On October 25th we’ll be staying up ALL DAY AND NIGHT playing video games to raise money for the Children’s Hospital Foundation here in Winnipeg. Please donate now — every tax-deductible dollar will go to help sick kids facing scary stuff like cancer, cystic fibrosis, and injuries.
Watch us LIVE for 24 hours!
We’ll be doing a 24 hour livestream of the gaming marathon on Twitch.tv where you’ll be able to watch the gameplay action, and a feed from our camera – we’ll wave once in a while so you know we’re still awake!
Watch us LIVE! (starting 9:00 am CST on Saturday October 25)
Here are some of the highlights you’ll see from us on Saturday (times are in Central)
24 hours of Retroulette
9:00 am Saturday – 9:00 am Sunday
Watch as we play from a totally random selection of such classics (and stinkers) as: Battletoads, Blaster Master, Cheetah Men, Bible Buffet, Wild Guns, Ghosts and Goblins, and hundreds more!
Shadow of the Colossus (9:00 am)
The Extra-Life marathon has given Ryan a chance to finally play this ground-breaking game.
Super Mario World (1:00 pm)
One of the best games ever made?
Heavy Rain (4:00 pm)
Chris’ most despised game – he has pledged to throw an hour against it for a good cause. A few of his choice complaints:
- The plot is unbelievably contrived, and FULL of holes.
- The entire game is super pretentious.
- Most of the characters are super bland and uninteresting.
- The twist near the ending is AWFUL and makes no sense.
- The few potentially cool things they hint at get tossed to the wayside.
- Voice acting is super weak and kinda bad.
- The game flat out lies to you pretty much, and makes many of your choices entirely pointless.
Darksouls – Speed-run Race! (6:00 pm)
Chris and his crew will race to complete Dark Souls as quickly as humanly possible.
Mini-game Potpourri (11:00 pm)
A mix of quick mini-games like Dino Run and Groin Gravitators (if Robin can find someone to play this with him).
Five Nights at Freddy’s (12:00 am)
This scary game is perfect for midnight — be sure to watch our reactions on this one!
Grim Fandango (3:00 am)
Ryan’s quest to get this old game working has paid off, but will he have the energy at 3:00 am to play it?
Games by Cactus (5:00 am)
Some weird games at 5:00 am will be perfect for our sleep deprived brains!
