Barack Obama to appear in NBA JAM
Barack Obama and other US political figures to star in the game
When the new NBA Jam was announced many wondered if Bill Clinton would reappear in the newest version of the game. EA have done one better this time by not only including current US President Barack Obama, but a whole load of other US politicians.
Joining Obama in the craziness is Republican rival John McCain and the ever funny Sarah Palin. Not only that but the game will star George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Bill and Hillary Clinton and finally everyones favourite Vice Presidents Al Gore and Joe Biben.
Each of the politicians will have their own unique abilities. ESPN Creative Director Trey Smith says that "ever since we announced this game, people wanted Bill Clinton to be back. They knew that Obama was a baller, so they wanted him in the game. It’s just this perfect storm for us and we couldn’t be happier to include all of these characters in the game."
Allegedly these characters are exclusive to the Wii, but we think that holds as much water as the previous promises EA has made with NBA Jam. If they had integrated online into the Wii version, then we might be happy.
