Retro Gamers Speedrunning for Charity


"Awesome Games Done Fast" group is doing a charity marathon 24/7 stream for a week to raise money for The Prevent Cancer Foundation.

There's nothing cooler then watching the old retro games you used to play as a kid, and watch these guys destroy them by completing them in the fastest time. If you feel like supporting their cause please donate on the twitch channel. They've already raised over $40,000 and is set for their target for $100k+.

Its great that they embrace the not so stellar programming from the old games and use glitches to save time, and try to skip cutscenes!

My personal favourites last year was Super Meat Boy, Super Mario Bro's, Super Monkey Ball, Tony Hawks 2 and Pokemon Green! I'm gonna be watching this all week... dunno how much sleep I'm gonna get! =D

Press play to watch live!
