Obama And Palin Soon Playable In Mercenaries 2

Well, there once was that rumor going around that Obama and Palin will be playable characters in the hit EA game Mercenaries 2. When watching G4 today, yeah we watch it, I tuned into one of my favorite shows on the network, X-play, and in their Gaming Update they confirmed that both Barack Obama and Sarah Palin will be playable characters in Mercenaries 2.

“Mercenaries 2 is a game seemingly ripped straight out of today’s headlines and fueled with the same type of over-the-top action found in the best summer blockbuster films. It only makes sense we inject the game with a spin on current affairs. The timing was too good to let pass.” said Tom Stratton, Pandemic Studios.
