You know of course that not only are they donating 100% of the tshirt sales to the Red Cross. Not just the tshirts, they're donating ALL of their Bungie store profits through the end of February.

Even if you don't want to give a monetary amount, Bungie will be donating $100 for every thousand people that are playing Halo 3 and ODST on the 20th/21st with the heart emblem, up to $77,000.

They are using the success of the game to raise awareness and make people feel like they're contributing. Don't be a douche and try to turn this into something political or philisophical. Give or participate... or not. But don't turn this into a debate.

This isn't the right time or place for a debate. Participate, or not. It's up to you. Here are the details:

http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=24356

"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."

Wow ten cents per person go big spenders. This is just a way to form more hype around Halo, if they break some sort of record for active players for a day or something.wooooode
