8-4 Play: 01/10/2014 -- "Holiday Hangover"

John’s out sick, but the show must go on! This week we talk about how we spent our New Years, Ys II, Bravely Default, Zelda: ALBW, Mark’s Gamestop experience, what Hiroko *wants* to play, CES, pizza and more!

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.

All of the Steam Machine announcements crack me up. Cheapest model has worse specs and is more expensive than a PS4 + its no cheaper than the PC I already built on the high end. Plus looking at the articles coming out recently makes it seem like no one has ever built a PC before.

Listening to it right now. I've finally caught up with all the episodes (I was introduced to the podcast when GB began hosting it, and only recently decided to start back from the beginning), and super glad I did. Highly entertaining and informative podcast. Can't wait for you guys to do another console retrospective, or something in the vain of that.

Keep up the awesome work!

same here...I'm currently in mid 2012 about to catch up with where I started

definitely very informative about localization and japanese games that don't come to the US or aren't as popular in the US

I've been continually bombarded on Itunes with the Holiday Hangover episode download error message :( My hope is that by the next episode of 8-4 their channel and the premium channel will be set to rights.
