We're back for a 5th year! The Game Show Throwdown is happening from this Saturday, August 4 at Noon Pacific through at least Sunday the 5th at Noon, live from the Tropicana in Las Vegas. This year, like in previous years, we are playing for Extra Life and the Children's Miracle Network. Like last year, you can either select a general donation to Extra Life for our cause or you can support one of the many people taking part in the event, and the hospital for which they are playing. If you want to donate for our cause, do NOT donate through the "donate" button in the top right corner of the Extra Life page. It will not count towards our goal. You can find a link to the donation page at
http://homegameentertainment.com/throwdown/index.html. All of the fun will be streamed through the aforementioned page and at
https://www.twitch.tv/homegameent.
