ZTGD Review: 3 on 3 NHL Arcade

Zero Tolerance of ZTGD writes: Digital download games are a breeding ground for bite-sized entertainment at a value price. Developers have become accustomed to the way the infrastructure works and have tried to release games accordingly. Taking beloved sports franchises and dumbing them down for the masses has always been a touchy subject, because a lot of gamers cannot find the justification for paying full price for a game that offers half of what its big brother does. 3 on 3 NHL Arcade takes an entirely different approach offering minimal options in a game that focuses on one thing and one thing only; quick spurts of fun. What we get is a package that truly lives up to the idea of entertainment in smaller portions, but the price still feels a bit too steep for what is here.

Pros
+ Fluid controls
+ Online is smooth
+ Can be lots of fun

Cons
- Severe lack of modes
- No stat tracking
- Feels more like a $5 title

gah.... lack of modes... its 3 on 3 hockey with some spice thrown in.. what more modes do you need woman???? you want a shoot out mode or something?? I wonder what NBA Jam would score in this day in age.. that game was a god damn 10 if I ever saw one... only one mode... pure fun. Sheesh. At least in NBA Jam we got to see how much points we got... i guess thats enough stats...haha.. just razzing ya.

Trust me I made that same argument when people told me it sucked. I had a lot of fun with this game, but you know how the masses are :)

I think this game is great fun as well. it's just so seamless. checking others throughout the course of the game never gets old. not to mention, the online play (servers) are very consistent. great game!

This guy reviewed a $10 DLable game like it was a $60 disc game. I just think these editorial reviews are all BS and archaic.

Digital Delivery: 3-on-3 NHL Arcade & OlliOlli

"Sports! Getting outdoors, getting physical, competing for glory… ahh, sounds great, right? But what if it’s too hot? Or too cold? Or the weather is bad?

Sports are great fun, and great fun to watch, but what do you do when mother nature doesn’t cooperate? That’s where video games come into play, and this week on the Digital Delivery, we’re talking about sports games on PSN!

Regardless of the time of year or what season of sports are currently active, there are lots of options open for you to play sports games on PSN, and replayability is always high with games like this. So, let’s take a look at a pair of games, one of which you can get now, and one of which is coming soon." - Steve Perry

September 2012 PSN Top Sellers: The Walking Dead Crawls Back To the Top

Posted by Morgan Haro // Community Manager, PlayStation Digital Platforms -

Why, hello again The Walking Dead. We seem to see you top these charts every time one of your episodes releases — in this case Episode 3: Long Road Ahead.
Maybe it’s your emphasis on great characters and story telling? Or maybe it’s the crazy outcomes of your in-game choices and how they affect later episodes. Either way, congratulations once again on Episode 3: Long Road Ahead and its dominance of the charts in September! Other respectable debuts include Jet Set Radio, Borderlands 2, and Tokyo Jungle.
