NBA Elite 11 Officially Canceled, Franchise Future Moves to EA Tiburon

[khaliib]

For some reason folks think the extra time will mean a better game. Outside visual upgrades, Elite 11 will lack "THE" major component necessary for game improvement/developement, "Gamer Feedback" of the prior release.

2k will have feedback to improve their title, while EA will not. It will be interesting to see how EA's Elite/Live release will equal or surpass the standard gamer's expect after playing 2k11.

It was never a sealed copy. The package was damaged(which is why the seller had the copies), and the game was in a different case with instruction booklets and the game I believe.

Mark basketball down as another "1-game" sport.

I miss the days of 3 and 4 developers competing for each sport.

This almost comes across like the next one will be their last crack at it.

He is staying at EA Canada, he was already assigned to a different project.

Unfortunately, the cost of developing quality games makes this type of attrition a fact of life.
