Sorry thought you gave the demo a 9 out of 10. My bad.

Man - this is the most I've ever posted in such a short time. Hope this is not what they call trolling around here .. I was really hoping .. and this is coming from a 2k players .. that live had been showing some bs screens and game vids ... and that the demo was just going to be on some completely NEXT **** .. that type marketing move would've mess around had y'all on CNN tomorrow .. I'm hurtin for these cats right now man.

Must be hard as hellll to make these games tho man .. cause I know someone at EA .. at some point had to say ..eff 2k, eff the cost .. let's put those youngsters in their place. That's probably not going to happen from the consistnecies we've seen in the last few years .. damn. damn. damn.

When I saw ESPN .. ESPN !! .. bigging up 2K .. and the fact that the Czar is listed as the owner of this forum (correct me if I'm wrong) .. doing 2k vids ... it started looking pretty bad.

Man - I say, take a year off .. dump some resources in other games .. come back and give us all something to argue about ... Wooow Corporate America ...Woow. I'll be be getting Fifa 11 though ...so y'all still got me .. I'll just be with the other chic

I used to think NBA Inside the Life had bad graphics for a new generation system, NBA Elite wins that but this is only the demo. - A good shot release will be money for the majority of the time. When the ball actually swishes, it seems like NBA Live 99 type of swishes. This game just feels like a completely new game, well probably because it is. The control system in itself is going to be frustrating for those who have yet to try it out. It certainly already has for me. The passing alone will make you hate this game, if you're not coming in with an open-mind. If you're coming in and thinking this might play similar to Live/2K, it's not because if you do the controls will completely throw you off. This game is going to take a while for me to get used too. For those who don't have the patience to learn a completely new control scheme and expect great graphics, then NBA Elite isn't for you.

yep cool intro with Kevin Durant, but it only makes for a bitter feeling when you actually get to the gameplay portion.

See thats the thing, I do care how Chris Paul plays. I want him to play as lifelike as possible. And here the lyes the reason why there are 2 NBA games on the market. And also the reason why I'll be buying both. Both games are offering something that the other game can't. I've already mentioned that Elite has more than a few flaws. However, it has things going for it. I said individuality is not one of its strong points. And thats one of 2K11's strongest points. So, both games offer up different styles of play. I'm liking Elite for its level of control and overall fun.

I really like the control scheme (except passing). Spent a few good minutes in the gym and was really digging the moves and simplicity of the controls. But like others have said I just can't pass everything else. I really think you guys should have:
A) integrate this with already pretty solid Live 10 gameplay
B)Keep refreshing Live
C) Keep Live 10 going while developing this on the side.Really like the controls but the rest just isn't happening.

Czar is NOT the owner of this forum. That's Steve_OS. And don't compare other games in the Elite thread, it starts game wars

My savings are geared (heavily I should add) towards my gaming needs, so it's not a matter of spending an extra 60 Bucks for this game. I know I'm an idiot and I'll end up buying it.

It's just sad that I'll do it for the wrong reasons.

I personally had a choice. I was told the plan for NBA and was given the choice to join the team and sign up for it.

I chose to join, and I'm very happy with that decision.
