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:
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
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!
