8-4 Play: 12/11/2020: IT’S GREAT! LISTEN TO IT!

This week we record before both The Game Awards AND the release of Cyberpunk 2077. But that doesn’t stop us from ad-libbing some game award moments and re-visiting our Netflix corner.

Every other week, tune into 8-4 Play for talk about video games, Japan, and Japanese video games, straight from the 8-4 offices in beautiful downtown Tokyo. Hosted by 1UP Japan's own Mark MacDonald, John Ricciardi, and Hiroko Minamoto.
