    Bump all that bro, the gme is better period, yeah EA might have a better online performance but the @K game is better, just like the Show and MLB @K, stop tripping and give them they props. I will give the caveat that if they release some more bug filled garbage on release day, they will lose major points

    EA did awesome on baseball. Cant wait till 2012 comes up, so they can start doin that again.

  • Jdo2928

    Because were comparing the two games, saving you “elite ass kissers” some money.

    • waaaaka flocccka

      you owned that guy

  • Arod_111

    its suppose to be fun mabey the fans wont say trade him but they all think it (in real life) if a guys being an a hole its not like a fan has a say over if joe johnson gets traded or signs with a new team but they take it one step further and had them chant it to me it would be fun to hear the fans of a team i dread to be on to scream trade him to me

    Hahahaha! That’s really cool!

    NIce addition. Can’t wait to get a hold of this game,

    I guess we know daley’s other account: Gamerz.

  • FC_24

    It’s sad if you really believe that’s all there is to it. I guess we’re buying Halo: Reach and Call of Duty Black Ops for new guns.

  • NoisyDonkey

    Well being from Seattle, if I get drafted by OKC…you know I’ll be demanding a trade as soon as I can. I figure I’ll do the same thing if the Clips come a drafting too. Maybe I won’t be come loved as quick as possible, but I don’t care I’d rather stick it to Clay than be loved by that group.

  • JKits

    My goodness…2K just keeps “one-upping” NBA Elite…now its more like “ten-upped”…NBA Elite = OWNED…lol

  • THEMAN

    gamers like u should never comment…you just sound dumb…seriously…you might as well go play double dribble…nobody’s ever satisfied these days…go trade in your system for Super NES bro

  • sad

    you just look dumber and dumber all the time its beginning to be awesomely epic how fail you are and how painfully obvious it is that you are what you talk so much shit about, CLASSIC LOL

  • sad

    what do you get out of your love for ea… free games? a small fee? it has to be something plz spill the beans so we can all know

  • Philly

    The reason why those guys were blurred out, which wont happen in the game, had to do with the 2K guys getting NBA approval to show the people (who is probably Kobe and Phil Jackson).

  • Philly

    I’m a tad more optimistic that the features and such 2K11 will have will actually have some substance… some meat to them, not just “filler”. I’ll say this though. I’m surprised that we haven’t seen/heard a lot about 2K11′s gameplay. Most of the insights have been about features. Of the official 2K vids we’ve seen, most have been about Jordan, or features. I know they’ve shown us some pre-final builds of the game, and they weren’t bad. But they weren’t spectacular either. I mean from what I’ve seen so far, other than new animations and new player movement (which are appreciated), there isn’t much new in terms of gameplay, and I hate to hear that because some of 2K’s big problems OFFLINE are with ball morphing, the fact boxing out doesn’t have an effect on rebounding, so-so Defensive Logic. Now at least 2K’s sliders work (at least in 2K9 for me they do), but it doesn’t fix all those problems. In a long way haha I’m saying you might have a point there.

  • Bullitt_711

    i really dont care much about my player im dying to play the demo and check the new controls tho

  • Bullitt_711

    2K has NEVER been great. 2K creates the players with great detail and great animations, but outside of that it’s just good. 2K has been a solid and better bball title since 2007.

    The servers cower to EA, if theres a problem it takes an eon to fix, you still can’t save rosters or settings prior to going online, you can still abuse over and over again scoring in the paint with the best players and the best teams.

    Just wait until the demo drops and see who has the better controlled game. Because right now both games have Jordan Challenges. Bith games claim great control. The only things I see 2K has for sure woin is the player detail and the player animations, other than that it’s all up in the air.

  • jonathan

    it affects team chem, fan support and league popularity

    omg !!! iThink im in love <3

  • Xcef2008

    Do you need an upside for being arrogant or an asshole? I mean They are in it for themselves. Not for the fans or for their teammates. They choose to act that way and know their will be punishments for it. If someone like T.O calls out his QB, he knows there isnt going to be an upside to it. But he chooses to act that way anyway. Same thing here perhaps.

  • AJ1116

    look at how many people liked this thread on fb and look how many like that last elite thread from yesterday
    lmao
    2k is the funnest basketball game i ever played usually with live after a while itll get boring and ill be ready for the new one to come out
    but now im still playin 2k and enjoyin dat shit too

  • Geeznutz

    Talk about replay value wow! you got basically got three games in one !this is worth $60 please 2k fix the online play and its a wrap! just a side note is anyone else bored with madden already

  • Anonymous

    if only we could convince these arrogant EA fanboys..

  • Nphillyk

    To answer your questions. 1) I hope they do fix online this year. Everything else seems like it has improved from last year so them fixing that would make this game near perfect.
    2) Hell yeah I’m bored with Madden. The problem with Madden this year is that it has almost no replay value whatsoever. They haven’t changed Franchise or Superstar mode in years and those game modes where the ones that added the most replay value. Another issue I’m having is finding the right difficulty settings to make the game challenging, but with having my WRs drop every pass and the CPU break every tackle. I think I have managed to find a middle ground between the All Pro difficulty (too easy) and All Madden (Not too hard, the CPU just cheats more).
    As an aside, I think 2K programming the game the way it was last year is what ultimately contributed to the poor online experience. What I mean by that is, look at how many times your the accessed the servers while in “offline” mode. As soon as you turn on the game it has to pause to access current information from the servers. As a programmer myself, I can tell you how difficult it is to fully test how something will work when there are hundreds of thousands of users accessing the servers simultaneously. Hopefully they will be better prepared to meet that type of demand this year. Especially since they might actually eat more into the sales of the EA basketball franchise.

