NBA Elite '11

[T Rick]

Am i the only one on this board even slightly excited by the prospect of EA finally getting their shit together with a basketball game? The trailors & previews are looking pretty impressive.. I can't wait!

It looks like they took a massive step backwards from Live 10 IMO. So far 2K11 is definitely the one I'm buying.

Check out the basketball board for 2k11 thread, drops faeces on EA's efforts from a great height.

I've been a bit disappointed with what i have seen from this game. I really wanted this game to do well as I have been buying the Live series all the way but this year I am seriously considering buying 2k11. But I will wait until the demo comes out.

 

[hayes]

You can't watch two guys who look like they've never even played a basketball game before and judge it on that. They improved a lot last year but there's still so many things that annoy me about the game so I'll be switching to 2k this year.

2K all the way, converted last year and won't be looking back

 

[melbournemartin]

Despite the improvements, 2k will probably still be better. Good for some competition though as you want to keep 2k honest.

I'm interested in it as it will come will a download code for NBA Jam (and I don't have a Wii). I'm not sure if I want to buy Elite just for a downloadable game though.

 

[Deledio2Conca]

Good commentary team...but that's about the only thing it has over 2k IMO.

 

[triplejdude]

2K has MJ.

Nuff said.

 

[PP34]

The animations and that new physics shit sucks but it might improve when it releases but atm it looks horrible imo

Found some more gameplay. This time from broadcast view:

Elite looks like EA has finally overtaken 2K, graphics look incredible and 2K havn't improved on anything except for bringing Jordan into the game

Uhhhhhhh are you serious? What about Gameplay, My Player mode being completely revamped, amazing new presentation that includes TNT, a Half Time Show, and so much more.

I don't care if NBA 2k11 hasn't improved much in terms of gameplay because it was still about two solar systems ahead of Live/Elite.

Leigh Brown may have improved a lot this year, would be one of the most improved players. Doesn't mean people are going to pick him ahead of Judd, who hasn't matched his brownlow year.

The only thing Elite has over 2K, is the download code for NBA JAM!

Other than that, 2K11 trumps all!

That is a pretty big thing though.

judging from the demo the gameplay hasn't changed at all except maybe plays are run how they're meant to run..

I rate it, but others might not

2K has MJ.

Nuff said.

Yup, '96 Bulls. WOW! Plus all the other greatest teams in NBA history.

2K is so far ahead it's not funny, this just pushes it way over the edge.

 

[eld246]

I switched to 2k last year and really loved it, I found Association very realistic but the bugs were frustrating. I think I'll be hiring both games and trying them out first. My player is awesome in 2k too though.

You really need to look at the videos being posted by this guy: MrOperationSports

Look at the 'Ten Teams in Ten Days' videos. Look at the depth of the playcalling. Look at the dynamic adjustments made by the AI to lead an open player into an advantageous position, or adjustments of Defence. Look at the revamped AI defence altogether.

Elite doesn't come close...

 

[Byron_Clanger]

2k all the way, why would you want to pass up a chance to play as MJ?
