Ea Canceled Elite. They say its delayed, but i dont think they will release it. Almost makes no sense.

I was interested in Elite but they pushed it back to March. If EA delays a sports game like that it has to be majorly ****ed up.

That was my thought. It makes no sense to put it out that far in to basketball season.

What was the point of NBA Elite exactly?

This was the whole focus EA had going into the 2011 game for NBA. 2010 didnt sell well, but Mike Wang had the game getting positive reviews and the sim gamers were liking it. Well, due to the game not selling well. They scrapped it and the Developer MIke Wang said i am not with this and called 2K and said, can i get my old job back, these dudes are ****ing up. Well, 2K said sure because they liked the dude.

So EA basically said. Since we cant take 2K's basketball fans, we will try to go in a new direction (hired the main boss of the NHL series) and said we can just tap into our Fifa and NHL fans and make the game more casual. Well, the game was really bad and not even ready for that. So the Suits said we have to pull this game, it will get terribly killed by the reviewers and fans. So they delayed it.

NBA Live used to be fun, havent played a ps3 version of it....saw the commercial for 2k with MJ got me interested. Never had an interest in 2k games really but this one looks intriguing

Oz, do yourself a favor and get this game. The 2k series is nails when it comes to NBA games.

I likely will, esp after seeing the reviews...been forever since i played an NBA game.

Nice job by EA ****ing themselves, if they actually decided to make a real effort on their Madden and NFL games they could own. This will **** them, esp with nba2k11 actually coming out on time and a must own game at that, crazy. I rely on IGN reviews, pretty sick review for this game.

I don't like NBA games due to basketball being the least simmable game on the planet but I just might get 2k11. I just sold NCAA football 11 so I might as well try 2k11 out. Can't be a bigger waste of time than NCAA football was.

And they need to remove the heat from online play.

The only recent sports games i've bought are Madden 2010 (epic fail, i played 6 games, regret buying it since, game sucks) and refuse to buy 2011. Last good football game was espn2k5 (ownage) for ps2. Bought MLB 2010 the show, a great buy and a fun baseball game, will buy it every year likely. Haven't played an NBA game since ps 1. I am excited to buy this 2k game esp hearing that EA ****ed up...the graphics looked great on elite but we all know that doesn't mean shit

Been playing it and so far its really ****in awesome. The Jordan mode is incredible as to how much detail they put into it
