Help send relief to Haiti by playing Halo 3 and ODST

News | January 16, 2010 5:31 am
With the recent earthquake that shook up most of Haiti this past Tuesday a lot of relief efforts are underway. Bungie is just one of many companies setting up to send aid to the country to help with relief efforts. Here's the rundown...


1) You can go to the Bungie.net store and buy a special edition Halo 3:ODST superintendent shirt. 100% of the proceeds goes towards aid.

2)Go to the Bungie.net store from now until the end of February and buy anything else. As above the proceeds from those sales will also go towards aid.

3)Play Halo 3 or ODST- If you're short on cash (who isn't?) and can't afford to buy anything right now, sign into Xbox Live and pop in either Halo 3 or ODST starting on Wednesday 1/20 until Thursday 1/21 and complete the following steps

Quote by Bungie.net:



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.



For every thousand that complete these steps and plays a game on LIVE Bungie will donate $100 up to the maximum of $77,000 to the Red Cross.

So yeah when it comes to next Wednesday you can bet I'll be online in ODST with at least a few friends to help raise money for this. Who else is with me?
