I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

Re: I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

Amazing some of the responses here. Dude gets something that is rare and people clowning him for it. I'm sorry but it just underscores the lack of insight some people have. If you REALLY think he bought it because of gameplay you really have to be kidding me.

Let's see here. How many 30, 40, 50+ year old cars go for more money than 5 new cars put together today YET they drive like crap, get no mileage, get burned in EVERY WAY possible by new technology and are nowhere near as comfortable as today's ride. Why because they are rare and collectibles.

How many baseball cards with players who's stats have long been broken fetch more than damn near the Topps baseball card company is worth today. Why because they are rare and collectibles.

How many comic books older than dirt with art that looks like a highschooler did it. Weak as hell story lines, corny one liners that are fifty years out of date like '22 gazoo' and 'catch you later I'm eating a potata'. And only cost anywhere from a nickel to twelve cents then now worth more than some people houses. Why because they are rare and collectibles.

Hell, a stamp, A STAMP MIND YOU, once sold for OVER 2 MILLION DOLLARS. Yes a piece of paper somebody licked, smacked on an envelope and mailed off sold for over 2 MILLION BIG ONES and you guys giving him grief for paying 2 small ones for a game?

Man it doesn't seem that hard to figure out why he bought it. It's just hard to figure out why anyone would have to explain it.

Re: I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

Ummmm are you being silly or what?

I still collect basketball and football cards.....I've never collected baseball but i know 2-3 guys that have made a killin off baseball memorbilia and cards.

There are some baseball cards that would put so much money in your pockets you'd pee on yourself...........LOL!

True. Years ago I've bought some comics, sat on them for a little bit of time, and turned around and flipped them for a nice buck and I didn't even have them long enough to get into a real collector status and still made money. You do it right and you can make more money off them things than playing the stock market.

If someone wants to debate the merits of whether it will grow any value then I'm all for it but anyone who starts with "NBA 2k11 is going to be a better game...." please leave the room, this conversation is obviously WAY above your head.

Excellent pickup.. If EA doesn't release the game, or releases it under a different name I think you'll double your money easily on this one..

EA would claim copyright BS lol but yeah he should do that. And for OP, nice find! in the long run those 255$ will be worth of with.

Re: I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

Nice buy bro!

And to the people saying: "If this gets release in ____ it wont be worth anything".....yes it will! When Lil Wayne's rebirth album was suppossed to come out before X-mas last year, and it got delayed, copies on ebay old for like 200-300 bucks even tho they officially announced the new release date would be in Feb with all new songs(they lied tho lol)......same thing with Elite.

Re: I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

I won the Ebay Auction, and can now call myself, a proud owner of one of the worst, rarest games in video game history! All for the price of $255, I am one of an exclusive number of people in the world with a final copy. I cannot wait to provide all of you any info, when the game gets here in a few days! I cannot believe that I won it! Although the game may be rubbish, I can now still have the complete NBA Live collection, and will be one of a very few amount of people to have every Live ever made!

Congrats on getting the game man! Def nice to have the complete Live collection. Even if Elite 11 gets released sometime next year it will still be a different game than what you're getting, so that def is a rare item!

It'd be funny if when he opened it sand was in the box.

This is bigger than this thread. Sometimes you get irritated reading the complete idiocy of some posts by people on forums that you have to say something. Maybe people will think twice before looking like idiots before posting. I read so many posts where I ask "Damn did you even think for half a second before posting or did you want to post some 'what you think is funny' garbage to get a laugh or clap so fast your fingers damn near tripped over themselves trying to get it up first"

Re: I Did It! Elite 11 Is Mine!

congrats man. And no one has the right to say you "wasted" your money. Its your money n u got the right to spend it however which way.

Besides i'd like to hear your insight on the game- how bad it really is and what EA should be doing now to fix it. Cant really read every detail on the now defunct demo
