It's been just about six months since our last run to attempt to beat Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess in 48 hours. Our attempt was a mixed bag of emotions as we failed at our quest to save Hyrule, yet we were able to bring together gamers from across the world and raise over $1200 for the Child's Play Charity. It was definitely one of the coolest experiences of my life and something I will remember forever.

And today, I am pleased to let everyone know that we plan on trying to beat the games again. Right now, the schedule is to kick-off at 5PM on Friday, August 1st and then run through the games, all while collecting donations again for Child's Play.

We've have two goals for this event. First, we want to be sure that we do in fact beat all four games in 48 hours. We've been practicing a bit at the games and will definitely be using a Nintendo 64 for Majora's Mask this time in hopes that we don't have the game freeze on us multiple times again. Our second goal is to raise $2000 or more in donations for Child's Play. We will begin taking donations immediately through ChipIn. For those of you who are unfamiliar with ChipIn, it is a service that allows us to keep track of donations all while your dollars go straight to Child's Play.



We're going to be looking for help to promote and raise awareness about the event here in the next week or so. If anyone is interested, send me an e-mail to Cameron@CameronBanga.com. Otherwise, be sure to check out the site more here in the next couple of weeks for more details.

Yes, I'm looking forward to taking another crack at this. Get a little redemption. What Cameron didn't mention is the order of the games that will be played. It'll be a little different.

The order will be: Ocarina, Waker, Majora, Twilight.

Not in chronological order, granted, but the spirit remains the same. This time, we will get all four. Guaranteed.
