I know that not a lot of people don't like Halo3 or ODST, but it's an easy way to help out if you has no moneys to donate http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif ...

So, you want to help but don’t have a way to get one of our shirts or make a monetary donation? Not to worry, we’ve got you covered with the easiest possible way to be a hero – playing Halo!

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.


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.

Yep, it's true. I mentioned it in this thread (http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/4091020922/m/7261086428) along with the "Be A Hero" t-shirt.

I practiced with the PMS girls on Wednesday, and am going to do so again tomorrow. There's nothing better than playing a video game and supporting a good cause at the same time. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I heard about this. I bet Ubisoft doesn't like this being discussed on their website. xD

I am going to get on right now and set up my icon and play for a bit.

I'm on my GIJoesGrlfriend tag, as Spectra FD has never played Halo, http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

I was wondering if anyone would catch that.. That's my husband, haha.

We had to make some new names to even get a game in Halo, aaaand he likes to tell annoying kids that he'll pee in their moms butts, but couldn't fit 'butt' at the end, so that's where that came from http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-tongue.gif

RvB is getting in on the action. I retweeted Burnie's tweet about it. They're playing at 8pm central tonight.

I'm going to a LAN tonight, I'm going to try and convince everyone there to play a little Halo, although these guys are more of the Gears of War type of crowd...

Just get them to get on for a quick custom game - it counts too! I think that every single person that owns Halo can at least do that to help out http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Is this still going on right now? I'd work in a little Halo, next to my excessive MW2, to put in for a good cause.
