Obama Advertising In Video Games

"Why bother with ads? When I vote, I already feel like I'm in the most exciting game ever."
Doug Laramie,

"Interesting. It did look like a couple of Resident Evil zombies I wasted were wearing McCain-Palin T-shirts."
Charles Kirk,
Computer Consultant
"Politics has no place in video games, unless it is in my favorite Xbox game, Wizards & Kings, where there is both politics and wizardry."
