Game Description

An all-new downloadable hockey experience from EA Sports, 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. With no rules to hinder the action, gamers can 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.

Features

• Players will be able to compete against friends one-on-one online, or with up to three players on each side (three players on one console can play against three players on another console) engaging in three-on-three mayhem.
  
• Ranked and unranked online contests.
  
• Two distinct control schemes: The Skill Stick featured in the last three NHL titles is back, along with all new button controls that map everything to the face buttons for ease of play.
