Madden, Tecmo Bowl pick Patriots to win Super Bowl

Bostonians can cheer thanks to endorsements from Madden NFL 08 and Tecmo Super Bowl when predicting a winner for Super Bowl XLII.

According to a simulated game of Madden NFL 08, the New England Patriots will best the New York Giants on Sunday's championship by a score of 38-30. A pass from Tom Brady to Randy Moss cemented the victory leading the Patriots to a perfect 19-0 season, said EA in a statement, while adding that Madden has picked the Super Bowl winner for five years running.

The legendary Tecmo Super Bowl, first released in 1991 on NES and SNES, also picked the Patriots to win. Using an updated player roster, ArmchairGM simulated the same game resulting in a New England win, 24-21.

Super Bowl XLII (that's 42 for the Roman numeral impaired) airs February 3, 2008, at 6:00 pm EST on Fox.
