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

Looking at player models, I dont get why some players look so much better than compared with Live 10. Brandon Jennings is such a big improvement compared to last years game. Same with KD. Trying to get a hang of these controls, but so far, I'm not liking them all too much along with the graphics. Love the atmosphere of the arena.

KG on the other hand, is so freaking ghoulish looking in this game especially at the freethrow line. I couldnt put my finger on why KG looks so dang scary in this demo, but I realized what and why it reminded me of this:

You can literally replace MJ with Garnett in Thriller. Its not even funny.

I'm also loving that we can choose either hand we want to steal with. Its a cool feeling when you can guess how a player is going to move and strip him, then go to the other for a slam.

On offense I'm still trying to figure out the dribble system when tryin to beat my man. The times I've been able to get past my man are when I had separation and tried to use his momentum against him.

I gotta keep workin on it but I think I'll figure it out eventually. The post game is pretty fun to use if you take the time to learn some of the moves. Overall the shooting is working me I'm loving shots close to the basket like layups, but jumpers are killing me I'm missin everything still lol!

I can't seem to knock down a lot of shots. I'm missing all kinds of way airballed a few shots and bricked many. The hard thing about it is in game shots are a lot harder without the shot indicator. Even though I can see how I missed it I'm still not sure if I'm putting enough power on the shot or not.

I'm going to keep playing around with it b/c I think I'll figure it out. Overall my best bets right now is to play lock down D and post up on the other end with Pau.

Now for the negatives for all the nice things I'm feeling with the controls they are looking terrible on screen LOL! The blocked shots look funky as hell and some of my steals have been a lil WTF!! sometimes.

I'm looking past a lot of it because the control is a lot of fun to use, but I can see how this is going to turn off a lot of guys. Overall the game has been a lot of fun to play but it looks downright ugly a lot of times. Contextual animations are going to need a lot of work next year for sure.

So basically I would say the game is a lot of fun for me to play but it loses a lot of points due to animations. Right now I'm going to give the game 7.0 because it is fun for me to play but the genericness of it isn't good at all.

Back to playing the game for me....
Very good post, that's the exact feelings i have about the game.

I don't know have you answered or not, how can you make some post moves done, i just can't get it yet, thx.

Re: NBA Elite 11 Demo Available For PS3, Later Today For 360, Post Impressions Here

This game is kinda fun, and a change of pace with the controls. The shooting feels more rewarding than any other game.

In be a pro mode, i never felt like a scrub as much as i have in this game. lol

Its not a bad game, It's fun..... But its definitely not a NBA Basketball Sim.

It's definitely more like Live 2003 with more Sim elements thrown in.

become legendary mode is better than I thought it'd be, but after watching that video and playing it myself, this game is horrible! The passing is the most complicated thing ever, and its PASSING!! Inbounding is a challenge as well, RT to pass? Who ever changed passing to RT is an idiot, A has always been passing and I don't even know why you would want to change that. smh. Good thing is, you can change the controls, but wow, this is...bad.
