NBA 2K11 Features Virtual Barack Obama Celebration


One thing that has been a constant in the National Basketball Association is that the NBA champions get to visit the White House to spend some time with the President of the United States.

Well, the developers from NBA 2K11 decided to create a victory cut-scene (seen above) where your Association team gets to meet Virtual Obama.

We get more from Pasta Padre:

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
That's pretty awesome to say the least but the Clippers winning an NBA title; that can only happen in a virtual world.
