- Who cares if it feels like real hockey. The game (NHLPA 93) is funner than
- all hell. "Checking the snot" outta people is very fun, especially if that
- person is a friend ;-). In NHLPA I have found that getting into fights IS
- much more difficult than in the first NHL Hockey, so I am not so sure what
- you are talking about? I get into about 1 fight every 2-3 games which seems
- pretty realistic. The computer does suck, REAL BAD. But if you play a lously
- team against Chicago it can be very challenging. IMHO where NHLPA '93 really
- shines is when you play in the 2-player mode. The game is just extremly fun
- to play. The smooth graphics, quick and responsive controls and the good
- sounds just make this game my favorite 2-player game of all time. Much
- better than Wayne Grezky Hockey I for the Mac (which is just plain bad!)
