EA Developing 3 on 3 NHL Arcade

IGN has the scoop. Anyone interested?

Quote:
"Electronic Arts is poised to officially announce tomorrow that 3 on 3 NHL Arcade, an all-new downloadable hockey experience, is currently under development at EA Canada by the same team that produced NHL 09 and will be available on Xbox LIVE and the Playstation Network in February of 2009. 3 on 3 NHL Arcade promises to provide a lightning-paced, no rules hockey experience that gamers of all ages and ability levels can enjoy, and will be priced at 800 MS Points and $9.99 respectively.

With no rules to hinder the action, 3 on 3 NHL Arcade will allow gamers to enjoy the sport without the having to worry about adhering to icing, checking and other cumbersome regulations. And, the all-new physics engine that was introduced in NHL 09 is back, but with one small adjustment – now each hit is specifically designed to be absolutely huge. Now gamers will be able to hit the opposition with such bone-crushing checks that his victim will literally be blasted clear over the boards and off the rink."
Platform: PS3 / Xbox 360

I like it. I love NHL 09, and this may be a nice "pick up and play" game to throw on once in a while.

Only $10, hockey, sound pretty good.

I don't follow hockey, but for 10, it seems like a winner. We'll see.

Could be fun. Avatar support would be cool.

So they discontinued NBA Street in favor of NHL Street? Is there really a bigger market for arcade hockey?

I dont think anything is going to touch Wayne Gretzky's 3D hockey on the N64 though...
