For a company worth billions?? I don't think so. The team working on Elite isn't talented enough. Wonder if EA still had Mike Wang as their gameplay designer, where this game would be right now.. Maybe Mike saw where this game was heading, and decided to leave and join 2K again. Like many said NBA Live 10 was a step in the right direction, but Elite looks to have taken a number of steps back.

EA needs to hire a new team to work on this game next year, or the series will continue to suffer. So will their fan base, and sales. Just my opinion.

Watch the video, and listen to someone who knows how to make a good basketball game. The departure of Mike from EA, was the beginning of the end for the series IMO.

Its time to move on from that gameplay and EA did the right thing.

I totally disagree about the talent. It's clear they have the talent in that company. In my opinion, they made decisions that I totally disagree with. But talent is not an issue. If Wang was still there, you would still have much of what you see. To a point, you only have so much influence on the final product. If they restart the team, they're dead. How many reset and passes would they get. They've committed to this direction and will supposedly stick with it for three years.

Again, this is just silly. So if Mike was there, you think he would have had the power to say no to Littman!? Stop the hero worship. At the most, if you believe this is the "end" as you say, then Mike's leaving was only a SIGN, not a trigger. HUGE difference.
