Some stoners were playing this video game called Burnout Paradise (of course), and they noticed a funny billboard in the video game. Yes, that’s your Barack Obama, telling the Xbox crowd about how people sometimes vote, for candidates, in these things called elections. But there is no way to actually vote within the video game, YET. Maybe next time! [Jalopnik]
Tomorrow: McCain rolls out an ad where Mario and Luigi are Patriotic Americans fighting to rescue America’s virtue from a Terrorist Gorilla wielding flaming barrels of mass destruction.
To be fair, there’s a McCain ad in the version you can play on your shortwave radio.
Nothing beats my McCain/Palin twelve sided die.
Yeah, i saw it the other day when i was playin it. In fact, you get more points for ramming cars and pickups off the road if they have McCain/Palin bumper sticks. Hahaha…video game humor. Man, i need a vagina right about now.
McCain, on the other hand, thinks “Xbox” is another word for what he calls his wife!
Heynow!
IN TEH TANKS!!!
I may need to buy this game now.
Obama had to respond after McCain bought all the center squares on bingo cards.
I’ve played every version of Burnout there is, except for Paradise City because I don’t have the right console.
But I’ve been leaning towards the Wii more than the PS3 with the xb running a distant 3rd.
Now you mutherfluckers have thrown this into the goddamn mix.
The two campaigns’ competence/incompetence ratio is approaching infinity and threatening to go all UNDEFINED on us.
Who needs video games when McCain’s already cornered the Lincoln Log and the hoop-and-stick markets?
This just simply put “shows off his famousness!”
Gotta love it. Us gamers are mobilizing- because fuckwad biblethumpers are trying to blame all the violence in the world on games (nevermind that most gamers are over 30), and attempting to take away our constitutional right to bear video-game arms. This is especially ironic to me, because this is the same base who are the ones who are threatening violence at the Palin/McCain rallies.
I am one of those rare women who love me a violent vidja game- I think mowing down people in GTA 4 is what keeps me so darn nice in my regular life.
Found this kind of interesting: http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/207372/video-game-execs-prefer-obama-to-mccain/
They tried to sneak in a Hot Coffee mini-game featuring Palin, but no matter how the players diddled the buttons, virtual Sarah would gnaw off the player’s penis quicker than a hungry pitbull locked in with a room full of plumb, gravy-soaked infants.
If you go back and hit up up down down right right left right left, you can access the secret ad for Jimmy Carter in Pong.
Brilliant ad placement. We will win the Paultard vote.
gurukalehuru: I thought they were all playing MMORPGs shouting about fiat currency and the doubloon standard
Wii are voting for Barry. Unless they find out wii registered through ACORN.
And this is the kind of game where you would make every effort to send that sweet car of yours flying through every billboard available.
Barack Obama: Condoning dangerously awesome driving.
Apropos of nothing, how much longer do I need to see W sitting on the crapper? Is this some kind of new bailout?
in my computer chess game white always goes first. that is just not fair.
btw, the score of last night’s giant game was buried in the wapo this am. the msm obviously is not doing it’s job.
,,,,,.
Burnout Paradise also has a free motorcycle expansion.
…you would think that in a game where you get points for crashing expensive vehicles you would see a lot more WALNUTS! billboards instead?!
Can you do Vertical Takedowns on McCorpse in his F-350?
Can you also drive a tank?
naveed: It should already be undefined, as whatever Obama’s competence would be compared to McCain’s zero.
Feh, I’ll be impressed when they come out with Hoors over Hanoi where you risk getting shot down over Nam and your cell mate, prematurely gray, wants teh Ho Chi Minh Trail. Someone get GTA on the phone there’s some tort-, er Gitmo mild re-edjimicaton to be done.
naveed: fortunately elitist math doesn’t correspond to the real world
“All your vote are belong to us.”
Some one had to say it.
You go back in time to prevent the Obaminator from being born, which is easy, but then Randy Scheuneman congratulates you personally, Sara Connor gets her head blown off, and you figure out you were duped. Curse you, Walnuts!
The Obaminator comes back new and improved, but Michael Biehn’s career is over.
That’s when I ran out of Doritos and M&M’s, so I don’t know how it ends.
Video game? You mean like a “talkie”? Or like those Spaced invaders?
Barry should also advertise on large penises. Then supply the huge penis owner with a bottle of Belvedere, 1 tab of cialis, a Barry mask and a vote by mail ballot. And then, after hours and hours of mindblowing buttsex with the stranger in the Barry mask, I may be persuaded to fill out the ballot and put in the mailbox. ONLY THEN.
I’ve been seeing McCain/Palin “Mavericks for the Western Territories” banners in Oregon Trail.
Special Agent Jack Mehoff: Sadly I rolled a “Palin” for Intelligence and a “McCain” for Charisma.
Crap.
I think this is temporary, If I remember correctly, advertisers can purchace billboard space in the game (you probably have to be online to see it). It’s like that weekend of the Gold Biscut Flour Hour McCain Sponsored on the AM radio.
I think McCain just got pwnd.
McCain’s trying to work out a deal for an ad in Wii Fit - Shuffleboard edition
Wii are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
Why is he grimacing like that?
mcreigh: He knows he’s about to get a car in the face.
