Earlier this year it was discovered that Madden 11 added a visit with President Barack Obama as part of its presentation package in Franchise mode after winning the Super Bowl. 2K Sports is also including Obama as part of the NBA championship celebration in Association mode.
Surprisingly EA Sports took some misguided heat for the decision to include him, even though traditionally Super Bowl winning teams teams meet the President at the White House. It seemed that some wanted to turn the inclusion of Obama into a political statement when in reality it is simply about offering a cool moment as a reward for winning it all…just as those teams in real life get to experience. What do you think of the decision to add Obama to NBA 2K11? Leave your thoughts in the comments!
