Super Bowl Prediction: Madden Picks The Winner: Giants Beat Patriots

There's no reason to watch the Super Bowl game on February 5. We already know who will win. The New York Giants will beat the New England Patriots 27-24. This is the prediction put forth by Madden NFL 12.

Specifically, kicker Lawrence Tynes kicks a game-winning 40-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Giants past the AFC Champion Patriots, bringing home the Giants’ second Super Bowl championship in four years. So it should be a pretty exciting ending.

Wii U E3 2011

Unnamed sources on the internet (man, those guys know everything!) are claiming that the top men at Nintendo are mulling over whether or not to rename the Nintendo Wii U.

The speculation stems from Nintendo promising investors that the Wii U will learn a "bitter lesson" from the launch of the Nintendo 3DS. One of the perceived problems with the roll out of the Nintendo device was that consumers supposedly confused the 3DS with the Nintendo DS, a mistake that seems pretty easy to make.

Couple that with the announcement of the Wii U at E3 2011, which left many baffled as to what, exactly the device is, and you have a muddled message, according to some. That could lead to a new name for the Wii U.

Mario Party 9 Box Art: Brightly Lit But Light On Luigi

Nintendo released the box art for Mario Party 9 yesterday, and it's notable for a couple reasons. First, it's bright enough to give you an aneurysm, and secondly, poor Luigi is barely even there.

Check out the full box art under the "Read More" tag, and see if you can find Luigi.

think about it. In the past few games (mainly SSBB) they've been pushing the idea that luigi is shy and shadowed by his brother. making him hidden like this is just part of developing that idea.

Skyrim should have been in the Adventure GOTY list too. L.A. Noire was cool for like the first while when you play it but it gets boring extremely fast and you will start to realize it's just a completely watered down old school detective version of GTA with enhanced facial animations which is the only thing they could brag about with the game. L.A. Noire definitely wasn't GOTY material in my opinion.

Modern Warfare 3 Cover Art Revealed?

Surprise! Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was the best-selling game of 2011 according to the NPD Analysis. What is interesting however is the fact that Just Dance 3 claimed the number two spot, followed by a bunch of pretty hardcore titles. Sometimes people just need to dance. I get it.

I know all you want is to see the top ten list from 2011 and since I'm nice I'll show it to you. Here's the annual 2011 top 10 games from the NPD Group. Remember that these numbers represent physical retail only  across all platforms, including PC.

1.) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (360, PS3, Wii, PC) Activision Blizzard
2.) Just Dance 3 (Wii, 360, PS3) Ubisoft
3.) Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim (360, PS3, PC) Bethesda Softworks
4.) Battlefield 3 (360, PS3, PC) Electronic Arts
5.) Madden NFL 12 (360, PS3, Wii, PSP, PS2) Electronic Arts
6.) Call of Duty: Black Ops (360, PS3, Wii, NDS, PC) Activision Blizzard
7.) Batman: Arkham City (360, PS3, PC) Warner Bros. Interactive
8.) Gears of War 3 (360) Microsoft
9.) Just Dance 2 (Wii)  Ubisoft
10.) Assassin's Creed: Revelations (360, PS3, PC) Ubisoft

Microsoft's Xbox 360 Becomes The Best-Selling Console Of 2011

Microsoft's Xbox 360 came out on top of the console war last year to become the best-selling platform of 2011. The console itself has been the best-selling console for 12 straight months in a row. According to the NPD Analysis group, the Xbox 360 captured 49% of consumer retail spending, accounting for $6.7 billion ($2.1 billion on consoles and $4.6 billion on games and accessories) in sales in the U.S. Microsoft's success comes down to more than 66 million Xbox 360 consoles sold and more than 18 million Kinect sensors sold, not to mention the fact that Xbox Live now has almost 40 million members.

What's really surprising about the NPD Analysis isn't that the Xbox came out on top, but that the Wii and PS3 were apparently "neck and neck" in second place for the year. Sony's PlayStation 3 did increase its unit sales year over year, but all of the other platforms declined in unit sales versus 2010.

LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes Is Coming This Summer

We all knew that this would be official before long. Too much seemingly hard evidence has surfaced pointing to a second LEGO Batman game for it not to be a Thing. And Warner Interactive has now confirmed it. LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is coming to a gaming platform near you this summer, a press release reveals. That means: Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, Windows PC, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita. No WonderSwan though. Sorry all.

