Platform Nation has announced a unique charity drive, dubbed Playapalooza '08, to take place August 14th, 2008. Playapalooza—a 50-hour gaming marathon—will be conducted in support of nationally recognized children's charity, Child's Play, which provides video games to hospitalized children throughout the world.
Participants in Platform Nation's Playapalooza '08 will play a series of games in timed 30-minute increments, with the gameplay streamed live on Ustream.tv. Each segment will feature text overlays with information about the games and their donors. Games to be featured in the event have been donated from a number of prominent publishers throughout the industry. The event will last for 50 consecutive hours of play and feature as many as 100 games.
At the close of the event, all donated games will be collected and the proceeds given to Child's Play during a public event at this year's Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, Washington.
