Holy Crap if that quote about Youtube deleting all those videos not uploaded by the publisher nor developers and shutting down channels such as Rev3Games and Game Grumps is true, that is going to upset some people. I really hope Sessler and the rest of the Rev3Games crew stay employed, that channel has became my second go to game press area behind Giant Bomb. If Rev3Games gets shut down, maybe the crew can move over to Destructoid to perform their jobs considered that both are owned by Revision, but we'll see.
I'm also really concerned for some of those Let's Play channels. I get that publishers would get mad that people would profit over showing footage of their own games without permission, but please don't shut those down. I like channels such as Two Best Friends Play (shut up) as well as some small ones not a lot of people have heard of. They can provide entertaining and sometimes funny commentary to their games and if they can't continue doing this, that's a shame. I wouldn't feel all that sad if PewDewPie stopped making video game videos anymore though.
