I'll try and break it down into cohesive sections and hope the rEAnimator and Stepsix give my thoughts good consideration. My impressions are from the PS3 demo. Graphics: - Remove Framerate issues with PS3

That's much easier said than done. It's not like they can just ' remove ' the framerate issue with the PS3 version. They'd need to figure out the exact reason it's happening first, then somehow remedy the problem.

It seems to happen when more when the ball is under the basket, but I disagree with you. Last years PS3 demo also had framerate issues that were fixed in the retail version, so I was just pointing out that the same should happen this year.

I didn't know that and yea, I saw that it happens more when the ball is under the basket too.

My little cousins love this game demo to death and its great spending time with my little cousins again, i havent seen them in so long.....lets be real here, elite was made to be for FUN and dear i say a semi ARCADISH stlye fashion of basketball....its a family game...i hope to god we can do a windmill dunk with shaq, just like the old times.....lol.....keep up the good work EA. Other people cant see the direction your going with this game, but I DO!....cant waitttt for elite 12 stop the hate!!! vc/2k sports fan

So does this mean your going to get a copy or are you going to wait for Elite 12?
Okay while I'm still not sure if Elite 11 is worth full price, i think i will be grabbing myself a copy soon after the street date or a patch or two hits. I have to say this.......the first time i played the demo, my thoughts was WTF, What the he\| , how could, how could they , why did they change the game so much????? Well i still don't know why ea changed it but, I'm starting to really like this demo. After some REAL playtime today i can see what EA has done.....well at lease in my eyes, They made this game so the person on the sticks can have fun with it,control whatever move, whenever we want......But to do this you have to put the time in. The right stick is like your body and once you move it...... your arms move as if you had a ball in your hands for real. I love the defence in this game, just wish some movements were alot more smoother than they are. Can't wait to see what the final build is like. Also I'm on the 360 with this.

This game should never have been released ...this is not a finished product period.

will there be a patch for floater shots and/or a sprint button? i understand the notion for not having turbo but if there was a way to have a limited sprint, fastbreaks could be alot better. it could be like the sprint that was in the older versions of live, where there was a meter. i couldn't do a floater. i have done them but i am referring to the one-handed chris paul/tony parker version.

Just tried to play this game again...couldnt stomach it. NBA Elite almost reminds me of the days when you were just satisfied that your player had the mapped on faces of your basketball heroes. Could play those games all day long. But gaming has moved past 2003 ...gone? I think I'm not alone when I say I expect so much more from todays Gen sports game. I want signature walks,moves,shots and dunks. I want signature team plays and offensive and defensive schemes. I'm sure if I spent more time on the controls this would be a lackluster 1 on 5 arcady experience of a game. But like I wrote at the beginning of this post ... I've played those games earlier in the decade. I need and expect so much more for my 60 bucks. Maybe they can bundle it with the Sports Illustrated package...again to move it off the shelves. Umm ... is this game targetting the Wii Generation?
