    I'd have to say my favorite is GameSack, Metal Jesus and Classic Game Room are awesome too though.

    Alpha Omega Sin


    Those are my favorite youtubers. It was kind of funny upon joining this forum to see Pete Dorr is a long time member. I tend to like Alpha Omega sin and how he gets in your face. He is the true angry video game nerd.

    There are a couple of others I liked but the first one to come to mind is Classic Game Room (Mark)


    I lived my life with no fear nor hatred... For these traits are certain to the content of my immortal being.

    Chrontendo/Chronsega/Chronturbo and Generation-16 are good for information on game releases. 16-bit Gems is good too if you're looking for reviews.

    Still working on creating a regular series, but we've got some videos up that I'm really proud of.

    I am totally in love with Happy Console Gamer. I've never seen anyone in their 30s with such excitement for video games reminiscent of childhood. It's so refreshing in a cesspool of angry reviewers and annoying LPers.

    I been liking his newer stuff a lot. A lot of his old videos were pickups which get boring after awhile. The only youtuber I can stand to watch pickups videos is Pete Dorr. And even his pickup videos are having the same problem. That is what happens when you buy games just to own them.

    He does news and reviews really well. like the last one I posted on here about Atlus going bankrupt.


    Pickup videos or hauls is about the most annoying thing in the gaming community to me. It's like hey guys look at these cheap games I bought and most likely will never play. YAY! It's always some knucklehead with a stack of games throwing out cheesy one liners about them.

    That is the problem I have with captian8bit. I love the guys editing skills but he is too focused on the monetary aspect of video games. I'm sick and tired of hearing about his Flintstones find for the last 2 years now.

    Oh, God. Don't even get me started. I was once subbed to this guy named Pirate, who was a full blown level five hoarder/dumpster diver. It was scary, watching his pick up vids.

    Also, recently stumbled across a channel that hosts a show called Video Game Theory -- the guy makes educated and well-researched guesses as to themes, story elements, and development in games. His video on Polybius kept me up at night. T_T
