I found that justin.tv is a really good resource for background Japanese.

This lists all the channels in Japanese. There are a lot of people playing and commenting on game, tv channels etc. Pretty interesting.

I'm listening to this one at the moment, http://www.justin.tv/tpitaru/old
He's playing FF7, it's pretty funny =D

Thank you. I found the newkatamari channel the other day, and it was interesting... While it was on. Then I couldn't figure out how to actually find other channels in Japanese.

lol Right now, that link only shows a guy playing what appears to be Monster Hunter, some people in a cab with speech bubbles for what they're saying, and what looks to be a computerized mixer. Not real encouraging.

This is great to just listen in. The guys are really funny playing games. Too bad there isn't much selection. Thanks for the link!

Yeah it's a shame there isn't much to choose from, but's it quite useful. You can even chat to the broadcaster =D
