Where to Find the Obama Ad in Burnout Paradise

October 17, 2008 in News comments 13

Those Obama ads seen in Burnout Paradise seem to be proven real.
They only appear in the Xbox 360 version of the game however - sorry PS3 owners.

MTV Multiplayer has detailed exactly where you can see them (with a map!)

Insert a copy of “Burnout Paradise” into an Xbox 360*

Make sure you’re living in a battleground state. (States listed in second paragraph here)

Then drive at the location marked in the map below to see the Obama ad that everyone’s talking about.

    It would have been hilarious if the PS3 version had McCain ads instead.

      Yes. Yes it would.


      I wouldn't have been surprised if they didn't have that in the PS3 Version tbh.

      But yeah, WHY exactly did they do that?

    Heh - that would be pretty legit Avalith.

    Can anyone who owns a 360 copy confirm this for us?

    Ha Avalith now the systems would have taken political party sides as well... Confirmation would be nice. ^^

    That's interesting that they also made it appropriate to the state you're in too. I suppose since I live in Texas that if I did have a 360 version I wouldn't see it then.

      Such is the new age of content and context driven advertising. A smart tactic indeed.

    Woah, that's subliminal messaging on a new level! Pretty awesome and funny easter egg. Clever, too!

    And yes Avalith, it would be hilarious! XD
