NBA ELITE Delayed; NBA JAM Ships on Wii Next Week, Xbox 360 and PS3 Coming Before Holidays

Over the past three years, EA SPORTS development teams have had a laser focus on creating titles packed with innovation and unsurpassed quality. The acclaim from fans and critics on most of our titles the past few years makes us proud and it also motivates us to keep getting better.

This year, we set extremely ambitious goals for our new franchise, NBA ELITE. We are creating a game that will introduce several breakthrough features that have been missing from the basketball genre. Unfortunately, NBA ELITE 11 is not yet ready and we have made a decision to delay next month’s launch. We are going to keep working until we’re certain we can deliver a breakthrough basketball experience.

In the meantime, the NBA season is just around the corner and we have a plan to keep our consumers close to the action:

-NBA JAM will launch on the Wii, as scheduled, on October 5. NBA JAM won recognition this summer as the best sports game at E3 and it’s a blast to play. In addition to the Wii version, we’re going to ship NBA JAM as a standalone product on the Xbox360 and PS3 in time for the holidays. Watch for more news soon on the exact timing of that release.

-For NBA LIVE 10 players, we will continue to offer free content and services throughout the 2010-11 season. We will start with a new roster update so you get all the players for the new season, free of charge. We will also provide free Dynamic DNA updates, daily, for the entire season. That’s a full season of basketball with new rosters and updates, free.

The decision to delay NBA ELITE was hard because the game has great promise. But ultimately we feel this is the right thing to do. We’ve been making steady progress on basketball for the past few years and it’s going to take extra time to make the game.

Why make this decision now? As with all of our titles, we continue to evaluate and improve the code right up until launch. Feedback from consumers is a very important part of the process . NBA ELITE had the benefit of play-testing, a demo and a lot of our own research. All that feedback revealed some concerns about gameplay polish, so we’ve listened to your feedback, and made a judgment that the game would benefit from more time in development.

I want to thank our NBA ELITE development team for their efforts to meet this year’s lofty goals, and we’re behind them as they continue their work. While no one is happy with this delay, we appreciate the support and ongoing feedback from our fans. We’ll have more information coming soon.

This shit looked suspect when they showed jordan finding space inbetween a crowd of defenders to take two steps, gather and slam it. Mj wasn't that nice now.

I agree... hope it actually makes a rivalry outta this 2k/EA competition. I downloaded that Elite demo......Straight staleface :hmm:. And that's from someone who has had an EA basketball game every year since NBA Showdown..... I know ya'll remember that half-court shot glitch!!! I used to bomb with Shaq!!! :lol:

They only hit the pause button because the 2k boys have them shittin their pampers. If they had the exclusive rights that they do for NFL they would release shitty product like they do madden every year.
 
:lol::lol::lol:

its not delayed, it's OVER

the next announcement is that they are scrapping it altogether, watch and see...
 
Good! Motherfuckers knew that shit was just that...people were dogging the demo...you either come strong, or don't come at all, bitches! If you can't run with the big dogs, stay the hell on the porch!

I bet it STILL won't be as nice as NBA 2K11!
 
Hopefully they realease the full NBA Jam for 360/PS3 instead of a stripped down version like originally intended.

At first I took it for what it was, just a delay, but the fact that they're gonna break out with NBA Live 10 and give people a roster update with no e.t.a. on when they're gonna release Elite they may just be doing something more drastic than just a delay (plus the title says NBA Elite Delayed, not just NBA Elite 11 Delayed). WoW this was completely disastrous for EA.​
 
^^^^ :eek::eek::eek::eek:

how are people gonna get NBA JAM though!?!? that was suppose to be unlockable only if you buy NBA ELITE

The title is confusing, they're trying to say that NBA Jam will be released as scheduled for the Wii but 360 & PS3 will get it as a stand alone for the holidays.​
 
This is great news.

Now us NBA Jam fans can actually get the game without buying that Garbage NBA Elite.

The Wii version is the only full version. The 360/PS3 one is a stripped down online version. That's why I said hopefully they add everything now.
