Playing Mega Man For Charity

On August 14th at 6PM cst, The Speed Gamers will embark on a 72 hour Mega Man marathon to raise money for the Earth Day Network charity, an effort to "broaden and diversify the environmental movement worldwide, and to mobilize it as the most effective vehicle for promoting a healthy, sustainable environment."

While the playing is happening, you'll have the opportunity to view a live stream of the action on their website. Viewers will have the option to donate funds and maybe even win a few prizes.

So far, these guys have raised 82,000 from their past efforts, a majority of which recently came from their 168 hour Final Fantasy marathon a few days back. Simply amazing.

Learn more about the marathon and The Speed Gamers at their official website here.

  3. That's pretty damn cool. I truly have respect for these guys and when they get their megaman game up and running, I'll be sure to support them as well. Can't wait to see that.
