Desert Bus For Hope Charity Live Stream 8 Happening Now
Desert Bus for Hope, the charity live stream that marathons the infamous Desert Bus video game every year, is currently running its eight marathon.
Over the course of its many marathons, which began in 2007, the charity has raised a lifetime total of more than $2 million, all donated to Child's Play. Child's Play is a charity organization that donates video games and toys to hospitals. You can watch the live stream here, which keeps things entertaining with assorted games and challenges outside of Desert Bus.
If you're unfamiliar with Desert Bus, it isn't so much a video game as much as it is an interactive experiment in patience. The game is part of an unreleased title called Penn & Teller's Smoke and Mirrors, and tasks players with driving form Tuscon to Las Vegas in real time. If you make it, you get a point. You can find out more about the game by heading here.
