Be A Hero! Help Bungie Help Haiti

[Miktar]

Right now, in the Bungie Store, you?ll find a special edition of our Superintendent tee. Pick one up and we?ll donate 100% of our profits directly to the relief efforts through the American Red Cross.



In addition to the special shirt, from now until the end of February, we will be donating all of Bungie's profits from the Bungie Store directly to the American Red Cross. If you had your eye on a sweet Bungie hoodie or bag, there?s never been a better time to buy than now since that money will go right to supporting a great cause. Please note that this really only applies to Bungie apparel and accessories in our online store ? if you wanted to add an HD TV or Xbox 360 game to your cart at checkout, Bungie doesn?t actually see any real proceeds from those 3rd party items.

We are rallying our fan community to show their support by playing Halo 3 or ODST online next Wednesday or Thursday while wearing a special emblem signifying your commitment to the cause. For every thousand heroes that participate, we will make a $100 donation on behalf of Bungie and our fan community to the Red Cross for Haiti relief efforts, up to a maximum of $77,000. All you have to do is don a special emblem and play a game online and know that you?ve done a small part to help those in need.

Please mark your calendars and help spread the word!

Here are the specifics:

1. Round up all of your friends and hop online with Halo 3 or ODST any time next from 00:01AM PST Wednesday, 1/20, through 23:59PM PST Thursday 1/21.

2. Edit your appearance settings so your character is wearing the RED HEART emblem.

a. Press START
b. Select ?SETTINGS? / ?APPEARANCE?
c. Select ?EMBLEM?
d. Select ?Hearts? ICON, ?Circle? BACKGROUND
e. Back out to the APPEARANCES menu and select ?COLORS?
f. Set ?EMBLEM PRIMARY? to RED (or MAROON / BRICK / ROSE depending on which game you?re playing!)
g. Set ?EMBLEM SECONDARY? to WHITE

3. Once your emblem is set, play! This can be a custom game or a matchmaking game, just make sure it?s played online, on Xbox LIVE, or we can?t track it.

If you keep playing more games through midnight on Thursday, KEEP THE HEART EMBLEM ENABLED or you may not get counted.

What a brilliant way to capitalize on a tragic natural disaster. Way to go Bungie.
:/

I'll buy a few shirts and stuff, though. That is actually quite decent of them.

Why not make Quake 4 available at half price and donate it to Haiti? (download obviously) it would cost them nothing and I mean.... Quake / earthquake ? .... Hello!?
