Not sure if there's a thread for this topic, but here's a list of video game related channels I'm currently subscribed to on Youtube:

(in no particular order)
Clan of the Grey Wolf, Continue?, egoraptor, FreQuenczy, Gamester81, InecomCompany (Classic Game Room), JohnTronShow, lophatjello (HVGN), NESComplex, NintendoFanGirl, ScrewAttack, ThatOneVideoGamer (The Completionist), wiiviewer, IGNentertainment, .Start (IGN), TheRetroHunters, HAWPOfficial (Hey Ash Whatcha' Playin'), Brentalfloss and JamesNintendoNerd (AVGN).

I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anyone, but I am ALWAYS on the hunt for new entertaining video game channels on youtube, so if you know of any youtubers that you think are pretty great that I do NOT have on this list - I'd love to check them out. I always visit websites like ScrewAttack and Gametrailers to see their original content as well (example: Pach-Attack!/ Pop Fiction/ Hard News etc.). Please let me know who I SHOULD be watching that isn't on here!

You should be watching NakaTeleeli. He's got awesome Let's Plays.
I would also recommend TotalHalibut for great new release coverage and spida1a for his TurboViews (TG-16 reviews).

Thanks! I've instantly added them and checking out their videos now. TurboViews I can already tell I'm gonna love, TG-16 was always one of my favorite systems and the reviews seem to be formatted in a way I am already familiar with.

I Love Classic Game Room, he always has some interesting reviews on everything he has. Also Gamester81, great for looking at many retro game stores and rare hardware.

Ask for LP'ers well there's not too many on my list anymore, most of them I used to watch went the route of streaming live on Twitch which is fine but their ego got way too big that they don't care about their fans anymore.

That being said, there's a few that are still on my list that I really enjoy and some are all around pretty cool people. There's a few here that aren't LP'ers but have video game related videos:

BoogyCarl: Mostly Nintendo related but fun since it's two people playing.
CaptainVulgarity: Hey You Pikachu & Vulgar Mario Party, need I say more.
Cauchemar89: A Swiss guy that without him I would have never gotten Paper Mario for the N64 many great LP's.
CruelestChris: Has some gems here and there, I hope he finishes his Perfect Dark & Goldeneye LP's.  darkmindedsith: Interesting guy all around with Banjo & Zelda LP's
DeniedAfro: My favorite LP'er, has been doing Half Life games for a few years now.
Freeman's Mind: Ever wonder what Gordan Freeman from Half Life is thinking?
hard4games: Many interesting gaming reviews, especially the N64DD.
Lueroi: Great Pokemon LP'er, actually learned a few things I never knew about the games.
nickwyrmfang: Wanna hear a guy that screams so loud he breaks microphones, comedy LP'ing mostly.
PhantomZwei: Currently inactive but if your into anime he has a few interesting visual novel LP's
ProtonJonSA: One of the oldest LP'ers I've been subscribed to for years, most famous for Kaizo Mario & Superman 64.
The Runaway Guys: ProtonJon, NintendoCapriSun, and Chuggaaconroy playing multiplayer games together.
tigheklory: Great guy that has an amazing collection of arcade cabinets he restores and a few custom ones he's made himself.

I havent watched Lukemorse1 since his wife left him because of his obsession with games. From what I have heard, he learned nothing.
My LPs Channel. Currently playing Legend of Zelda: Windwaker HD, Metal Gear Solid 2, and Resident Evil 2.

Holy crap there is some real gold in here - I can't believe I haven't heard of Freeman's Mind! CaptainVulgarity is hilarious and I'm gonna have to watch more of his stuff today. Thanks for the huge list - I'm looking for new content to fill out my down times everyday and this really helps!

I've actually seen a few of Captain8Bits videos plugging TCP - I don't know why I never subscribed because he's exactly the type of videos I look for! I also subscribed to lukemorse1 just now - he's got a TON of back videos which most of them look very helpful ( the repair videos I'm really interested in) - Thanks!

I had no idea that happened but when you look at his videos he clearly has an obsession with his collecting, that's his personal life though and nothing to do with me. His videos are interesting that will do for me.

Yeah, I definitely need to update those pics - my collection is looking pretty sparse haha. I've got hundreds of games finally boxed. When I took those pics I just moved in and most of my games were all in boxes. I really want to get rid of my shelves and replace them with the ones you have, they seem perfect for what I'm looking for and they're cheap too! That's not a bad combo...

Had to dig up this topic simply because I un-subscribed to one of the channels I always watched

real game hunter

http://www.youtube.com/user/GameHunterVideos

Browsing ebay, and yes, hes a culprit of selling cases but to see him use art that was JUST submitted.... sickening

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NO-GAME-Custom-SNES-Game-Case-Super-Mario-World-2-Yoshis-Island-New-Box-/380549090804?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item589a7e4df4

It's beating a dead horse, but mods have to see someone that has downloaded almost every cover imaginable in a short period of time

THAT SAID a new channel I have been subscribed to for a few months, they do a great series on their flea market selling etc, nice guys and fair prices (bough some stuff off them through youtube) also does a lot of other random videos
