[ShockingAlberto]

It's not impossible, but considering 01.net said the revision is next year, I think it was a bad bet to take.

Though it was interestingly a different leaker from the one who mentioned the analog add-on. Both were just in the same article.

Not that I doubt a revision next year at all.

 

[sixteen-bit]

I don't remember that... ¬.¬

Well, you aren't alone apparently. I could have sworn it came up at least twice though.

 

[StuBurns]

The end of this show has turned quite heated, wow.

 

[sprsk]

It's not showing up in the iTunes store at all. I just manually added the RSS feed and that seems to have worked.

Hmm, I'm downloading it through my itunes feed now.

 

[Gomu Gomu]

Hmm, I'm downloading it through my itunes feed now.

It's already downloaded via the iTunes feed here.

 

[border]

If you follow the link in the OP it still doesn't show up in the iTunes listing....nor if you search for "8-4 Play" in iTunes. It may be in the feed but if you aren't subscribed (I was not) you can't grab it.

Ah, I think that's normal actually. The actual store doesn't update immediately.

 

[LiK]

direct d/l is really slow on 3G right now.

 

[AgentChris]

Awesome and epic 8-4 Play. Can't wait to listen.

 

[StuBurns]

Finished. Good episode, thanks to the guys for taking the time.

Regards to feedback, I want a Metal Gear episode. I don't know if the guys and gal have all played them, but it's bound to be more interesting than Zelda because it's a single unified and somewhat cohesive story.

In terms of major Japanese long running franchises, RE and MGS are the only two like that I can think of.

 

[Shadow780]

It's a shame that the most interesting discussion came at the end, I'd love to hear more stories about Western games' desperate attempt to appeal to Japanese gamers.

lol @ after the music.

 

[Kyoufu]

Yeeeeeees. This should be good.

One of the best podcast out there

Nope.

The best.

 

[Owzers]

if they don't announce a 3DS revision, it's going to be the huge elephant in the room regarding the system for the rest of the year. I was waiting for some more games to come out before i bought a 3ds ( and the screen scratching thing was fixed), but now there is no way i'm buying the system until it's revised with a second analog stick.

 

[Wario64]

So where's Sales-Age on the DQ8 sales figures? I thought it sold pretty well in America too

It didn't clear 500k, but it did well.

 

[Anth0ny]

Markmacd's dream world. I freakin lol'd.


In case I haven't said it already, best podcast ever.

 

[Pachterballs]

yeah my favourite podcast and this quickly charted. Last week's RE discussion has me wanting more.

 

[Kyoufu]

@MarkMacdonald:

I think Tri G needs the 2nd analogue stick. While the PSP games did fine without it, they didn't have underwater combat.

 

[DOBERMAN INC]

Best podcast out there,can't wait to listen to their views on DQX.

 

[Ghost Dad the Whip]

Another day, another non-no-kuni podcast... you ghibli teases!

Otherwise, excellent work as usual.

 

[Deegon]

Is mark still going "uuuu" or "uuumhh" in every other sentence? I'm not even kidding when I say it's getting really annoying and he need to stop it, but I want to listen to the podcast anyway. It's like I'm slowly going insane and he knows it.

I was thinking about counting every time he says ummm or uuuuhh, and account one second for every time and see how many minutes per podcast he accumulates.

Uh...

 

[Wario64]

Bahaha, the ending....

 

[StuBurns]

John wanted to know why they did Code Veronica. It's the only other one they could have done. Every other mainline entry uses prerendered backgrounds.

 

[meltingparappa]

Amazing episode of the greatest podcast.

The conversation inexplicably going full on derp as Ryan enlists as a brave soldier in the portable console wars.

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

Why doesn't Hiroko ever speak? Why is she even there? Does she just feel obligated to sit in on these things?

 

[Neuromancer]

I like her. She speaks when she has something to say.

 

[Kyoufu]

Ryan needs to be a regular on the show. Too bad his company isn't in Japan

TGS edition should be great.

 

[Curufinwe]

Why doesn't Hiroko ever speak? Why is she even there? Does she just feel obligated to sit in on these things?

There have been episodes where she has been quite vocal.

It's within your power to stop focusing on the uumhs and pay attention to his generally very sharp commentary. You know he's not going to change the way he talks for you, so you can change what you pay attention to or you can not listen.

Like the Yamaoka one

 

[Dommel]

Almost 3 hours of 8-4 play, my body is ready!

 

[Red Blaster]

Started listening to this a few weeks back, love it; best podcast since old-school 1up Yours.

 

[a Master Ninja]

When John Ricciardi kept on insisting that the PS3 will outlast the 360, what did he mean? In Japan?

 

[bigdaddygamebot]

So excited!

I look forward to the crow eating.

Holy fuck, same here.

I like all these guys too but man were they ever hard on the website that leaked the 3DS attachment.

Can't wait to listen and hear how they dance out of that one.

 

[Credo]

What was that music at the end of the episode? I feel like I've heard it before, but I can't put my finger on what it is.

 

[LiK]

Payton said he doesn't hate me. Excitement returns.

 

[Wario64]

Why would anyone hate you?

 

[AgentChris]

SCE doesn't kill their systems and 10-year life cycle? He didn't mean Japan because only Nintendo and Sony exist there.

 

[LiK]

Why would anyone hate you?

I dunno, it happens, lol

 

[Curufinwe]

SCE doesn't kill their systems and 10-year life cycle? He didn't mean Japan because only Nintendo and Sony exist there.

MS killed the Xbox because of specific reasons that aren't applicable to the 360, so I don't see any reason to think the PS3 will outlast the 360 to any significant degree.

 

[AngryMoth]

I don't think he articulated it very well but I get what John was saying about MS. I don't want to support a company that in my view is rapidly loosing touch with what their costomers want and is actively driving the industry in the wrong direction.

 

[Visceir]

What was that music at the end of the episode? I feel like I've heard it before, but I can't put my finger on what it is.

It's from Inception soundtrack.

 

[cw_sasuke]

As expected Ryan Lives the 3DS hehe.... Good Listen so far.
Didnt thet realize that the frankenstick is optional for mh tri g ?

 

[Credo]

It's from Inception soundtrack.

Thank you much.

 

[Troidal]

Inception = Mark's dream world, LOL

I agree with Mark, but unfortunately I am wide awake.

 

[BrodiemanTTR]

Ryan's point on Uncharted is something I never hear anyone talk about but that I noticed myself only a few minutes into the game. I would really like to hear his full talk.

 

[Cartman86]

Loved the Limbo PS3/360 smackdown.

 

[Cartman86]

I hear it quite often. Especially in regards to the ending of 2.

Thank you much.

It's not actually from the Inception movie/soundtrack. It's from the trailer.

 

[Cartman86]

damnit
