Extra Life/SingSterling: LIVE FEED!

Extra Life/SingSterling: LIVE FEED! photo
     Charity

Starting from 5pm British Manchester Time, Destructoid.com and Sarcastic Gamer proudly presents SingSterling, a live SingStar marathon in the name of Extra Life, a charity raising money for pediatric cancer.

I'll be playing SingStar for twelve hours, taking a break between each of our ten copies of the game. If, after twelve hours, I have raised $5000, I will then play for another twelve hours. Should you, the Destructoid community (and the gamer community at large) FAIL to meet my demands, the second half of the marathon will instead be spent having fun.

To check out SingSterling, GO HERE for our live feed. It's a live feed and you can watch it with your eyes! Prior to 5pm you'll see some general mucking about as Wardrox and I prepare ourselves for the singing madness. 

Respond, have fun, but above all, DONATE. This is for children with cancer. It will cost less than one game to help change young lives.
