I'm not so sure. I think I've heard that a lot of kids use it for a toilet, though.

I've started to get a bit more annoyed by the juvenile humor in the newer episodes, though. The older episodes with Dom don't seem to succumb to this as much, but I kind of like Josh more. What do? Anyway, the videos give me a good glimpse at some games with some added entertainment at times.
I made a thread about Continue? a while back and not many have heard of it. They've been doing XBLA games for the past few weeks because of a sponsorship between Microsoft and their partner company (Polaris), so that means videos related to them such as the Game Grumps will all be playing the same game. I liked they had a good retro focus but I can't stomach these newer reviews and we still got at least another couple weeks of those. Plus, a disturbing lack of "Epic Maneuvers" this year.

Other than that, it's CGR and Game Sack and the occasional Metal Jesus for me.

I watch "Continue?" when I get nostalgic for my college days when my buddies would sit around and laugh and have a good time in front of some games. It reminds me of going through NES roms on the Dreamcast and playing random games we never heard of. Good times. I've got to be in the mood for that kind of humor though. I'd usually rather watch them than Game Grumps or something similar though.

Gamesack is one of my favorite channels right now. I've been posting on Sega-16 since 2006 so it was great to see Joe on his own show and they do a fantastic job. It's one of the most interesting and informative shows and the Sega/Nintendo goofing on each other is entertaining. I've actually learned things about games I'm not terribly familiar with from watching Gamesack and that's not something I could say of a lot of youtube channels.

I've been watching Classic Game Room since he brought it back, I just love Mark's deadpan style and his opinions on games very frequently coincide with my own. Even if I don't watch any other videos I usually always check CGR daily. I can get why a lot of people dislike his stuff though since he's not always terribly informative.

I watch Metal Jesus as well, really liked his "Atari 2600 games that don't suck" videos especially. The Gamecube hidden gems have been good so far as well.

Oh, is that what's been up with the last few episodes? I don't really mind it when a youtube show wants to look at newer stuff, but now that I know they're contractually obligated to do it, it makes me a little unhappy.

What do you guys think about the GGG vs SSS stuff that's been going on? It's quite amusing to read the fanboy comments on GGG's videos.

Game Gears with Gravy and Sega Saturns with Shallots are two of my favorite dishes. I can't believe you haven't tried them Pierrot.
