After three games and watching my son play a few to me it just seems like the game doesn't have enough strengths to justify its weaknesses. The game let me advance in the block tutorial by hacking Durant. I got no ball and it was like "god job". Blocking and contesting shots has no rhyme or reason and the shooting is ridiculous. I'm playing on Allstar and I dont need to do anything special to score. Just give it to a decent shooter and shoot.

I could care less about graphics. CH 2k8 was my fave sports game this gen and its graphics are mediocre but it makes me wonder what did they get when they traded graphics for gameplay. And the animations... The animations are so bad they kill the immersion which affects the gameplay.

I'm in the camp that belives this game should not be released. If I was an exec with enough power I would pull the game. Even though there was a lot more put into ELITE and I think its a better game than Live 07 I say pull it. I can see myself having fun when I get the feel of the game down yet I can see this game hurting the brand just a much as Live 07 because most people are less open minded than me and unlike the last two years the comp really has its act together this year.
