Obama Ads Appearing In 18 Xbox Live Games

by Sal Romano on October 16, 2008 at 9:43 pm

Obama is not just campaigning for the president of these United States in the real world, but in the virtual word as well. First his ads appeared in Burnout Paradise, but there are actually 18 games you can find him campaigning in.

Through the Xbox LIVE service, Obama is campaigning in games such as Guitar Hero III, The Incredible Hulk, NASCAR 09, NBA Live 08 and NFL Tour. Ads are not found in the PlayStation 3 versions of these games since they are through Microsoft’s ad service.

Look out for Obama during your next gaming session. You never know where he’ll pop up.

    It’s either MS supporting Obama or Obama is asking for ad campaigning from MS. I wonder why it isn’t in the PS3 versions?
    Hmm…

    Obama is obviously a 360 fanboy. That’s why the candidates hate each other so much. I mean, their angst toward each other has nothing to do with economic policies or budget proposals, but with much more serious issues like whether or not MGS4 is coming to the 360. Obama says is probably will be while McCain says that it’s not possible to run MGS4 on an “inferior” 360. You can see now why the campaign has taken such a mean tone on both sides. Frankly, things would be going much smoother if Clinton would have won the nomination, she’s a Wii fan.
