Madden 10 Predicts Saints to Win Super Bowl XLIV

Going against many experts I've heard over the last week or so, EA's Madden 10 simulator predicts that the New Orleans Saints will win Super Bowl XLIV over the Indianapolis Colts, 35-31.

Madden 10 has been surprisingly accurate in the past, getting 5 of the last 6 predictions correct, including getting within one point of the correct total score.

Me? I don't bet against Peyton Manning's rocket laser arm.

In a surprise announcement, EA has released their latest Battlefield series shooter - Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - as a demo on Xbox Live.

This is the supposed "Modern Warfare 2 killer" according to CEO John Riccitiello. We'll see how it plays, but it certainly looks like a polished product.
