    My list of favourite youtube channels is growing so i thought it would be cool to start a topic to not only share those i usually watch but also to discover some other channels i might be missing. I don't look for reviews, gameplay with commentary, people yelling and stuff like that, but mostly game comparisons, hardware information and real discussion about games, stuff i can relate to.

    From Assembler members, these are the ones i follow:

    Retro Core: https://www.youtube.com/user/Yakumo1975/videos
    Yakumo's channel, with my current favourite series Battle of the Ports. There's also lots of videos about gaming in japan that i really never get tired of watching.

    RetroCompaqGuy: https://www.youtube.com/user/RetroCompaqGuy/videos
    vetz's channel, with videos comparing the performance of early 3D video cards. It's really an amazing work.

    PtoPOnline: https://www.youtube.com/user/ptoponline/videos
    Borman's channel with lots of prototypes and unreleased games.

    DaLaser Reactive: https://www.youtube.com/user/lasereactive/videos and https://www.youtube.com/user/dalaserreactive/videos
    stuntpeople's channel with his LaserDisc ripped videos. Don't know why he has two channels, subscribed to both anyway.

    If you're a member here and have a channel, go ahead and post the link.

    Now, here are some other channels currently follow:

    Jimquisition: https://www.youtube.com/user/JimSterling/videos
    Jim is one of the few people that has the guts to say what's wrong with the gaming industry like dumb DLCs, microtransactions, rushed and bugged products and so on.

    GameRaveTV: https://www.youtube.com/user/GameRaveTV/videos
    Jason's channel (from Game-Rave.com) mostly cover PS1 and some Saturn.

    Did You Know Gaming?: https://www.youtube.com/user/DYKGaming/videos
    Great channel that focus on gaming history.

    Game Sack: https://www.youtube.com/user/MrGameSack/videos
    Most people probably know about these guys, they do some great discussions about gaming history and share their opinions.

    Retro Game Tech: https://www.youtube.com/user/RetroGameTech/videos
    Really interesting channel showing his pickups and repairs / mods.

    Sega Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/SegaMarkIII/videos
    Shares his experience on being a Sega collector, specially the Master System, probably the reason it got me so interested.

    The Game Chasers https://www.youtube.com/user/Captain8Bit/videos
    Formatted like a TV show. They don't act like they know everything and watching them hunt for games (specially NES) is actually interesting.

    Lazy Game Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/user/phreakindee/videos
    Covers old PC games and hardware stuff. Really interesting.

    Nintendo collecting https://www.youtube.com/user/lithium017/videos
    Everything Nintendo, this guy has an impressive collection and he has tons of knowledge. Mainly Nintendo.

    Lukemorse1
    https://www.youtube.com/user/lukemorse1
    Similiar to RetroGameTech, but he's been at this game for much longer. This guy is in Japan, he also has tons of games and he can probably repair anything.

    Maxxarcade https://www.youtube.com/user/Maxxarcade
    Very intersting PC videos. He has tons of repair videos and project videos. He got me properly interested in building PC's.

    LinusTechTips
    https://www.youtube.com/user/LinusTechTips
    In my opinion, this is the ultimate PC channel. High quality production value, this guy started out working for NCIX, but for 2 years now he already has his own company thanks to Youtube.

    You do have some great videos. Anyone interested on the original Xbox should subscribe to your channel.

    I do plan on starting a channel myself, but i still don't know nothing about video editing. I'm planning on talking about diferent versions of Gran Turismo also about some uncommon games i like from all platforms. Still have to figure it out how i'll do it.

    Anyway, i also subscribed to MetalJesusRocks, really great channel. Thanks Yakumo for that suggestion. Watching some of the other suggestions as well.

    I try to, lately I've ran out of motivation to do so. Not sure why, it's one of those things where you need to be in the right mood otherwise they don't turn out.

    There's a lot of GT fans out there, if you have information that not many know about. People will find your videos interesting.
