EA Sports has apparently thrown in the towel on NBA Elite 11 and moved the development from EA Canada to EA Tiburon.
“We set ambitious goals for NBA Elite, and we are creating a game that will introduce several breakthrough features that have been missing from the basketball genre."
Apparently EA Canada wasn’t able to manage those breakthrough things and has lost the project.
“We are going to keep working until we’re certain we can deliver a breakthrough basketball experience. We feel this is in the best interest of our consumers, our company and our shareholders.”
NBA Jam, which should have been included with the game, will be released separately later this month for Xbox 360 and PS 3 and is already available on the Wii.
No word has been offers on how long we can expect to wait for it. Perhaps it will simply turn into NBA Elite 12, which wouldn’t be such a bad thing, would it?
Maybe NBA Jam sales will bolster them enough to get this game completed some day.
