TheSpeedGamer’s Resident Evil marathon to raise money for The Diabetes Research and Wellness Foundation begins Friday October 30th @ 6pm cst and will last 48 hours. A live game feed will be broadcast right here on our site www.TheSpeedGamers.com alongside a commentary feed and chatroom.

Example:

ResidentEvilback copy

To keep things interesting there will be a “Pumpkin Cam”. We will place a webcam inside of a pumpkin outside of the house so the viewers will be able to see the trick or treaters in a separate stream beside our main feed. We want the full Halloween experience :P

Capcom will be supporting us for our Halloween marathon. They have donated several prizes such as multiple copies of RE5(360,Ps3 and 2 autographed  PC versions by the producers of RE5) and Re Archives (Wii).  We also have a Resident Evil 5 collector’s edition(Xbox 360) which Phil is giving away and three copies of Looney Land Halloween Hill that Blackduck was able to hook us up with.

Update:

I’ve been keeping this a secret for a little bit, but I think now it’s time to spill the beans.  Capcom has recently contacted us and asked if they could help us out with our marathon.  Of course I said yes, just reading the email got me pumping my fists.  Capcom is home to several of my favorite gaming franchises.

Today Capcom mailed off 2 copies of Resident Evil (PC) autographed by the producers and several RE Darkside Chronicles t-shirts. This is just the beginning though; Capcom has even more in store for the marathon.  As soon as the details are finalized I’ll post them!

    Oh yeah, I am pumped! I have to work during the start, but I should be on often late Friday night and anytime Saturday and Sunday. I haven’t seen much RE besides 4 and 5, so this should be enjoyable.
