We are officially less than a week away from our next Project M event so today we are debuting the trailer and sharing all of the final details you need to know! This Saturday, December 14th, we will race through one of the greatest action/horror games ever made, Resident Evil 4! We'll be live all day long and we want YOU there to enjoy the festivities, cheer us on, and witness the shenanigans that are guaranteed to occur.

The Basics

  • What: 4Player Races through Resident Evil 4
  • When: Saturday, December 14, 2019 @ 9:00AM (CST)
  • Where: Watch all day on twitch.tv/fourplayerpodcast OR on 4pp.tv (be sure to use Theater mode)
  • Why: Because it's fun and to raise money for a good cause (The Trevor Project)

The Cause

Let's be real for a second. We play and talk about video games because we love them and because we're nerds but it's important to remember that it's a big world out there and there are people in it who are struggling. People who feel like they aren't free to be themselves. People who may have considered suicide as an option. While Project M is meant to be fun and celebratory of this industry that we love, we are also going to be raising money in support of The Trevor Project which was founded to provide support for young members of the LGBTQ community. We hope you come to hang out and enjoy the festivities but if you also want to chip in a few bucks for a great cause, you have our sincere gratitude.


The Rules

Now for the fun part. As we mentioned above, we will be using a points system this time around throughout the competition. This will give each of the competitors a chance to accrue additional points in the hopes of coming out ahead when the dust has settled. Chris Davis will be paying close attention but he'll be relying on you to help call out points for players throughout the day so we hope you will get involved.
