NBA Elite 11 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3, 360)

[TreyIM2]

The more I play it, the more I like it, even the way the game seems stripped down and lacks in many aspects. The feel of the controls is just so wonderful. It's overpowering, to me. Not to bring up 2K but it still lacks big time in the control department. Wish I could combine the 2 to make the game I always dreamed up because they both have all the elements but not one does everything right.

If it shows that they actually went in the wrong direction when the sales figures first hit, go hard on the PS3. At that point it would be a what have they got to lose scenario. To me, it looks like they've really tapped out the engine's resources without the extra disc space. Not to mention they could REALLY go hard like how the guys who dev The Show do. The PS3 has some real nice tricks up it's sleeve, as well. EA could make up lost dollars with even greater sales that way when word of mouth of how great a game they put together on the 3....but then again, they'd need a couple years of dev time to go hard on an Elite 13...maybe. Just a thought but I know how many of you will take that the wrong way...

Its not disc memory that they are having a problem with its RAM and both platforms are pretty equal in that regard.

LOVE how when u Eurostep u still have to shoot the ball manually. Otherwise it results in a travel if u forget to shoot, which I have since I'm so used to the CPU completing the animation and shot for me. Nice touch.

Honestly man, I won't let others opinions effect the game for me. I'm having fun with this demo. I love the amount of control that I have on the court. I literally have the freedom to do the moves I want when I WANT. I'm loving the fact I can call for a pick and roll, do a hop step and finish with a switch lay-up. Awesome awesome awesome. Great year of basketball for me. Both 2K11 and Elite will be purchases.

I'm downloading now, it can't be as bad as people are saying it is. No offense bigball, but dont dog the developers, there here on there own time, and we appreciate them. Just be constructive with your criticism.
