Wintery XBLA titles Polar Panic and NHL Arcade half-price this week
13
Though they're not the two best-received titles on the Xbox Live Arcade platform, Polar Panic and 3-on-3 NHL Arcade seem like appropriate ways to ring in the new, blustery season. Appropriately enough, their prices have been cut in half for the current XBLM Deal of the Week.

I wonder if 3-on-3 NHL is any good. I've got a pile of XBLA games, so even spending 200 points now has to be on something that I'll actually play.

How is NHL Arcade? :)

I liked both of these games. Both these games had problems but are still fun.
Polar Panic - controls were kinda bad for the action levels. The puzzle levels got insanely hard in the end.
3 on 3 NHL - This game is a blast but you can basically get everything you want out of the game's demo. There are too many ways to break the game but still a lot of fun.

I can confirm this. Shows up on the dash DoTW section and the price has been reduced.

NHL Arcade is tons of fun. It's basically like a cartoon version of EA's usual NHL franchise, with things like powerups, the ability to check a player over the boards, and of course no penalties.

Not to step on any toes but I thought NHL Hitz was the NFL Blitz of hockey..

i remember reading somewhere that EA was going to pull the online play on the NHL 3 on 3, makes me wonder why they would put it on sale for so cheap.

NHL Arcade was a whole lot of fun. It's also a pretty easily attainable 200 GS.

200 points for NHL Arcade? How can you even consider not buying it for that price if you're a hockey fan. It is good, simple fun. Don't expect something serious, this is even less serious than NBA Jam, but it is so fun. I bought it day one and still pick it up once in a while. A ton of fun with friends too!
