Well, I might be guilty of a little of that myself... Really, both games have their plusses, and there are some really fun features in the second, but there are things I really miss about the first one. I like the way the animals looked more real, and not so "cartoony", and that you could sell animals for profit (makes logical sense), while in ZT2, you are actually charged to adopt one out (totally illogical...). Also, I thought that ZT1 was more challenging in exhibit design;with Z2, there is no challenge at all, as everything you need is recommended specifically by the zookeeper, and the biome brush takes out all the guesswork. In fairness, my son likes the new one better, as it is easier for him; I prefer more of a challenge.
