I was in grade 8(Feels Like Forever Ago DX) the first ever videos I ever seen was the screw attack vaults.
I must have seen all of them at that time and found the AVGN and Nostalga Critic all that stuff but I can not get over how long its been since this whole Video Game reviews/top tens all that stuff has been around!
I am not that good at talking over internet but I would like to hear your storys about how it found you!

Back in 2007 I found Gametrailers where I started to watch shows like Bonus Round, Gamehead (which is now GTTV) and the Angry Video Game Nerd. Since I liked AVGN, I started watching other Screwattack videos like the vaults.

Now it's been about 4 years and I still watch all the same stuff. On Gametrailers I usually watch Bonus Round, Pach-Attack, GTTV, AVGN, and their special stuff like reviews, GT countdowns, and retrospectives.

I followed Tom to this site and watch/listen to everything they upload. Don't really watch Screwattack stuff much outside of AVGN.

Grade nine. Some kids in my English class were quoting some of the nerds earlier videos.

long time ago, I used to lookup and watch speed runs of old NES and SNES games. Both to see people do it crazy fast and to see how to get through some of the harder games.

one day while jacking around on youtube (before it was a corporate whore who flagged everything for copyright infringement) I looked up vids for Castlevania 2. and Found the Nerd's video's.

I used to watch G4 a bit back in the day as well.

If there was a video about video games, I used to try to watch it.

I watched the good old AVGN one faithful day and continued to watch videos pertaining to video games ever since.

N64.com (before it became IGN64) circa 1997
Also those Demo discs for the PSX and Saturn around that time
Switched over and followed Gamespot for awhile because I always liked EGM
Gametrailers TV in 2005 (wasn't on my old provider)
AVGN and Screwattack in 2006
then Youtube exploded and started watching a bunch of different ones by 2007
