Last night fans in Toronto and Vancouver lined up outside Future Shops to meet current and former NHL stars, got a chance to play NHL 10, and even got their hands on the first copies to go out during our Midnight Launch events.
September is one of my favourite months of the year, not only because I get a year older (or despite it, that is) but the presents I receive are usually in the form of one of my all-time favorite games, NHL 10. This year NHL 10 hits the streets next week on Tuesday the 15th and for the first time we will be hosting a couple of midnight releases at Future Shops in Toronto and Vancouver.
