Guest STL10 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) The NBA is pretty much the only sport these days that features a legit head-to-head competition between companies. That is being evidenced even more this year with both 2K Sports and EA Sports making big moves for consumer interest and market share. 2K Sports signed Michael Jordan as the cover athlete and NBA Elite 11 includes a free downloadable copy of NBA Jam.(FOR PS3 and 360) Which one will have a stronger influence on a potential purchase decision?

moeroadkill Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 tbh neither of them persuade what game im going to buy i could care less about the jordan extra, i mean ill check them out but i wont bother playing them much after that. 2k people will buy 2k as with live/elite people. but the nba jam thing does look like fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Why would I buy a new game to get an old game? Jordan > Jam, even though that's not even the main reason I'm going with 2K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 To be honest, having Michael Jordan on the game really influenced my decision to get 2k11 on console this time comparing to getting 2k10 on PC, but I am going with 2K no matter what.

Guest STL10 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I'm getting NBA Elite through Sports Illustrated and NBA 2k11 at Best Buy. $60 for 2 new games=win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHutch Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I don't care if 2k had Darko on the cover, I would still go with 2k over "Elite". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I don't care if 2k had Darko on the cover, I would still go with 2k over "Elite". What if LeBron was on the cover? *pressure* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHutch Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 What if LeBron was on the cover? *pressure* Still buy 2k, that way I still get a game and some toilet paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall2Wall Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Haha nice Hutch! As for me, I wont even check out the Jordan challenge. If that's the biggest feature in 2K, I'm going to be extremely pissed. Their biggest feature better be a gameplay improvement. So which one is more influential to me? Definitely Elite+Jam, but I'm still going with 2K regardless, because they have a much better gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hopefully they fix 2k10 my player mode. I wasn't able to finish a playoff series because it froze. Stops right before the finals, too. Hopefully it isn't bad omen for my team :/. But Jam vs Jordan is tough... especially since Elite really improved on their gameplay. I'd say in the end, Jordan will win because people buy these games for a complete NBA simulation, and nothing's more complete than playing as the best team in NBA history.
