For the last seven years, EA Games has used the most up-to-date statistics, and the latest version of the Madden video game to run a simulation of the Super Bowl.
After last night, the celebrated game franchise is 6 for 7. The only time the game was wrong was the unexpected smack-down that the Giants served the Patriots in 2008.
That being said, the Madden Super Bowl simulations don’t seem to get the score right.
Sill, it’s pretty good for video game AI right?
It wasn’t a smackdown. The score was 17-14.
I’m very aware of that, and deliberately chose my words to push you’re buttons.
