Celebrate Valentine's with a threesome.

Great news for people who like American sports, hockey and/or ice - this week's Xbox Live Arcade addition is 3 on 3 NHL Arcade.

According to the press release, 3 on 3 NHL Arcade will let you "skate your way to victory" to "impress your sweetheart". Because as everyone knows, there's nothing more irresistible to women than being good at ice hockey videogames.

The game features the NHL's players, with whom you get to "tear up the ice" as you "win big with big hits". You can challenge your friends to one-on-one matches via Xbox Live. Keep score of your wins to earn "bragging rights with your opponent... And your sweetie".

3 on 3 NHL Arcade will appear on Xbox Live at 9am UK time tomorrow, priced at 800 Microsoft Points (GBP 6.80 / EUR 9.60).

I'm too bothered with getting Fedora Core 10 on my PS3 to be concerned with this.

Got it from PSN last week. Overpriced and frustrating, but it has its moments.

Just try the demo, you do not get anymore (apart from online play) for your money... good fun, but a bit of a rip off.

"I'm gonna make Wayne Gretzky's head bleed for Super Fan #99 over here!" "Look Mikey, little Wayne's legs are shaking all over the place!"

@dr_faulk :
Why the heck do you want to do that ? A 200 Eur. PC runs any Linux distro better than PS3 (better = easier; and it'll actually do something).

Look at this, OK? I want you to remember this webpage. This is the game behind the game behind the game.

edit: as well as an "ignore poster" button, there should be a "'nuff respect" button. That_Happy_Cat and afray both get a click from me.
