Just letting you guys know, that around the Christmas holidays, or maybe in January, a full version of Jam will be available on psn and live, you guys dont have to go buy elite.

If this eventually hits XBLA, I will be all over this. Otherwise, skip it for me.

Wow, I love how they have Sig jump shots.

That is speculation. Maybe you can get a deal on Elite in January.

I still don't know why there isn't a full version packed in with Elite.

NBA Jam these days is nothing more than a cheat code, game mode in a game. It's not worthy as game on it's own.

I think what is packed in Elite is a game within a game, as its basically upgraded Jam with current rosters.

The "Remix Tour" is a bunch of new modes and stuff going above and beyond the basic pick up and play of Jam. I think it adds enough body to warrant a full game, especially considering the depth of sports games on the Wii.

By the way in regards to NBA Jam, there no doubt in my mind that the game will be release later this year after Elite release. I come to this inclusion b/c EA, like most companies do not want their products competing with each other for sales. even though are somewhat different kinds of basketball. Although the game is included with elite, you only will be able to play 3 of its many modes. So the full game itself is available. And finally, releasing it at a later date allows EA corner the market for those looking for a change of pace from the current games. So those posters that constantly say you can only get Jam by buying Elite, are in my opinion a little misleading.

This game looks pretty funny especially because of the cartoonish look. At the same time though it looks cool and fun to play. I probably won't buy it though because I'll be too busy with NBA 2K11. I might try a demo though.
