[QUOTE]This summer, we'll launch YouTube Gaming, a brand new app and website to keep you connected to the games, players, and culture that matter to you, with videos, live streams, and the biggest community of gamers on the web—all in one place.
YouTube Gaming is built to be all about your favorite games and gamers, with more videos than anywhere else. From "Asteroids" to "Zelda," more than 25,000 games will each have their own page, a single place for all the best videos and live streams about that title. You’ll also find channels from a wide array of game publishers and YouTube creators.
Keeping up with these games and channels is now super easy, too. Add a game to your collection for quick access whenever you want to check up on the latest videos. Subscribe to a channel, and you'll get a notification as soon as they start a live stream. Uncover new favorites with recommendations based on the games and channels you love. And when you want something specific, you can search with confidence, knowing that typing “call” will show you “Call of Duty” and not “Call Me Maybe.”
Live streams bring the gaming community closer together, so we’ve put them front-and-center on the YouTube Gaming homepage. And in the coming weeks, we’ll launch an improved live experience that makes it simpler to broadcast your gameplay to YouTube. On top of existing features like high frame rate streaming at 60fps, DVR, and automatically converting your stream into a YouTube video, we’re redesigning our system so that you no longer need to schedule a live event ahead of time. We’re also creating single link you can share for all your streams.
YouTube Gaming will be available this summer, starting in the U.S. and U.K.

they are unveiling this fully at E3 with their own E3 Stuff at [url]http://youtube.com/e3[/url]

Why at e3, though?
"Instead of playing all these new games, it's now even easier to watch someone else play them!"

I dunno, it just feels weird to see Youtube there.

It's cheaper. I don't play games that much anymore because I have little disposable income. I do, however, watch lots of LPs so I can watch the game stories without actually having to play them. If the story is what's most important to you, than a good LPer (someone who's not shrill and annoying) can make it so you don't even have to play to game to enjoy it. I like Two Best Friends Play Silent Hill 2 for example.

They are getting the dorito pope to manage a E3 Live show for youtube and inviting a ton of Youtubers to run around the Showfloor to play the new games there for youtube, while showing the E3 confrences.
Youtube is trying to be competition with twitch. especially with 60FPS Livestreams, DVR capabilities without censorship like twitch (unless your dumb and show a copyrighted movie or something), and All that.

How fucking lazy do you gotta be? They're just making up problems.

they're going for the absolute lowest common denominator
Same old shitty YouTube streaming service.
"Asteroids to Zelda" ...with the way Nintendo handles people making videos and having them up on YouTube and monetized, I'm thinking not so much

Let's plays you generally watch for the players personality and playing style as opposed to strictly for the game

I must be weird then, because I strictly avoid let's plays with any kind of commentary or personality. I watch them only because I am incapable of playing the game for whatever reason, and I want to see it. I could not care less about whatever jokes the person holding the controller wants to make, nor their reactions to the game.

That's cool, I imagine most people prefer to play games instead of watch other ppl play them, everybody is different. Personally I enjoy watching people play old games or difficult games that I myself don't have the patience to play.

Also cool to watch people who are very knowledgable about the lore play those kinda games.

To be fair that's far more interesting than some of these other streams. Especially when people can play demos of those games
Does this mean shitty minecraft videos will stop taking up the entire front page of YouTube???

I'm guessing it'll still be there, just have a header of "YouTube Gaming."
Awesome, now we'll have [i]two[/i] sites full of terrible gamers hoping to hit it big.

How is it shitty? The Bethesda E3 show was a thousand times more stable for us on youtube stream than twitch. That might be because of lower viewcount but either way it was super stable at super high quality with over a hundred thousand people watching it
