The Yogscast is an organisation that produces videos (primarily playthroughs) of various video games. It was founded by Simon Lane and Lewis Brindley with their first video released on YouTube on the 19th of July 2008.
Although the Yogscast initially gained popularity with their World of Warcraft videos, they are most famous for their coverage of Minecraft and claim to have played a large part in Minecraft's commercial success. At Gamescom 2011 the Yogscast promoted the Xperia PLAY with Minecraft: Pocket Edition in place of Notch (Markus Persson), creator of Minecraft, who was unable to attend in person. The Yogscast and Notch had a major falling out after MineCon 2011, in which Notch accused the Yogscast of profanity and unprofessional behavior and stated he would no longer work with the Yogscast. He later apologised for his accusations.
The Yogscast has seven YouTube channels: BlueXephos, Yogscast2, YogscastSips, YogscastSjin, Yogscastlalna, YogscastRythian, and NilesyRocks. Their main YouTube channel was the first channel in the UK to reach 1 billion views, and as of January 2012 is the fourth most popular YouTube channel in the UK (after The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent, and the BBC). The channel has over 2 million subscribers. The Yogscast also produces a podcast called the YoGPoD.
