MEGA Issue 1 MEGA Issue 1 Mega Drive Neil West 92% Yes. When all is said and done, NHLPA Hockey is a better game than EA Hockey. There's nothing ice-breaking or of drastic improvement on the original, but a little bit of tweaking can go a long way. The battery-backed memory can only be a good thing though why a proper league option hasn't been included, I've got no idea. It should have been top priority.
Mega Action Issue 1 Mega Action Issue 1 Mega Drive Uncredited 90% The sequel to EA Hockey, this appears as the benchmark in ice entertainment. The skill level is reduced to a degree of luck but the fight sequences seem to be a winner.
