Play NHL 10. Beat the Wilderness. Win NHL 11

by nathaneide on Aug 24, 2010 8:29 AM CDT

Last week we, and many SBN hockey blogs, were contacted by a company called Rivalspot. Rivalspot conducts online video game tournaments. They have asked if we would be interested in a Hockey Wilderness NHL 10 tournament as part of a greater SBN tournament.

This tournament is free, and the winner receives a copy of NHL 11. But yes, Rivalspot does also have paid tournaments in which you can win cash.

So what do we need from you?

Click the above image to register even though we don't have a tournament yet. This will let us know how many people are interested.
Post in the comments what system you prefer for the tournament: Xbox 360 or PS3
Post when would be good for you to play. Not "this Wednesday at 7pm" be more flexible: something like "weeknights" or "weekend afternoons", etc.
Feel free to give us feedback if you hate promotions and getting free copies of new video games.

So yeah, I'm not playing, because I don't have either system, but I would think something like this would be of interest to many of you. Let me know!

I'm interested

But time constraints are always the issue.

haha...

I would have to play on the ps3, but if I won I’d prefer to get the game for xbox. Probably not an option though.

I bet they would do that. Guessing they don’t care which version they give away.

Next week....?

Any time frame for when you would be starting the tournament? I could play on XBOX360 next week during the days/evening. Gamertag = Minnesotarage (send a friend invite even if you want to talk trash and play anyway :)

HUT

Would Hockey Wildnerness possibly be interested in starting a new community league for the new game mode “Hockey Ultimate Team”?

Played the demo and it seems pretty cool. I would definetely be interested in joining a league once the game comes out on Sept. 7th

Let’s see… I would play except that:

1. Neither of those systems in my house
2. I suck at video games
3. I don’t think I can shut Dora off long enough to play without my kid feeling as though she was wronged.
