Barack Obama campaigns on Xbox 360

Barack Obama’s campaign team has bought ‘Obama For President’ billboards in Burnout Paradise.

I can confirm that the Obama campaign has paid for in-game advertising in Burnout,” Holly Rockwood, director of corporate communications at Electronic Arts, told Gigaom.

Like most television, radio and print outlets, we accept advertising from credible political candidates. Like political spots on the television networks, these ads do not reflect the political policies of EA or the opinions of its development teams.”

EA CEO John Riccitiello is a supporter of Obama and has already donated to his campaign.
