Play as a terrifying Barack Obama in The Race for the White House
Lewis Denby June 12, 2012 - 12:11 pmNews: Political simulator The Race for the White House releases later this month, and features a terrifying approximation of US President Barack Obama’s face.
Oh, good grief, my eyes! That terrifying sorta-approximation of US President Barack Obama comes from a new game called The Race for the White House, which releases for PC and Mac later this month, with mobile platforms to follow. From the 28th June, you’ll be able to play as Obama and other presidential candidates in a game that boasts “3D animated faces and hours of dialogue with impersonation.” With impersonation!
Frankly, I can’t wait to hear what Mr. Pseudobama sounds like if that’s his face – a sort of Riddler-esque caricature that turns semi-convincing by the time you get to his forehead.
So, you’ll be able to choose between two difficulty levels (‘Realistic’ sets appropriate budgets and voting polls, while ‘Equal Start’, surprisingly, gives everyone an equal start) and battle for political supremacy. Play versus the AI or versus another human player online. Just definitely, definitely play as Pseudobama. If you can handle it.

“Pseudobama” is now my favourite word.
God whoever thought up this game needs to go have their head examined by a medical professional.