    Couldn’t have said it any better homey!

    its Funny because i was loooking at the Ummm NBA LiVE/Elite 11

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHYWv-Mwt0c Looook at it rite there!
    how embarrising man! 2k11 is a Real Game…. thaaaat Elite Game juss had a Funeral!

    • slim

  • http://twitter.com/midwestkid31

    YESS!!! attribute caps!!!! no more 7’6 dudes with 99 speed and ball handling

  • Gamerz

    sound dumb? please remind me then why else i should spend another $60 this year. Im not saying 2k11 is a bad game…im just saying its not looking like its worth it if i have a game from last year.

  • Gamerz

    bad comparison considering both those games have new stories and maps and pretty much the only things the same as their previous versions are maybe the art style and a couple of characters…….oh yea and on top of that, new guns.

  • Gamerz

    well said, thanks

  • C71323

    If you have no problems with Elite then you just don’t enjoy good basketball. You, as well as about 90% of this site are EA fanboys, which is fine, but those same people lack most knowledge of any sports. I know this will get deleted as most of my posts do, but that’s okay. You EA lovers have fun with a half ass put together basketball game.

    There is a reason EA had to buy the NFL license. NFL 2K blew them out the water every single year, just didn’t have the money at the time to do offer more than EA. As a result, Madden and NCAA (Not as much as Madden) are catastrophes that we are forced to buy if you want a football video game. I still don’t get why they stopped with MVP Baseball a LONG time ago. Before MLB The Show came around, it was the top baseball game by a long shot.

    Don’t get me wrong, I want Elite to be a good basketball game. I want a reason to splurge $120 on two very good quality, yet different basketball games. Seeing the videos of Elite that I have seen though, I don’t even want to play the demo. I know I’m going to get the “It’s all about how it feels”, except for the fact that it’s not. Graphics that look to be from a PS2 game, and gameplay that resembles that as well. If 2K11 improved their online stuff, which they more than likely did, they are getting a prime opportunity to bury another EA franchise, along with MVP

  • Sdot

    @ PASTA B/C A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE BEIN DA BAD GUY ALSO ITZ NOT LIKE U CAN’T MAKE AMENDS & HELP 2 CHANGE UR IMAGE ONCE U GET TRADED

    PEOPLE WILL ACT AN AS JUS 2 XPERIENCE IT DEN GET TRADED AWAY & MOST LIKELY DO IT DA OTHER WAY

  • Sdot

    DEER WAS NO PAYOFF N A LIVE TIL LIVE 10

    SO WHO U TRYNA KID

    & ELITE IS SHAPIN UP ON A SHKAY FOUNDAION @ BEST CUT IT OUT SHORTY

  • Sdot

    OK DAT JK WAS DRY

    GONE NEED SUM WATER AFTA DAT

  • jonathan

    i agree with j kits. just appreciate what you got. what if those communist chinese punks take over our country and make basketball games illegal? might as well get the best one while it’s here…..

  • JKits

    Thats hilarious lol

  • whitemamba

    You’d be stupid to expect a radical overhaul of game play each year just to satisfy you. The majority of 2K consumers loved the game play, and that’s what sold. They’re going to refine, and improve what they felt was better but there’s only a certain amount a sports game can do.

  • Jonathan lee

    lol i like how you spelled water correctly

  • Gamerz

    yet everyone slammed madden for not doing anything with a perfectly fine franchise mode. this site is a bunch of hypocrites. make up your minds.

  • Gamerz

    so now its perfectly ok to just re-release the same game?

    • Robbie

      wow, you’re a jackass. how is this a rerelease of the same game? go to a park and play real basketball or make your own game if 2k makes you so unhappy

  • mavsfan

    Have you read any of the insights?? I dont get how anyone can throw out the 2k10.5 card after reading those.

    Branchable animations? Check
    Improved A.I.? Check
    More control over what moves you can pull off? Check
    Jordan Challenge, Historic teams, and Creating a Legend Mode? Check
    Deeper My Player mode? Check

    And we still haven’t heard much about presentation and Association improvements

    Sounds good enough for $60 IMO

  • UM_Gophers

    excited fo October 5th! I like the small things like design youur own shoe. but I think the press confrences coould get very boring though

  • Jchap3821

    yea its a wrap for ea. 2k 11 best hoop game ever

  • jace

    LOL Elite? doens’t even have my player mode, graphics? suck this year, idk how they’re going to pick them selves up after this year. The only thing elite improved was the floor =.=.

  • projectkage

    Sorry Pasta, I understand where you’re coming from, but it’s the same way with a lot of games these days, allowing you to make choices that will effect the outcome of your story, career, etc. (ex: Mass Effect) It’s all about you and whatever the fuck you chose to do with your career.
