8-4 Play 3/25/2011: AFTER THE QUAKE

26 March 2011

A lot has happened in the four weeks since our last episode. The Game Developer’s Conference came and went, Charlie Sheen jumped the tiger-shark (-blood…or whatever), Winter gave way to Spring, and the largest earthquake in Japan’s recorded history rocked our tiny island home. But the show must go on, as they say, and so the 8-4 five are back in action with personal quake stories, first-month 3DS reflections, early thoughts on Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP, the month in news, and more.

Running time: 1:50:24
