Trailer: ‘Burnout: Paradise’ by Electronic Arts Inc.

AP: Nine video games from Electronic Arts Inc., ranging from the extremely popular "Madden 09" football game to the street racing "Burnout: Paradise," feature in-game ads from the Obama campaign. The ads—they appear on billboards and other signage—remind players that early voting has begun and plug a campaign Web site. (Note: This trailer does not show the Obama billboard.)

Well, what would ya expect from Hussein but to campaign in fantasyland? After all, that’s where he and the other whacko libs live.

Oh for crying out loud! So now no one can get from politics and reality for one hour by playing a flipping video game without a political add crammed down your throat? I still want to punch the person that thought it would be great to start making VERY long advertisements during movie previews, but now butting into my video gaming time? I guess its time to say no to EA games from now on since this company isn’t fair and giving McCain a blurb too. What a shame I liked EA games.

If McCain paid for it, I’m sure they’d give him an ad too.

Stay out of my games! EA has seen the last of my monies for this indoctrination of the socialist front! We have to hear this political crap for months now it comes to my games! NO WAY!

I will not be picking up this game!!   October 20th, 2008 - 12:58 am

I will not buy any game that has any kind of political adds, you want to sell products fine, try to tell me how to vote on something and you have crossed the line, Game time is my time. Get the hell out of my game. If any of my games I do have get any adds like that in it, I will demand a full refund!!!
FU EA
