Sony donates to Children's Hospital in New Orleans

Posted on February 18th, 2008 at 01:17 EDT

Gaming does have some value in society, despite what the Jack Thompsons of the world might have you believe. For example, SCEA has just donated a generous bundle of gaming goodness to the Children's Hospital of New Orleans.



The eight systems, including PS2s, PS3s and PSPs, are available for patients to use in the "teen room," giving the children an opportunity to escape the dreariness of the hospital setting. Sony also provided the two HDTVs seen above as well as rolling storage systems so the systems can be enjoyed by all, anywhere in the hospital.

Generosity such as this simply puts a smile on our faces. If gaming can better the lives of the suffering, then let it.

Now kids are never going to want to leave the hospital.  They'll be breaking each other's legs to be first.

Funny thought.  I wonder if they plan to run F@H when the PS3s aren't being used.
