The guys over at gamemarathons.com are holding a points-based competitive Banjo marathon. Members from Ocean City Trinity, Triple Speed Runners and Gamin For Charity will battle it out on all of the games where Banjo has made a playable appearance.

• Banjo-Kazooie
• Banjo-Tooie
• Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge
• Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
• Diddy Kong Racing
• Banjo-Pilot
• Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing

They have designed Xbox 360-style achievements for each game and whichever team has the most points at the end of the event will win.

The 48-hour marathon will be held today at 6PM (US Eastern Time) and will benefit the World Food Programme, so make sure you head on over and make a donation.
