Join The G4 Extra-Life Team, Play Video Games And Help Sick Children: Win, Win, Win!

G4 is supporting a great cause this year and we need you to join our team.  Extra Life is an annual 24-hour video game marathon that raises money to help kids at Children's Miracle Network hospitals around the nation. This year's event takes place on October 15th and G4 is planning a 24-hour game session. I mean, we'd probably be playing games anyway, but for this 24 hours, we'll be playing them with a purpose.  We need you to join our team.

Here's how:

Sign up and affiliate yourself with the mighty G4 charity-team by visiting the link and clicking "Join this Team." It's free, and all you need to do is pick a charity, and convince your friends and relatives to donate while you play video games. You can play games as much as you want, but why not shoot for a record? All we ask is that you promote to your friends, family, pets, twitter followers and Friendster friends that you're participating in order to earn cash for the kids - as well as encourage other people to sign up and join the G4TV team. Anyone can be a part of the G4TV team. Anyone awesome, that is.

If you'd rather not join our team, you can still help out sick children by making a donation. Even if it's just $1, that's cool. No one is picky. I'll bet you could donate like 45 cents if you wanted. Why not? Here's what to do to donate: Go to G4's Extra Life page, and pick your a G4 team-member to donate to, and have at it. Throw money at them.

Fortunate members of the G4 Team will recieve cool swag: We're talking t-shirts, DLC for free, and free games. I can't tell you specifically what we're offering yet, but I promise you, it's all very, very cool stuff.

Activision, SEGA, Harmonix, Square-Enix, EA, Rockstar Games, Majesco, Digital Reality, 345 Games, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Valve and ZEN Studios have all offered to support G4TV Team Members, so you're in very good company!
