Child's Play
Gabe, the pencil-wielding maestro behind the art of Penny-Arcade, has decided to give of himself to the world. Uh, not like that! He's launching a charity drive to give toys and video games to sick kids this holiday, in part to combat the perception that video games are training kids to be ruthless killers. He's set up an Amazon wishlist for the kids of Seattle Children's Hospital. I can't really put it any better than he did when he wrote: "Penny Arcade has a readership of something like 150,000 gamers across the world. We are arguably the largest community of gamers on the internet. The important word there being community. This isn’t IGN, this isn’t Gamespy, we are not a faceless corporation, you are not just a number tracked by a database and then relayed to hungry advertisers. You guys have proven yourselves to be a powerful force when stirred into action. Here is your opportunity to use that power to do some real good. Let’s give these kids the Christmas that they deserve and let’s give the news papers a different kind of story to write about gamers." This just makes me love Gabe and Tycho all the more - as if I needed more reason to. So log in and pick out a gift - spread the love of gaming. Spread it! [Update: Snowmit adds that P-A has this permanent link to the Child's Play project. Thanks, Snowmit!] Posted by jane at November 25, 2003 10:36 PM | TrackBackComments
That's such an amazingly cool thing to do. Those guys are great. Posted by: adam on November 25, 2003 11:36 PMThey've set up a permanent linking page here. Apparently people have already donated $8000 worth of stuff. Posted by: Snowmit on November 26, 2003 08:05 AMI bought them a GC game off their wish list after seeing the link from here, so jane you can consider that at least one gift-assist. Thanks for spreading the word about such a good cause. I bought them a GC game off their wish list after seeing the link from here, so jane you can consider that at least one gift-assist. Thanks for spreading the word about such a good cause. Just a little update for those that don't frequent Penny Arcade. Quote from a news post by Gabe: This is like out of a movie. I'm proud on so many levels. Posted by: Draigon on December 1, 2003 01:20 PMThat part made me laugh and laugh. Then I donated some money. Posted by: Snowmit on December 1, 2003 02:45 PMwow, tycho and gabe have already raised over $30,000! Posted by: TitusByronicus on December 3, 2003 11:06 AMseeing the pictures actually brought a tear to me eye. OKAY i was sniffling like a baby! seriously, i'm moved beyond words. P-A, i fucking love you guys. Posted by: jane on December 3, 2003 11:39 PMA-freakin'-men, Jane. Today's pictures with the boxes piled to the ceiling made me all misty. I'm going to throw fifty bucks towards some girl toys (simply because I have a feeling they're being neglected). I tried getting my game team to throw in some money, but evidently they can't be bothered. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
