[30 Nov 2009 | AdamnessX | 0 Comments]

Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, the time has once again come for the latest group of mental gamers to waste away at the hands of their 360.

 

 

As of Friday 27th November, a group of friends have been rocking out to Rock Band for 90 hours straight in order to enter the Guinness World Record (Gamer’s Edition) book for the longest relay Rock Band concert title. Later today marks the end of their efforts.

 

 

Kids, I believe we’re currently having ourselves an official ‘Rock-A-Thon’ (powered by Energizer)!

 

 

A group consisting of Freddie Wong, the Guitar Hero II World Series of Video Games Champion and other professional gamers are currently hitting the stage in Texas for all to see. For every fan that attends, $1 will be going to the popular charity, Child Play (up to $5000 will be given).

 

 

Vice President of Marketing, North America for Energizer, Jim Olsen said, “Now more than ever, charities are in need assistance, so we are thrilled to power The Rock-A-Thon and help raise money for Child’s Play,” “Our Energizer Advanced Lithium batteries will allow for hours and hours of uninterrupted game play, helping The Rock-A-Thon rockers raise money and reach their record.”

 

 

Turns out it’s not all about the fame….