The DC Super Heroes subtitle means that you're seeing more than just familiar faces from TT Games' previous Batman release. Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Lex Luthor are all confirmed. Who else would you like to see? I'm casting my vote now for the Wonder Twins.

Batman: Arkham City

All the awards shows and fan polls in the world can tell you one thing, but video game rental service GameFly offers what is perhaps one of the best barometers for what actual people were actually playing over the course of a given year. Today the company releases its top 10 GameQ lists for 2011, with the rankings based on how frequently each title appeared in users' "I want to rent this next" lineup.

The top-requested game across all platforms is WB Games' Batman: Arkham City, followed by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Dead Island in the two and three spots, respectively. Skyrim, G4's own Game of the Year, is ranked seventh, likely because anyone who wanted it recognized the timesink involved and just bought the thing. Arkham is also the top game on the Xbox 360 list, but it's number two on the PlayStation 3 list, behind Uncharted 3 (of course).

Hit the jump for the full platform-by-platform breakdown, also including GameQ rankings for the Wii, 3DS and DS platforms.

So I can see that Arkham City's obnoxious online pass for offline content really paid off for them.

(Disclaimer: I loved Arkham City and bought it new, but the whole Catwoman set-up is asinine.)

We've seen plenty of people using Microsoft's Kinect to accomplish impressive feats, and today's offering is no different. Youtube user Taylorveltrop has managed to program his Kinect, in conjunction with a Wii remote, to control and navigate a NAO robot. While I think this is really the first progress we've made toward controlling Gundams, this genius used it to brush his cat. Also commendable.



What do you think about controlling robots via the Kinect sensor? What types of things would you make the robot do?

Before you know it there will be Robot Cashiers.

We did it! We survived the onslaught of games 2011 threw at us just in time to take on the bounty of titles 2012 has in store. The Feedback panel has been aching to dish about their most anticipated games of the new year.

This week on Feedback, we welcomed Insomniac's senior writer, TJ Fixman. He's the writer behind Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One and Insomniac's next title Overstrike. Representing Team G4 we have Blair Herter, Morgan Webb, and Nikole Zivalich (she's my favorite, but I might be biased).

I agree with the Wii suckage that's going on at the moment, but the way they talk they make it sound like its a good thing that you can cookie cut a game across all platforms. Having 3 companies make consoles that are identical in functionality doesn't sound that appealing. Xbox and PS are enough.

Epic Mickey Screenshots, Details Revealed

A Disney newsletter revealed Disney Epic Mickey 2 is on its way. The newsletter was quickly edited to remove any info about Mickey's next adventure. Stich Kingdom caught a glimpse of the newsletter before these changes occurred, revealing that  Epic Mickey 2 is set for a Christmas 2012 launch for all the major consoles: Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360. It even detailed their plans to include split screen co-op in Epic Mickey 2. Player one would to the role of Mickey, while player 2 would be Oswald the rabbit.

I did love Epic Mickey overall, it's one of those games that I can get into the world so well in. Even the bad camera didn't seem to hurt my desire to play it. My biggest complaint had to do with the lack of dialog. This isn't Zelda where they seem to want to keep it text to help it's feel, this is a game based on the first cartoon that did talk. Again, not a deal breaker, but I hope that since it's coming to the Wii (no Wii U?) there not going to try the lack of space on the disc excuse...

On this episode of Feedback the team dissected 2011. Blair " The Boss" Herter, Donell "Donny Diablo" Tucker, Stephen "Money Money Money" Johnson and Rob "Indie I Love You" Manuell talk about all of the highs and lows in gaming. I don't think I can warn you enough, this episode might have too much manly man content.

Holiday Gift Guide 2011: Non-Game Gifts for Gamers

It's nearing the end of 2011, a deeply craptastic 12 months. It was a bad year for the world economy. And for movies.  And for almost everything else on earth, but while Western civilization may be crumbling around us, know hope: 2011 was definitely a great year for one thing: Video games! And the peak part of this peak year was the 2011 holiday season.

It’s not often that gamers have nothing to complain about, and this holiday season is no exception. However, this time around, the complaints aren’t about bad games or exploitative publishing firms. Instead gamers are complaining that there are just too damn many good games out there. Or that there aren’t enough hours in the day to play them. Or that they have to work during prime Skyrim hours. Either way, I’m nearly positive that this year’s holiday season will go down as one of the greatest few months in video game history.
