“Listen!”

In which a panel of Leon, Darren, Karl and Leah Haydu consider what the fifth The Legend of Zelda title brought to both the series and videogaming in general. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remains one of the best-reviewed games in the history of the medium, but how do we feel about the game some 18 years after its Nintendo 64 launch? As well as our own perspectives – then and now – of versions older and newer, we also hear from members of the Cane and Rinse community, including some heartwarming Ocarina of Time memories, some tales of inspiration provided by the game and a dozen Three Word Reviews.

Do you have an opinion about this particular game or maybe about our podcast in general? Then why not venture into our forum and leave us your feedback. Whilst there you could also interact with our ever-growing and friendly community, in discussing past, present and future videogames (and lots of other stuff too!) and perhaps even arrange some games with like-minded individuals. Sound good? Come and say hello at The Cane and Rinse forum

Here’s an additional 14 mins of conversation that didn’t make the final cut of the podcast:

The highest rated videogame of all-time (according to MetaCritic), emulated on PC (as you can see from the on-screen mouse pointer – apologies for that – and the ability to fast-forward):

Captured from Darren’s very own gold Australian PAL cartridge from the original Nintendo 64 release (hence the washed-out look – apologies for that):

If you like these Quick Rinse videos you can find many more (plus a few other bits and bobs) over on the Official Cane and Rinse YouTube channel.
