DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 19, 2010 - The hot-selling 2010 Ford Taurus takes a giant leap into cyberspace today, starring in a new online interactive game that takes product placement in casual gaming to the next level by fully integrating the vehicle and its technology and features into the gaming experience.
The game, ''White Collar: Chasing the Shadow,'' an extension of the critically acclaimed USA NETWORK drama ''White Collar,''which follows a con artist and FBI agent who team up to catch bad guys. The Taurus is not only featured prominently in the television series but now in a new online game that allows players - acting as FBI trainees - to drive the Taurus and use its features to catch a notorious villain dubbed ''The White Shadow.''
''What makes this initiative unique is that the 2010 Taurus isn't just along for the ride,'' said Connie Fontaine, Ford Brand Content & Alliances manager. ''The new and class-exclusive technologies in the Taurus are used to interpret clues and collect evidence.''
