I was at my Blockbuster the other day returning some games and saw a poster at the front that was about badges of honour. I went over and read it and they are pretty awesome. They're these little XBOX themed pins that cost 2 dollars and the money goes to the Children's Miracle Network. There is a new one coming out once a week for 5 weeks. I got the first one, the PGR 3 King of Kudos one, on the last day they had it and i'll pick up the new one soon.
Here is a link with pictures and an article;

Sounds like a good idea, especially since the money goes to charity. Shame they aren't doing it at this side of the pond.

I'll pick one up next time I'm in Blockbuster. I kinda hope they have the PGR3 one still though as I don't really want the PDZ button.

Very nice.
I want the King of Kudos.
This is a good idea on Microsofts part as they know we'll buy these and we're contributing at the same time.

They are pins Scooby. I have no idea what that Sgt Twistables guy was reading where he found pieces of paper that he couldn't find the honour in, but whatever.

I got number three, Perfect Dark Zero, and number four, Splinter Cell, today. That means that I only need one more to have them all, just in case you were wondering. :D

anyone look to see if they are on ebay yet? and how much they are going for
I bring this thread from the dead, since Microsoft Canada brings back badges of honour another time. If you donate at least 2$ (for Children Miracle Network) you may get badges from Gears of War, Rock Band and Ninja Gaiden 2.

Sorry to dash your hopes folks, but this time around it is just in Canada.

I'm surprised MS has not implemented game badges on people Live page yet like 360Voice does. That would double up with achiements and drive OCD whores even more into a buying frenzy.

I was close to picking one up. I really want the Ninja Gaiden 2 one... but for some reason I decided against it.
