Gaming programs.

[zippypinhead]

I watch a lot of gaming channels on Youtube, but only listen to one gaming podcast, and that's The Indoor Kids, on Nerdist. It's such a great program. They always make me excited about games.

I'm also a big Rooster Teeth/Achievement Hunter fan, but who isn't? Their let's plays are just great. I could watch them play anything, but especially Minecraft. And I'm way into Rev3's news and reviews now that Adam Sessler is there. Also, GameFront doesn't seem as well known as a lot of the other big pro game review outfits, but I really dig the personalities of the video guys, James, Mitch, and sometimes Zac. Dark Souls with James is what caused me to buy Dark Souls, and The Minecraft Show was pretty addictive, too, until it kinda just petered out and died.

What other great gaming shows are worth a look?

I really enjoy GameGrumps. Well, mostly. They're really high energy and really funny, but sometimes not only is it to much, it seems that sometimes they intentionally try not to learn how to play the game properly as to have more to talk about. Their older stuff is great though. I'd say definitely take a look if you're interested!

Additionally, they both have their own channels which are also great.

I absolutely adore Yahtzee's reviews over at http://www.escapistmagazine.com/. He is hilarious, not at all biased (except for his undying love of the Silent Hill series) and pretty straight to the point.

I watch him every week, I think he is hilarious also.

I catch Zero Punctuation fairly regularly, but Yahtzee talks too fast for me. Between that an his cockney rhyming slang, I find him hard to follow. I mostly watch for the little cartoons. As far as snarky Brits talking games on Escapist goes, I do quite like Jimquisition.

I know Game Grumps has garnered quite the following. They even have their own pretty active Subreddit, which always kind of impresses me. I should give them a look.

I'm not usually one to watch gaming shows. I just catch whatever I find on Youtube at the time I'm on the site. However, I have been getting more into the live shows on Twitch.tv.

Oh man, I just discovered the Yogscast network, and I think I'm in love. Watching their playthroughs is like watching cartoons.

lol I saw the words 'Dark Souls' and just hit thanks for reminding me once more of such a great game.

Sidenote - playing the new Tiny Tina DLC for borderlands 2 there's a quest that's a huge reference to dark souls lol, with a skeletal player asking for help, you lighting bonfires and killing an invading player LOL.

I always enjoy listening to this guy Markee Dragon http://www.youtube.com/markeedragon he's been in the MMO scene as both a player and businessman for like 16 or 17 years now - so right from the start pretty much. He tells of a lot of cool stories and experiences he's had etc, also talks about current and upcoming games etc.
