Last week we noted unconfirmed sightings of an ?Obama for President? billboard in the Xbox 360 racing game Burnout Paradise. Today we?re able to report that it is, in fact, an official advertisement placed by the senator?s campaign team.

oh god no

this whole election has officially jumped the shark

That shit is high level marketing skills.

fuck this guy is good

outstanding :)

In other news, the McCain campaign released a statement condemning Obama's association with a terrorist cell with nearly 400 members known only as "The XBOX 360." McCain says he has no idea what the name represents, but he's sure that they're all terrorist-y and stuff.

mccain needs to do like.... i dunno..... ads on the back of geritol boxes

What a joke.

Too bad things did not work out when they were thinking of sponsoring a Sprint Cup car :(

nice shit

Obama really has tapped into technology with his campaign. The other day I was at a friends house who has Dish Network. There is an Obama channel on there where you can tune in 24/7 and get news and information about him. He also have the text messaging service and an Ipod App.

that's why he's up 14 points

bullshit, Obama just schooled the politicians for the 21st century

Yep and in the electoral college polls he is up 357 to 181 McCain now officially needs a miracle.

He's republican. There's always a miracle.

Yup. He's joking himself right into the White House :winkwink:

lol fuck that. progression is one thing, but when you're invading my video games, i'm taking that shit personal :1orglaugh

i'ma roll over in bed tonight with barack spooning me, watch

mmm hmm.... they hoodwinked Gore, you think they woldn't do it to Obama?

Setup a video camera, I'd pay to see that.

well unless they don't mind spinning the US into riots and civil war..they may think twice about that

The difference is that with the last 2 elections it really came down to who would win Florida or Ohio so there could be some serious shenanigans in those states. This year McCain has to win every single one of the toss up states to win. If he loses any of them he loses so he would have to pull of some kind of 10 state hijacking.

excellent point

I can't wait until I'm seeing Ron Paul sponsorship burned into GTA6 for the life of the console. Nothing like playing that in 20 years when feeling nostalgic and getting depressed.

thats why i expect martial law to be declared on nov. 3rd :1orglaugh

very creative, a great idea.

even though i am strongly opposed to ingame advertising, it is nice to see a candidate that actually knows that avenue is open.

Why are you "strongly" opposed?
