Extra Life 2014: Playing for a Good Cause 3545s

Have you ever wanted to do something good for someone else? What if you could year the big date will be October 25th. 345n40

Play Games. Heal Kids.

Here’s how it works:

Originally designed as a 24-hour marathon of gaming, Extra Life has evolved to mean different things to different people (though most of our participants still attempt the marathon).

To participate you need only sign up (free) and gather the of your friends and family through tax-deductible donations to your local CMN Hospital.  Then on Saturday, October 25th, 2014 (or any day that works for you!) play any game(s) you want on any platform(s) that you want with anyone you want for as long as you want.

The proceeds from Extra Life stay where they’re raised to children’s hospitals.

Since 2008, our incredible players have raised more than 8 million dollars, $4 million of which was raised in 2013 alone!

With your help we can set a new record and save so many more kids!

WHEN:  October 25th, 2014 @ 8am (Or pick a date that works for you!)

WHERE:  Anywhere you like to game (Most people play from home!)

GAME/PLATFORM:  Play any games on any platforms you want including mobile devices or board games!

HOW IT WORKS:  Simply ask your friends and family to sponsor your efforts.  They can make a monthly pledge or a one-time gift.  Then, have a seat and play games on October 25th.

WHO IT BENEFITS:  Gamers North America can choose hospitals and causes that work specifically in their area of the world.

Now that you know the basics, you might like to know that there are some SWTOR teams already set up so if you want to jump into one and enjoy some SWTOR marathon time for a good cause, then here are a few who have posted on Reddit.

Lisa has been an avid gamer since she was old enough to hold her first controller and a game writer for more than a decade. A child of the Nintendo generation, she believes they just don’t make games like they used to but sometimes, they make them even better! While consoles will always be her first love, Lisa spends most of her gaming time on the PC these days- on MMOs and first-person shooters in particular.
