I thought it was a really strong first show, of course it didn't hurt that with TGS there was plenty to talk about. I liked that every topic seemed to have just the right amount of time, and nothing dragged on.

Anyway, if there were any way you guys could get Yamaoka on the show to talk about DAMNED, what it's like doing a completely different game, etc, that would be perfectly awesome.

Great show, tuning in next.. week after next? well that part sucks.

Probably, isn't she John Riccardi's girlfriend?

Not my girlfriend, just my business partner. She's been on the Kojipro cast a few times tho, yes. (She's not actually on ep 1 of 8-4 Play, but she'll be on ep 2 for a bit at least.)

She knows pretty much everyone in the J-Game industry so we're hoping she'll invite some of her friends on the show. :) We do want feedback from you guys as to what kind of guests you'd want us to try and get, what kind of things you want us to talk about, etc. etc., so please let us know!

If you can get Ken Imaizumi, that'd be pretty awesome. So many questions you could throw at the guy that he'd never answer and we could pour over the various pauses and uncomfortable noises and interpret them wildly.

Having worked on Level-5 stuff a fair bit, someone working on Ninokuni would be great too.

Anyone at Platinum Games.

Finally! Will listen!

(And this means Here Comes A New Challenger for our own humble podcast, alas!)

Talk to someone from Cave about the iPhone and the West and all that jazz. I've been wanting to read/hear more about them for a while. :)

Question: How do I add the file to my iTunes podcast and not the general song list?
Comment: I fucking hate iTunes.

I would love to hear a localization team interrogate Yoshio Sakamoto about Metroid: Other M.

Just listened to the new weekend confirmed and enjoyed what i heard from you guys. The mic volumes were kinda fucked up tho Sprsk was loud as fuck and John's mic was really quiet. I agree with you sprsk on dmc on a wait and see approach. Will the game be mediocre? Probably. Should we just shit all over it based on a cutscene teaser? No. Maybe its a completely different Dante who the fuck knows, seems like they may be throwing a curveball. Back on topic downloading second half now.

Edit: forgot to say it was awesome hearing Mark McD again, him and Garnett's bickering is fucking great. Would've been epic to have the mangod there as well.
