World Wars – Search Engine Results

I’ve noticed something a bit funny over the last couple months.  It is for the search phrase “world wars” (not included in quotes).  If you search that phrase on Google, the top result is not the World Wars.  Instead, the top result is the game called “World Wars” on addictinggames.com.  If you search on Yahoo, it is the same result.  However, on MSN, the top result is a wikipedia article about the World Wars, and the game doesn’t appear until the 3rd result. 

Either addictinggames has some sweet SEO going, or Google/Yahoo have a pretty major search engine result messed up.  I just thought it was pretty funny for something as popular as the World War’s.
