightsaber-fests. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_581.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.

“Goodest idea, underqualified gun man!” Colt and Juliana go head to head, life or death, day after and day and for what? Leon, Tom, Tony and Jay relive Arkane Lyon's recursive immersive sim and, with some broadly rather negative community correspondence, attempt to explain where they feel that the ambitions of "DEATHLOOP" were met, and also where they fell short of flourishing to full fruition. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_580.mp3   Music featured in this issue: 1.
