THE PLAYSTATION SHOW UK – GAMING MARATHON III
So many of you were asking when will be our next gaming marathon and after the huge success of the first two, we would be absolutely crazy not to it again.
So this is it our official announcement of The Playstation Show UK – 24 Hour Gaming Marathon III.
As with the previous instalments and as we think you’ll agree that they do an amazing job, this gaming marathon will once again be in support of Special Effect
If you are not sure who or what Special effect is then read this:
We put fun and inclusion back into the lives of people with physical disabilities by helping them to play video games.
By using technology ranging from modified joypads to eye-control, we’re finding a way for people to play to the very best of their abilities. But we’re not just doing it for fun. By levelling the playing field, we’re bringing families and friends together and having a profoundly positive impact on therapy, confidence and rehabilitation.SpecialEffect.org.uk
And for those of you who don’t know what this means, let me explain:
On Sunday 1st May 2016 at 10am, the hosts of The Playstation Show UK (and others in the community) will begin a marathon of playing games for 24hours Non-Stop* – The whole event will be live streamed so people can come see us fight with our eye lids and keep sleep at bay.
This page will be updated overtime when we know more information on prizes and the possibility of you guys partly controlling our 24hours
*Those taking part are allowed toilet and food breaks, come on we are not that mean
We are also offering the opportunity for people who donate to choose a game for us to play during the 24 hours – a £5 donation will get you an Half Hour slot where you can chose the game and start time – more detailed information can be found on the following post: http://www.tpsukpodcast.com/4740-2/
