So I've recently got more into the youtube subscriptions and was wondering if anyone had any gaming related youtube channels they love to share.
So far my favourites are :
giantbomb Various SF4/KOFXIII related channels (I'm a bit of a fighting game junky) Mat Chat (easily the best channel)
The main one I would recommend is Mat Chat. It's probably the best video game related show I've ever seen, thanks to Paul E for recommending it initially.
Anyways does anyone have any other suggestions for interesting gaming related youtube channels? I did try the Rev3 channel but I didnt find anything on it particularly interesting.

Matt Chat sure is great, especially the interviews. Day[9] is a good one if you're into StarCraft (match commentaries, strategy guides, etc.); there's also some LPs of other games. Egoraptor's Sequelitis videos are pretty interesting if the weird voice shouty bits don't spoil it for you. GameGrumps is all LPs from this guy and his buddy.

http://www.youtube.com/user/CampsterI really like Errant Signal and DTOID's Sup Holmes. State of Play has some decent interviews too.

seconded, I really enjoy Errant Signal. his recent video on Tony Hawk was pretty great. some people seem to dislike him a lot, but I always find TotalBiscuit's videos entertaining and informative. http://www.youtube.com/user/TotalHalibut?feature=g-high-u

I'll agree with errant signal I recently got into it and powered through all of them. They come out pretty infrequently though. I have to disagree with TotalBiscuit though. I find that whenever I watch his videos he seems to be really bad at the games he's playing and doesn't pay attention to the instructions. Then he wastes a bunch of time fumbling about with no idea how to continue. He does do videos pretty often though.

I guess it depends on which videos you're watching. The games he obviously enjoys he's more on the informative side, but when you're watching videos of games he dislikes he's more on the entertaining side. He does a good job explaining why he likes a game, and a good job at poking fun at and being funny about games he dislikes. Much prefer to watch him over reading a game article by journalists who like to ham things up for their readers.

"Where is the FOV slider?" - TotalBiscuit Seriously the dude knows his stuff, especially PC gaming. You could skip the "WTF's" which is his first impressions series but "Content Patch" is really worth while. Campster's "Errand Signal" has already been mentioned and I have to give a big up to that. I enjoy it a lot more than Extra Credits even though that show is good too. Also mentioned... "Indie Impressions" is another first impressions series that I really enjoy. The guy covers a lot that wouldn't be because it's more or less under the radar and he does it well. He might not be the most entertaining commentator but I mostly watch it because the games are interesting. "Classic Game Room" is a review channel and the great thing about it is that it really doesn't matter what is under review because it's always entertaining. They do mainly games but also peripherals, toys etc.

Oh I was under the impression that he only did the WTF is series. His episode on Pid was a prime example of him not understanding a fairly simple mechanic. I'll check out the other series sometime.

He is a cynical prick but I love him.

Hey all! I've been a big fan of the usual bunch Seananners, Hutch, Chilled chaos but have more recently been wanting to dabble in YouTube myself and so I'm going for it with a focus on games out of mainstream. I did initially start with GTA 4, Dishonored and a couple of other "crowd pleasers" but that really didn't make me happy! What I'd like to do is create a Indie community focusing on all games out of mainstream and just to a little preview/review of them. Hope you don't mind me linking but check it out, I've just put up my first "indie vid" playing Cantrip: www.youtube.com/gamerturnipIf I can put anyone else videos on there don't hesitate to give me a shout, I know my tube is only small but it would be great to try and get your game out there Cheers

TheUberHunter (Game Hunter) - makes roguelike let's plays, funny and intelligent dude. Usually, he starts playing with no preliminary knowledge of the game.

I watched some of the shows you guys mentioned and two of them really grabbed me: Errant Signal and Sup, Holmes?Big thanks to those who recommended them. Hey Ash Whatcha Playin'?I've been hearing about it for some time, but never really felt compelled to see it. Now I watched Sup, Holmes? with Anthony Burch and gave it a try. Turns out it's a pretty good comedy show.
