Re: CONFIRMED: NBA Elite 11 Delayed until 2011

We need to hope for Elite 12 to be just as good as NBA 2K12, as it's always a good thing for the market to have as many good basketball games as possible. I do wish we could still choose between two NBA sims, two College basketball sims, and two streetball titles (EA's NBA Street and Midway's NBA Ballers). In fact, I REALLY miss being able to play College basketball and streetball. Playing nothing but one NBA game all season is going to get boring, even with the amount of features it offers.

I never realized it before.. because at first, it seemed like news by itself

but once I started hearing reports of how NBA2K11 was trending non-stop for a week on twitter.. that alone told me the story of why EA did this

Twitter is so powerful right now because it gives you the pulse of the world.. it's hard enough to trend hourly, daily... but to trend for an entire week means *EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD* is talking about it

110% the heads at EA are as technologically connected as anyone and they saw this, they saw this absolute avalanche going on for 2k sports and NBA2K11 that they did the unthinkable, "Delay Elite 11" a week before it's street date

something unheard of

why? the power of trending/twitter.. specifically, the fact that a video game of all things was trending, something that is EXTREMELY RARE...

Bottom Line: NBA2K11 killed Elite 11
not really, its because as much as everyone hates to admit it, but game reviews mean a whole lot and have a whole lot of influence.

if this game came out, it would have gotten a 5 or 6

I just played the Version of NBA Elite 11 that was going to be released to the public and it's a good thing they delayed it. The control over the players feels like crap compared to 2k11, the mid air collisions lead to some very strange animations. Graphics on the cut scenes were pretty good, along with the crowd but the overall feel of the game that was to be released was overall bad. They really need to cancel the game and wait until 2012 because I am not sure they can fix this before the NBA season is pretty much over.

Nice to see EA not ship a broke game. I wish they would do the same for some of their other games. I'm looking at you Madden and NCAA Football teams.

NCAA 11 is far from broken.
