    Re: Who is getting Elite

    If they release a patch that fixes some of the glaring problems, and lower the price 6-8 months from now I will pick it up.

    I see some AMAZING potential for this series, but I just can't see spending $60 on a troublesome blueprint when there are other options with a lot more polish that also require a bit of bball IQ.

        Now don't get me wrong it's not what you'd want out of a game all the time but reality is to make it fun IMO you have to turn it into an uptempo basketball game this year.

        I think if you go in with the mindframe of playing it straight SIM your going to be highly upset like i was after playing the demo the 1st 2-3 games.

        Then i realized it might not play SIM but there is a chance for it to be a very good uptempo game. Just pick up play faster pace game for those looking for alternatives this year in gameplay.

        I figure of you keep guys out of the halfcourt sets as much as possible the less likely you'll see those bad animations taking place. So for me personally i'm going to turn it into a end to end fast pace game that caters to somewhat of arcade style of play this year.
        Great post. I was thinking the same thing. Sort of an NBA Jam except 5 on 5 with fouls and without 20 feet of air on dunks.

        Elite 11 is very much a case of "it is what it is." You have to play it like a little kid who just plays whatever game is in front of them and try to have fun. You have to shove every "Sim" idea you've ever had temporarily out of your head .

          I don't like either games. I'm leaning more towards NBA2K even though the game play for me is kinda rubbish. Something new is good so who knows, might end up with both. The way I see it...sports games are going down fairly quick now. I'm not into them as I used to be. The longevity is there because of franchise and online play. The fun factor is dead.

            That's my problem right now too...I'm not feeling either game so October 5th isn't such a big deal for me...

              I don't get comments like this? How are sports games going downhill? I feel like they are evolving and can/will get way better. Maybe because i have been playing Videogames since the 80's but I can see how great the other game is and how backwards elite is.

              I'm going to say no to elite. I guess when you put someone in a formula one car and max out the speed and they say "no , it is too slow" you cannot please that person at all.

                I voted no, but maybe I will buy it used once the price has dropped, I just can't see myself paying $65 for this game. I usually buy both games, this year I may not, I've been a EA fan really a big fan of Live for many many years now. But after this year I am wondered if they even have a clue???? I kinda see were there headed, but I think it will take a bunch of time and effort to get there...These are two areas I don't really trust EA anymore. But as I said, I may buy it just as a change of pace from 2k, but no way am I buying it new.
                I'm a diehard St. Louis Cardinals Fan!! Birds on the bat til I die!

                      Was planing to get get both BB-games.
                      But after experiencing Franchise Mode in Madden and BAGM in NHL 11 then to read what Association Mode will be in NBA2K11 I think it will be only 2K for me.

                      If Association Mode delivers that is.

                      A bit sad because I really enjoyed many parts of Live10.

                        I have no reason to buy a supposed new and improved version of a game that has not only removed everything great about it, but replaced them with quality that wouldn't of held up a few years ago.

                        I'll keep playing Live 10 this year.

                          Yeah, getting Elite 11. It's 'growing' on me.

                          I do have Live 10 and 2K10 and enjoyed Live 10 more. I will definitely get 2K11 also because of MJ and they put some stuff from Live 10 because of Mike Wang.

                            You do know Mike Wang is originally from 2K and he incorporated things from 2k into live 10 not vice versa right?

                              I'd also bet you haven't played the demo much...I thought it sucked at first but I'm enjoying it more and more now that I have the controls figured out...
                              even if you get the controls down, does that really change from what "see" on the court?

                                This is false.

                                Mike Wang took what was in Live 09, and cleaned it up.

                                NBA Live 10 had no 2k in it whatsoever.
