Obama Ads Appearing in Video Games


It's been said(over and over and over again) that Barack Obama's campaign has embraced modern technology unlike any in the history of politics. Well, folks, that ain't no lie.

An ad for Obama has popped up in the Xbox 360 racing game 'Burnout Paradise'. A presidential ad strategically placed in a video game titled 'Burnout Paradise'... sorry... we're just enjoying the moment. You may not be impressed with this subversive, brilliant target marketing, but we are. Seriously impressed and amused.

The McCain camp will no doubt respond with a flock of carrier pigeons spreading the sacred word of Palin (which is awesome in its own right), but somehow they always seem a step behind.

'Burnout Paradise'...Priceless. [From: politico.com]
