I can understand that you're disappointed that blogs weren't able to come out on time. That doesn't fall on me. I'm not the one writing the blogs, I just try to get the word out that we hope to get them to out by a certain time period. I apologize that we weren't able to get the first promised blog on the time period that I indicated, however the members of the development team are swamped working on NBA ELITE 11 and this was explained to all of you. They're not going to drop working on the game so they can get you a blog. Would you rather that the game be as polished as possible or have a blog out and be left with an inferior game?

I don't get where you come out and say that I'm out destroying the work of the development team. My job is to get the information out to all of you. I don't see how having NBA JAM packaged with ELITE isn't big news. If it wasn't do you think sites like IGN, Pasta Padre, Gamespot and other gaming outlets would pick up the news if it wasn't big? I'm not out here to damage work for anyone, all I'm trying to do is let you all know when we can get stuff out to you and if there's any pertinent news then I will be sure to let you all know about it.

My opinion has 0 relevance, all I am saying is to protect Elite credibility, and yourself for having sensible people destroying you, when you are not able to present something you promised, because today it is a simple news/blog, but between 06 to 09, promises about the game were made, and we all know what the community thinks about them.... (this is your main target)

You can´t make promises about blogs on specific dates, WHY??? Because the release date of those blogs don´t depend on you

The team is busy working on the game, you said it, rEAnimator said it, we believe that since the 1st post of y´all, this is one of the reasons to not show unfinished news about features of the game, there is no rush to put out information, every time I read things you said, I almost feel like you have to have something for us, you don´t.

I understand that your work is hard, but you can´t say that selling Elite with Jam is the BIG NEWS about Elite, it is not, it has 0 influence on Elites value as a game

You mentioned some sites, it doesn´t need to be BIG news to be on those sites and you know that...

What Elite has to do it to regain the confidence of the consumer, and it will only be done if the devs keep working as they are, and the communication between them (you) and me (us/consumer) is as true as possible.

Believe me, I am not disapointed, not today, not when I saw the blog, I am as hyped as possible, I will keep myself informed, no matter when the information comes out, what you have to understand is that people like me, are the minority, people want emidiate pleasure, and if you promise big news about THE game, you can´t say that giving the opurtunity to have THE game plus a nice FUN game is BIG, because the majority of the basketball people, are still looking at this game with doubts about it´s true value, so what you have to do, is to sell the game with TRUE information prooving it´s improvement, even if those news come 1 day before the demo

Once again, nothing against you, I am not disappointed, but I truly believe that this franchise is back, but I still believe that I am the minority, and promising information, when that information doesn´t depend on you, it is risky, and we all know, that to lose credibility you only need 1 error, and I don´t want that to happen to you, and most importantly the Live/Elite franchise (again)

(I am not trying to teach you how to do your job, I hope you understand were I come from)

Anyhow I for one am thankful that blackflash83 is taking the time to keep us informed about the game. It seems like they're short on time and I was happy with the news we got today being a big nba jam fan.

One question. Will there be an Nba Jam demo also?

why would there be a demo if you get the game free for now? If you dont think the game will be out later, then i dont know where you been at for the past 15 years. This is what EA does. There is nothing wrong with it, its just smart business. You know what? when they put it out for download via xbox live, i am going to be one of the first to buy it, but until then, i can hold off.

This is the best news ever! I love NBA Live10 and was very much looking forward to this new way of playing in Elite, and with NBA Jams added as a free game that's just a win win situation for me.

EA had to do something marketing wise to compete with the competition....isn't competition nice?

And for the 2k fans trolling in here, please leave! I really feel all of you should be banned. You guys sound so mad.

This is a game changer....they needed to do something to counter act the hysteria of anticipation for the other game, and this 2 for one package more than hits the spot. Again, simply a game changer in the battle for bball market share and supremacy.

^ when it comes to me it changes nothing..as the poster above ranted it has nothing to do with Elite's value and I agree

Stop quoting the posts. Report them.

This is getting extremely tiring.

If it eventually comes out as a download on the PSN network I may get it.

NBA Jam bundled - is MASSIVE, GIGANTIC, ENORMOUS....news

NBA Jam was one of the funnest arcade sports game experiences of the last century. To see it making a come back, in a ridiculously cool fashion is one thing, TO GET IT FREE IS MIND BOGGLING.

Cool down, chill out and don't call out the messenger, he's just doing his job and in the best way he sees fit.

I am ecstatic about this news, two NBA games for the price of 1!!!

And they're going to be amazing NBA games

Of the likes...never witnessed before!!

This is the first year I own 3 NBA games. Anyone else?

**rev** · 08-03-2010, 08:26 PM

Im sorry, but EA never releases anything with out a catch. Im sure they will offer Jam in marketplace and psn a couple months after Elite is released. I'll just go rent this at blockbuster and get the code. Same thing i done with NCAA.

Re: NBA Elite 11 to Include NBA Jam, Not Available on Marketplace or PSN (360, PS3)

Extremely nice move by EA. It reminds me of the year Visual Concepts released its NBA and NFL games for, what, $20? I think that did a lot to pull gamers from EA. Could this be on that scale?

**Earl1963** · 08-03-2010, 08:49 PM

Re: NBA Elite 11 to Include NBA Jam, Not Available on Marketplace or PSN (360, PS3)

How big is this NBA Jam file? I need to know since my 80 gig ps3 has a lot more available space than my 20 gig 360

True, that was a good move and that was the only reason I got NFL 2k, I convinced my mom to get it cause it was only 20 dollars lol. It ended up being a great purchase.

I think this could be on that scale because I don't think any casual gamers are expecting much from EA basketball this year, so hopefully this game is good enough to change minds, mine included. Can't wait for the demo

**a walrus** · 08-03-2010, 09:16 PM

To me this means that the game will be sub-par and the excuse for buying it will be ...It came with a code to download NBA Jam. From a sales / marketing standpoint it makes sense , from a development / progresssion / basketball SIM its a huge huge sign/clue. Whoever types Peace at the end of their piece better be wearing a cross colors hoddie & backwards overalls with one strap down..... please.
