The funds were raised as part of an in-game event for the company&acute;s Star Wars Galaxies Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) video game, where players were allowed to demolish abandoned or unoccupied player-created houses and buildings. Fighters from the Galactic Demolitions Crew swooped down from the stars and bombed the buildings. <br> <br>A crowd of more than 150 was on hand at the Speakeasy in Austin to see SOE Austin VP of Development John Blakely present Austin HfH Executive Director Michael Willard with an oversized photo check for the donation. <br> <br>In addition to the donation, SOE Austin staff members will also engage in volunteer work to help create affordable housing for those in need in the Austin community.</div></td></tr></table></ul> <br> <br>Zwar betrifft das uns nicht, aber soetwas ist doch immer sch&ouml;n zu lesen. <br> <br>Link: <a href="http://eq2players.station.sony.com/news_archive_content.vm?id=1314&amp;section=News&a mp;locale=en_US" target=_blank>Hier zur kompletten meldung</a>
