Extra Life 2012

I'm pleased to announce that I will be participating in Extra Life this year! For those that haven't heard about it, Extra Life works with children's hospitals around the world to raise money for helping treat kids with any illness regardless of income.

Extra Life is a 24 hour event held once a year in order to raise money. Starting at 8 AM on October 20th, 2012, I'll be attempting a 24 hour video game session, along with the rest of the participants on team Giantbomb. My goal, since this is the first year I will be participating, is a mere 100 dollars. Every little bit counts; last year, they raised 1.2 million dollars.

I am taking suggestions of games to play on my Twitter feed, @zollozstudios, as well as in the comments here and at the Extra Life page. I am also planning on streaming the entire session on Ustream.

So please, help my hospital, the Helen DeVos Children's Hospital of Grand Rapids, Michigan, and donate any amount at this link. Any and all help is appreciated.
