3 on 3 NHL® Arcade Preview(XBOX360)

With fast paced action, crushing hits and loads of room to experiment, 3 on 3 NHL Arcade will have gamers from all walks of life excited about hockey.

There are no rules to hinder the action so you can deliver devastating checks that send your opponent over the boards and watch as he has to skate back onto the ice.  You can even check the goalie when he comes out of his crease to play the puck. 

Exaggerated player-looks take center stage with 40 of the top NHL stars, representing every team, skating around the miniature rink.  Game-changing power-ups fall onto the ice throughout each session, serious is not the name of this game. Fly down the ice with a super-speed skater and beat a giant sprawling goalie with a trick move for that highlight reel finish.

With two control schemes to choose from, players can pick between button controls that allow gamers of all skill levels to pass, shoot, hit and break out the all-new trick moves with ease, or the more advanced Skill Stick controls from NHL 09.

3 on 3 NHL Arcade also brings the online experience players have come to expect from EA SPORTS. In addition to standard ranked matches, 3 on 3 NHL Arcade allows the ability for three players on one console to play three other players on another console anywhere in the world.
