Flashback Friday Episode 21: NHLPA 93
By today's standards, "NHLPA 93" is a joke, with ugly sprites, barebones gameplay and no player customization options.
20 years ago however, it was a hockey fan's dream come true. For hardcore aficionados of the sport and avid gamers, it's still a classic that has stood the test of time.
The game that made the landmark "NHL 94" possible, "NHLPA 93" featured real NHL teams, rosters and player ratings, a huge improvement over the solid playing, but vanilla options in "NHL Hockey." The ability to edit lines and save them in the game was also a landmark achievement at the time. While the playoff options aren't much different than those in its predecessor, the stat tracking abilities made it possible to see, for the first time, how players performed on the ice and organize it elegantly to fuel more gameplay. In short, it put a face on what before was just brainless and fun. "NHLPA 93" was the first hockey game with a truly recognizable soul.
