Cobb Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 Link EA is making a name change on one of its oldest franchise that debuted in 1994 with NBA Live ‘95; NBA Live will be morphing to NBA Elite starting with its 2011 version mentioned in the latest issue of Official Xbox Magazine according to Kotaku. NBA Elite ’11 should be hitting the shelves sometime this fall. According to an EA spokesperson, it’s “time to leave the past behind. We have exciting and significant changes coming to our NBA game this year that will usher in the future of basketball video games,” as the reason behind changing the name.

Jenneral Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 Pretty stupid. We still know that it's "Live". Changing the name won't make it suck any less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reno Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 well live made big improvements last year, so they are going towards a new direction. NBA elite sounds better than NBA Live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taber Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 They are making big changes, taking what they did with the NHL series by making the left stick control the player and the right stick control his hands. It actually looks kind of cool if they do it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NomarFachix Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 It was in my gamepro magazine today, basically you go up with either hand and use the joystick to control switching hands to avoid blocks, up and unders, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I don't get how the NHL game can be so damn good and the NBA games continually suck for EA, also this name change is horrible. Honestly if Live introduces the be a pro feature like the NHL games, it will be the number 1 game without a doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moeroadkill Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 that 2 stick controller doesn't look/sound too badill be waiting for a video for a in depth look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeasonSeven Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Live 10 wasn't bad. At times I actually enjoyed it more than I did 2K10. 2K's game is much better though. Game will probably suck now though. I remember reading an article that said "Now you can't get mad when someone makes a half-court shot, because it's entirely skill-based." Yikes.
