Hey folks. ExtraLife 2015 is rapidly approaching and this year I have decided to put together a rough outline of the activities I will be partaking in. For those of you unfamiliar with Extra Life, it is a world wide event in which people play games for 24 hours of video games to support the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Think of it like a charity walk, but with video games. To add to the fun you I will be streaming the entire event starting at 9am EDT on November 7, 2015 until I complete my marathon at 9am EDT on November 8, 2015 (). I have listed the games I plan to be playing throughout the day as well as some cartel pack giveaways for you loyal SWTOR fans. Please note that the schedule below is only an outline and I reserve the right to change it on the fly if need be. You can donate to my ExtraLife campaign . This year, all donations will help support Cohen Children’s Medial Center in New Hyde Park, NY.
