Yesterday might have Wednsday for most, but for fans of Guild Wars and ArenaNet, it was Guild Wars 2-day. Not only did we get the final profession reveal (see NOT a minstrel, sadly.) but ArenaNet had a day of Q & A with some of the developers and designers of Guild Wars 2 over on reddit. And to top the day off, there was even some beta details released! As I said, it was ArenaNet’s day and it was glorious. Continue reading
So, this past weekend, I did a 72-hour marathon for Extra Life and Pink Day in LA. Well, almost 72 hours. It was more like 65-ish, but I think that’s still good. And I’m never doing it again, as fun as it was. The 72-hours, I mean. I’m just going to stick with 24 hours from now on. And then I spent all-day Monday recuperating by prepping more boxes to be moved, but it’s all good, because nothing bad came of it, right? Right? Continue reading
I say 72-hours, but really, it’s more like an attempt for 72-hours. I can already tell you it won’t happen, but that doesn’t mean I can’t try. Oh, I mean a 72-hour gaming marathon, of course. You know, for Extra Life. Yeah, that thing, which I’m starting at 7am EST today on this day which is Friday. Because, why not? Don’t answer that.
So, what will I be doing? For one, attempting to stream it live on my livestream (or click the tab that says “Livestream”) assuming my internet can play nice for once. So, there’s that, and I may or may not open a public hangout for random strangers to come yell at me in Google+, but, well, we’ll see. But, what games will I be playing? Let’s go over a list of what I probably will play.
Bastion
Minecraft
Guild Wars
TES4: Oblivion
Fallout: New Vegas
City of Heroes
Rusty Hearts
And maybe something else, if those don’t eat all of my time.
And, of course, I will be joined by my brother on this quest, but he is Mr. Crankypants, so don’t expect our witty banter all the time as he’ll have to take a nap every so often.
I tell ya, It’s going to be a busy weekend and you’re all invited to watch and listen to me slowly lose my mind. It’ll be good fun for everyone, promise. And if you feel like supporting a good cause, well, I already gave that link. Also, don’t forget Pink Day in TOMORROW, so if you play Guild Wars, be sure to come hang out in any one of the 15-or-so International Districts of Lion’s Arch for a good time and a great cause. And if you don’t, that’s fine too.
Stay lazy, good fellows, and stay awesome.
