The awesome guys at Respawn Point are hosting a seven day marathon in aid of the children's charity, Child's Play.
If you have a spare moment, why not go and visit, watch the marathon and donate to their worthy cause.
Feel free to join the chatroom and interact while they play every Sonic game they can get their hands on!
Oh, and did I mention prizes? They are raffling off a number of Sonic related games. A donation of just $3 will gain an entry to the raffles.
Visit http://www.sonicmarathon.com to watch them play and to join in the chat. If, like me, you prefer to chat using an IRC client, like we do here at RadioSEGA, they are on the QuakeNet server in the room, #sonicmarathon ([url]irc://irc.quakenet.org/sonicmarathon[/url]).
They are currently taking music requests as well, so if you have a favourite Sonic track, head over there and request it.

This time, the crew returns! Respawn Point's back once again to play (and feel the pain due to '06) the most Sonic games they can play within a week, starting 28th December 2012 to 4th January 2013, all to support Child's Play, a charity aimed to bring video games to children's hospitals.
The full game list is here:
So head on to either http://www.sonicmarathon.com or http://en.twitch.tv/respawnpoint to watch the stream, talk to fellow Sonic and/or SEGA fans and to donate! The children will thank you.

Respawn Point's back! Awesome work they did last time should be a great time this year! Remember staying up thru the night watching them play a multitude of games (thought I missed out on Heroes' Metal Madness/Overlord boss due to timezones). Hey maybe we can let RP known we're sponsoring their event?

I remember that too well! I even remember when I lost the bet of Zack beating Silver's Episode in less than 4 hours and was forced to sing my beta version (of many) of City Escape. xDmtwinny wrote:Respawn Point's back!

I'm hoping that I can watch more of it this year. Normally I get interrupted by work or other commitments. However, I have the Christmas period off work!
Should be good.
