what happens when jvg leaves for coaching? didn't he say he wanted to do one or two more years of tv before he gets into coaching?

Congrats Elite, you have a little thin that pops up that says ESPN Tuesday or Friday or Christmas, and you have an ESPN overlay at the bottom, but outside of that, there is nothing. Typical EA hype man. Im calling them out. Why show them in the booth at all? why not show in game commentary. Its the same as that Madden video where it was actually Gus Johnson calling a madden game as opposed to In Game commentary. They hid that stuff cause it was pedestrian. Yeah those announcers sounded good when they recorded it, but Im not holding my breath on how it all sounds in game cause EA, time and time again, proves they are incapable of getting good commentary in their games.

This is honestly tough to argue. To me, nailing ESPN integration would be nailing things like pre-game show, half-time show, and post-game show. And, add to that the commentary you speak of. You reference to the Madden Gus Johnson videos are eerily similar, as he too sounded amazing in the studio... until his lines were broken up and butchered and pieced horribly together in game.

EA is very good and creating hype videos, all the while really not showing us much, if anything, at all.

I can't really argue this at all. When someone says integration, I think of MUCH more than commentary and overlays. I think of the shows in NFL 2K and the simulcasts that used to be in Madden. Not to mention full news feeds and stuff like that...

I do like this play by play team though. Much better than Albert. My ONLY issue is that it still has the trademark EA stitched up treatment.

NBA Elite has just ESPN commentary and overlays.

At least, NCAA Basketball had ESPN as well as CBS presentation.
