Re: Our next podcast recording: The Legend of Zelda

I'm stuck for the first time. I'm fighting some sort of circular saw boss in a dungeon (it's the 5th or 6th one I've done so far). The old man said the boss hates a certain kind of noise, but buggered if I can work out how to kill it. I've got the sword, bow, boomerang, lamp, raft, ladder and bombs...

Re: Our next podcast recording: The Legend of Zelda

Been reading through this thread and decided to stick to commenting on the original The Legend of Zelda, keeping the upcoming episode in mind: My undying love for at least the console Zelda games really started with A Link to the Past, but me and my brother did indeed own and complete The Legend of ...

Re: Our next podcast recording: GoldenEye 007

So it's safe to assume I won't be able to read these articles out during the podcast... so here are some... GOLDENLINKS! It doesn't work, I'm sorry. Martin Hollis talks about his experience of creating Goldeneye https://t.co/PLEC3dT0sj Now Gamer did an interview with some of the key staff about mak...

Re: Our next podcast recording: GoldenEye 007

When Goldeneye 007 is being brought up in video game discussion, the typical conversation follows a pattern of fond remembrance of both the single player campaign and the mutiplayer deathmatches and musings about how it was the first good/great first person shooter for a console, followed by the con...

Half-Life came out in '98.

Re: Nintendo Wii U

I'd like the option to play TP with traditional controls GameCube style and the world not mirrored or Wii style 'mirror' mode with Wii motion controls. I'm sure they could implement the choice easily enough. In case you lovely forum folk haven't picked up on this yet, the Cane and Rinse podcast wil...

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

Well dammit, I'll join up for that episode if I have to! :lol: ... Even though I lack a refined British accent. EDIT: This is the last thing I'll post about Gradius in this thread, but I feel the game almost never gets its just due outside of Japan. In this crappy quality, film-the-screen video of t...

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

I would like to suggest the Gradius series. It is to 2D side scrolling shoot 'em ups what the Super Mario Bros. games are to 2D platformers (although it might be more accurate to state that adding R-Type completes that picture) I'll play along, from the first game to Gradius V and Gradius Rebirth an...

Re: SoP submissions *please read first post*

Hello all, I just recently discovered the Cane and Rinse podcast and have been listening to a bunch of episodes while working. I would like to start off posting here with suggesting a piece of music for the Sound of Play podcasts. It's the stage 1 theme of Assault Suits Valken / Cybernator. Composed...
