I wish they would release an updated retro version, like the 2001 PS1 game. Just with more modern graphics.
It was just easier to pick up and play. The last EA NHL game I bought was from 2 years ago, and by the time I learned how to play properly, I was tired of it. It seemed like a chore. It just seems like adding more complexity takes away from the fun.
And yeah, I'll admit that part of that is getting older.
