YouTube Gaming announced as Google’s answer to Twitch
Thousands of games will be featured through dedicated pages, each with videos and livestreams which feature the game in question.
“YouTube Gaming is built to be all about your favorite games and gamers, with more videos than anywhere else,” said YouTube Gaming product manager Alan Joyce. “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.”
Users will be able to go online or use the app to subscribe to channels, and sign up to be notified when a livestreams starts or when content has been uploaded.
New features will be made available for those who livestream, forgoing the need to schedule events prior to the stream.
YouTube Gaming will launch this summer in the UK and US.

Snag I feel like this will end up being very successful. It seems like it'll make it easier for people to discover new channels for their favorite games. This also seems like it will give new YouTube gamers to become popular with it being easier to get their name out. I really hope they can make this beneficial rather than just a way for them to take Twitch off their list of marketing competition
Thank you someone who doesn't think this is going to be a total failure

Alphabets I plan on seeing YouTube and Google take off with this idea. Twitch may be losing some numbers soon..
People think it's going to be a failure I think differently

If this becomes a flop, guarantee they migrate ALL gaming content to this. A little like Google+ really; no one ever uses that, do they?
