New NHL game on XBLA tomorrow

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).
