lol looks and sounds exactly like 2k10

Yeah no major differences, but then again there isn't a huge need to make any. A few tweaks to the gameplay, removing as many glitches as possible, polishing up the presentation, and obviously updating the rosters is really all the game needs. The Jordan modes and Classic Teams will add some extra fun to the game as well.

Thanks for the vid JWall. It's much easier to see the changes now. The gameplay looks good from what I can tell.

 

 

BTW, it's funny how they recycle commentator lines every game. It's no wonder how I got them practically memorized by now.

Lol yeah you'd think they'd get more original, but even Clark Kellogg is saying the same things as Kenny Smith did. Just a more annoying voice.

 

But as for the gameplay, it looks very smooth, and we can see the great addition of the pullup jumpers to add to the game's realism. I'm sure the game plays even better than it looks.

Madden added Gus Johnson and recycled Cris Collinsworth, pretty pathetic.

NBA Elite Hi-Def Screenshots

 

Features

 

Hands-On Control

NBA ELITE 11 reinvents the entire basketball experience by allowing you to take control and showcase your skills. For the first time in a basketball video game, all elements of the experience are based on skill, not luck. With the left stick controlling your feet, and the right stick controlling your hands (one-to-one dribbling, shooting, passing, stealing, blocking etc), NBA ELITE 11 offers the most authentic basketball experience yet.

 

Real Physics

Radically improved game physics rid the days of locked animated sequences leaving you in control of the player at all times. When you drive aggressively to the net and go up with authority, you can be sure that whoever is standing in your way has a pretty good chance of getting tossed to the ground.

 

Real AI

Driven by the technology of other best in class EA SPORTS titles like Fight Night and NHL, NBA ELITE 11 offers CPU play that truly plays like a real human. Thousands of captured moves (including some captured by Kevin Durant himself) play back when the CPU is on offense. The end result is CPU offensive moves which are extremely responsive and mimic what a user player would do. There are Real AI sequences for dribble moves, post moves, shots, and signature player moves.

 

Become Legendary

You’re the ultimate star in the all-new Become Legendary - Be a Pro mode. Pick up the demo and start your career in the Jordan Draft Showcase to get drafted into the NBA! Once you land on your new NBA team, work your way through the 23 Legend Levels creating your own unique career, making ESPN headlines and gaining endorsement deals on your way to becoming legendary.

 

ESPN In-Game Broadcasting

Our primary focus for presentation this year was to integrate the authentic ESPN broadcast package. With this year’s game feeling more like real NBA basketball than ever before, we wanted to make sure that it looked and sounded just like a real NBA game on ESPN. We’re bringing you a dynamic, exciting and realistic experience like no other in which you will truly believe you are in the game.

 

EASBA

Online Team Play in past iterations of the NBA franchise has been popular, but lacked a sense of player and team progression. For NBA ELITE 11, we created the EA SPORTS Basketball Association; an online multi-player league, complete with your own created player and created teams. If it sounds familiar it is because we have taken a page from NHL’s EASHL (which has over half a million users).

 

NBA Jam

Included with the purchase of NBA ELITE 11 is a one-time downloadable code that will enable users to access three modes of NBA JAM – Play Now, Classic Campaign and Online. Already set to revolutionize the way basketball simulation games are played, the inclusion of NBA JAM will make NBA ELITE 11 the ultimate basketball video game experience available on the Xbox360.

 

I say NBA 2k11 is the clear favorite, but who cares?

 

As long as the game has competition (Unlike Madden) then that's a win for everyone.

2k always knows how to make the game fresher each year. This year they have all the Jordan modes to make it different from the typical NBA game. Add to that, they have press conferences and endorsements in player mode.

 

Elite looks worse, the commentary sounded terrible, and the gameplay looks too complicated to have a smooth sim.

That's another thing I noticed but didn't bring up. They have 3 commentators but none of them hardly talk... just whenever a team makes a basket. 2k's is much more realistic, with both guys constantly talking about things as the action is happening.
