CONFIRMED: NBA Elite 11 Delayed until 2011

[Cripterion]

Yup, they should scrap Elite 11.

They can then build a better Live 12 with more animations, give a different body build for players, try to make each player feel individual, signature moves & shots, put more commentary (I know, didn't get to hear the full commentary), just go all out!

Wow, that's crazy. Everyone seems to think the game was garbage anyway.

Wal Mart will not be shipping out any copies for now as the game is delayed. I will have to look into your pre-order if it means it will transfer over to next year. When I get that info I will let you know.

You guys have any idea how much money they are losing delaying this game? So either he was lying or his opinion of what a good basketball game is completely off. Something is really wrong if the Head of EA has to come out and basically issue an apology and delay the game. There is no way you can tell me a game that is so bad it needs to be delayed a week before release is good enough to come here and endorse. Sorry but somebody is wrong here.

Trust me, I hear ya. I'm as skeptical as the next guy.I just think he may be a little biased because he worked on the game. I really believe he thought it was a good game.

I applaud EA for making this move. It takes a lot of stones to delay a game 2 weeks before it is set to hit stores. The game clearly wasn't ready for primetime (no offense to the developers, I know you guys worked hard but rebuilding a game takes time).

I think the extra time will help refine the controls, perhaps sharpen up the graphics and fix other issues. And, if EA decides to just morph Elite 11 into Elite 12, I'd have no problem with that, either.

Smart move to update Live 10 as well.

So what happens if Elite 12 gets the same criticism as Elite 11?

Bottom line, Peter Moore is the president of EA Sports, what he says goes.
