GameBlast is basically the UK version of Extra Life. It's to help raise money for SpecialEffect, a great charity over here that help disabled people enjoy video games by modifying controllers, systems and a whole host of other stuff. Over the last weekend in February (24/25/26) there will be a load of live streams running throughout the entire weekend. http://gameblast17.com is the address for the event, give it a look!

I took part last year with our site, and we raised about £750 for the. This year, I want to try and raise even more! We gave away a ton of cool shit last year, including Press Kits, Limited edition games, headsets, T Shirts and a bunch more. We're in talks at the moment to get a whole host more stuff for this year! If anyone else is taking part, throw your links in here and let's get a GAF community of support going!

Every donation over £5 at http://bit.do/ngbgameblast will get you put into the hat to win some of the stuff we've been given so far.

(Apologies if this seems a bit self-promotion-y, I just wanted to raise awareness of the weekend and the amazing cause that it's helping out )

Bit of a bump here, but we've just had some more stuff promised to us for GameBlast - including Press kits for Uncharted 4 and Bloodborne!

Given the minor kerfuffle that kicked off a couple of months ago, it seems that there's a few people interested in these Drop £5 to SpecialEffect at http://bit.do/ngbgameblast and you could end up with one!



Sorry for pimping again, but I'm really excited about these!

We're currently about to start hour 20... If anyone fancies it, chuck us a few quid and you could win one of the press kits, amongst a bunch of other games that are still left!
