23 - Cannon Fodder

Form a line at the bottom of Boot Hill and wait to be waved in to the disturbing fun of Cannon Fodder! In this episode, we learn a bit about Sensible Software, how this game ended up on the Jaguar, and how this version differs from the many other ports. We check out numerous reviews from both sides of the Atlantic, propose an alternate control scheme (with the benefit of hindsight), ponder the highly-questionable ESRB rating, and analyze the infamous theme song.

Also included is feedback from Gerald, Philip the Whovian, Derek, Roberth Anthony Martinez Rivero, RD, Bryce, Simon, Arethius, Lost Dragon, and TrekMD!
