Be A Hero! Play Halo 3 To Support Haiti Relief Efforts

The Haiti tragedy has effected alot of us. The world has really surprised me by coming together in effort to show support to Haiti in their time of need. Bungie has summoned the gamer community to help support the Haiti relief. Play 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, Bungie will make a $100 donation on behalf of the community to the Red Cross for Haiti relief efforts, up to a maximum of $77,000. All you have to do is rock a special emblem and play a game online and know that you’ve done a small part to help those in need.

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.

I’m going to dust off Halo 3: ODST to join the fight, so make sure to add gamertag DJKrome.
