It looks like gamers are being nice and charitable. Loads of gaming related companies are doing nice things to try and support the Red Cross and other related Hurricane Katrina related groups.
Bungie (makers of Halo) are selling T-shirts on their site and all profits from their shop in September go towards aid
Everquest II has got a new command added, ‘/donate’ that takes players to the donation site
Even Penny Arcade are auctioning original artwork on eBay
Who says that all gamers know how to do is kill and kill again?

Oh, wait, no, I’m talking crap. I hate it when people condemn an entire group of people (and not a small one either) because it contains a few nutjobs.
