Makes me wonder how popular South Park is in Japan.

I still remember FLCL parodying it.

Donkey Kong Country only has 3 songs? Donkey Kong Country is cheaper than Ghosts and Ghouls? Wow... Somebody is still sore Nintendo didn't send them DK Jamz.

Whatever happened to the theme song Akira Yamaoka said he would compose for the 8-4 Play podcast?

Ah. I never listen to this podcast (sorry), but it's awesome to see a timestamp! I wish the other podcasts would do that too.

@ntm: 8-4 Play just might be the best podcast on GB, at least when Mark "Gaming Jesus" McD is hosting it. Give it a try sometime.

I know the 8-4 Play community used to talk mostly on NeoGAF, but I'd hoped with it's sad shuttering, maybe that thread could turn up in the GB comment sections for their podcasts. I really like this podcast, and appreciate it appearing on Giant Bomb, but I often feel a little like an outsider because there's little interaction here.

I usually comment on their website, but it looks like they've shut that down. Always a great show and super informative podcast.
