They have but this shot stick is different then 2k

How are you so sure of that? Can you explain?

I'm sure player ratings will be involved also.. No need to worry..

He's solely talking about the user, not all the under the hood stuff. Again, in the past all that mattered from a control perspective from the user was timing the release point properly. That's it. So you'd basically time your release and hope the shot went in. Nothing the user does effects if the shot is short, long, right or left. If you missed, how the shot was off target was completely random. In theory, that's going to change in Elite. Like I mentioned earlier, think Tiger Woods. Ratings, the player's range, etc are not controlled by the user. And if you're that upset with his comment about it being luck, well he is a hockey guy after all. Probably hasn't spent much time with basketball games in his past, he made one dumb comment. I don't think it's anything to get too riled up about.

This is my perspective on the whole "skill" vs "luck" argument as well.

Of course he can sure of it. I think you'd better read Gamespot interview to understand him.

I don't understand this skill thing either. I agree with Statums comment, and in reply to Green_flash., if ratings have anything to do with it, doesn't that go against the skill needed?

The whole skill vs luck argument is pointless if ratings has anything to do with shooting, laying ups and dunks, imo.

Jumpshot is just plain ugly. I know it's early, but I need to see more. They need to stop making videos or ruff edges, it's discouraging.

Especially on a site like Gametrailers.com. That site is followed deeply of EA Sports haters and people who are fed up with them.

They need to do a better job of marketing this title and leave Live's name out of every piece of it.

All I see is EA propaganda 101. They even tried to add the Littman effect.
Wang left EA because they aren´t SIM minded....
Name change and propaganda? Hm....
