Most newspapers and Las Vegas has Super Bowl XLVII in favor of the San Francisco 49rs with a spread of three points, give or take. However, the EA Sports says otherwise.
Yahoo Games reported on Monday that the video game Madden ’13 by EA Sports predicts the winner of this year’s Super Bowl to be the Baltimore Ravens.
According to the article, the video game has been predicting the Super Bowl the last nine years with a simulation game. So far, the game has a record of 7-2. Not bad, right?
For Super Bowl XLVII, the game predicts that the Ravens will win with a field goal 27-24. This prediction will give Ray Lewis, linebacker for the Ravens, his retirement a grand story.
The video game has only been wrong twice out of the last nine years. So, it looks good for Ray Lewis so far.
Not only does Madden ’13 predict the winners, but it also has the ability to guess the scores closely enough to what the actual scores end up in the Super Bowls. It’s a bit freaky, but true at the same time.
