The sarcasm isn't appreciated. I don't think keeping the thread on topic is too much to ask

You do know that if they did a 360 that they would be back to Live 10? I think you mean a 180.

It's about what's productive and what's not . Most OS traffic aren't registered users. They're people who click on the forums as guests. If they click on the Elite forum they want to know about Elite, 2k then they want to know about 2k, but usually the information is most helpful in isolation from it's competition, in any genre

I want to post something constructive and nice before I go to bed...I like the intro by KD NICE!! I like the how it feels when I hit a shot, it does pretty much feel like I had a lot to do with it hitting the bottom of nets. I love the commentary, seems like a real telecast. Still tryin' to get used to the controls and how everything works in conjuction with one another so I won't post on control just yet...I retract my earlier post about the graphics being pretty bad, not as bad as I thought, I needed to adjust my tv to 720p to handle this game (some of you should try the same btw). Overall, I must say that this game feels like basketball I am watching basketball at the "Y" with my homeboys while 2k feels like a real NBA experience...Just my opinion...

After giving the demo a 2nd run I cant fathom that this is the best that EA can offer us. I emailed EAC CEO David Gardner a few years ago, and now it looks like I'll be emailing Peter Moore this time.
I know this is just the demo, but having QA'd 07/08, I had this feeling that I was getting how bad Live 07 was with the info that was being released as Elite 11.
Having said that, rEAnimator confirming that this build isnt too far off from retail is whats most disappointing. We should be expecting better than this at this time in gaming consoles.

rEAnimator, if Nate, Matt or Brent are still on the team, and if they still have my email I sent to them back in Nov of 06, please have them forward that email to you. Some of the issues I had back then, are some of the issues I have now after playing this demo.

3year project sounds about right, but at what cost to us NBA gamers do you think are going to sit around and wait for this. This will be the 7th game from EA on next-gen and its hamster cage filling at this point.

I will give it another go round and try to play good basketball with it, so far I don't like the gameplay, but I will give it another shot.
