But again, my bad... Like I said it's your opinion and everyone's opinion so I should respect it. Peace!

The part that I'm blown away by is that the animations seem to have taken a MASSIVE leap backwards. Live has never had solid animations, but somehow they just got worse. It seemed everything was in warp speed. Plus the ball/rim/net interactions are still awkward as hell. I'm looking forward to the demo to see how everything feels when actually playing, but it sure isn't pretty to watch.

Everything about Elite compare to 2K11 is absolutely old and there is nothing new and "different" about it at all... c'mon please open your eyes... please... just play NBA 2K10 for crying out loud and look at the new, cool, amazing and different stuff that NBA 2K11 has... please be real man... i was a EA fanboy before but 2K changed it... true...

You are overlooking one big difference and that is the controls...doesn't that count for something when it comes to video games? Btw I played the other game for the last 5-6 years until last year I picked up both games so stop with the fanboy stuff...it's called having an opinion on what is important for my enjoyment of a game...

there was 60% less cheesers online you actually miss shots in live 1o there is defense in live more realistic fg % numbers not 70% in the other game way less points in the paint and many other things

lol, because people must be dumb and never used youtube before, come on everyone watched the game on 720 it does not help.

The passing is still way off too. The passing logic and animations are just horrible. By viewing all these vids, it is clear the defense will be at a major disadvantage user vs user.

I'll start off by saying that this is a much better showing of this game than the initial up and down 5 on 5 action that we were first exposed to. The play calling is still there, and it still looks good; unfortunately, there's not much else that I can boast about because the action that I seen in this video didn't look close to what I've grown accustom to seeing from the NBA each time I watch a game.

Everything from the dull textures of the players, to the copy and paste unenthusiastic commentary, to the way the players were interacting and performing moves.... That just wasn't the NBA basketball that I know or have known over the years (not close IMO). The lack of individuality, and player differentiation really stood out to me in this video as everyone literally looked the same to me. I seriously can't even recall seeing Amare Stoudemire out there because he along with everybody else, didn't stand out in this video (looked like generics with different numbers on their jerseys), and it looked like the users were just going through the motions of trying to play a realistic brand of basketball.

The on-ball defense also didn't look too good as the defenders stayed in their defensive stance and didn't react much to the offensive player's input on the triggers. They just went sliding along unaffected. Speaking of sliding, this could become really problematic to the court spacing with everyone being able to slide and turn on a dime without fear of being out of position knowing that the footplanting isn't up to par...

There's more problems that I have after seeing this video, but I'll just leave it alone because I've done more than enough critiquing. I will say this, there's no way I would have "sacrificed" all of the things that needed to be worked on and built upon, things that people have been asking for for years now from this series, just for the sake of "complete control", and "real time physics" (this aspect of the game I've yet to see shine through in any capacity.) Oh well, it was their decision, and they prioritized the way they did based on what they thought would best suit this game. I'll still play the demo to get the "feel" that they continuously talk about, but the action, and what I'm seeing on the court is speaking very loudly to me at this point & time.
