In the story “Presidential Ads Embedded in Video Games?” By: Karl Fisch, Xbox live gamer Dragunov765, found pictures of Presidential Candidate Barack Obama on a billboard in Burn out paradise. Nearly 1/3 of every American household has a video game console that can play online. So this brings up the question, should video games have Presidential candidates ads in them? Karl Fisch said “I’d have to say yes.” I on the other hand would have to disagree, because the ads may anger many players and they could eventually protest. Most video game players are between 30-37, so there would be no big problem for the voting age to play a factor on this topic. If technology could play a part in Presidential candidate’s ads, it could really change history, but for now that is left for time to tell.
