In part 2 of our Life is Strange series, we tackle Episode 2: Out of Time. Our predictions are starting to go hella wrong already. Unfortunately, no singing in this one but plenty of chatter about this intriguing narrative adventure game.

I’m a newcomer to the Cane And Rinse podcast, but wow, this is the video game podcast I’ve been trying to find for years.

They put in the research and the effort to really dive into games that I always feel is missing.

Massive recommend

NEW EPISODE! We kick off a new series on Don't Nod's 2015 episodic narrative adventure game, Life is Strange. In episode 1 we, fittingly, take a deep dive into the game's episode 1, Chrysalis. How wrong will our predictions turn out to be? Tune in to find out

A shorter than expected series but it was still so much fun to record.
NEW EPISODE! Scheduling issues meant that we couldn't record as many episodes on Bloodborne as we would have liked. In this final episode in the series, we take a more general look at our feelings on the game.

Star Wars: Dark Forces - The Cane and Rinse videogame podcast
Star Wars + DOOM = awesome success. A simple enough equation for mid-90s LucasArts, but is there more to Dark Forces than that?
