On May 7-9, starting at 6:00 P.M. CDT, The Speed Gamers will begin a 48 hour MOTHER, better known outside Japan as EarthBound, Marathon to raise money for Susan G. Komen for the Cure. This is my personal favorite video game series of all time and am excited for just that. However, there's more than that in store for anyone who watches. There will be prizes to be obtained - and if this one turns out anything like last year's MOTHER marathon, there might be some awesome Fangamer swag to be won.

In addition to that, I think that Chuggaconroy might be doing the EarthBound run again this year, but don't hold me to that one - that's an assumption on my part.

Just make sure you show up at http://www.thespeedgamers.com on the 7th of May and you can join in on the fun.
