EA Sports' basketball video game, NBA Elite 11, will be delayed until an unspecified time, according to a press release by the company.
I've heard bad things about the demo, including a glitch in which Andrew Bynum would freeze up in the middle of the lane and hold out his arms like Jesus on the cross.
I was planning to get NBA 2K11 anyway (in fact, I'm absolutely psyched about it), so I'm not heartbroken by this anyway. The Live series hasn't been good for years in any event.

It actually *improves* many people chances. PS3 and 360 were supposed to only get NBA Jam as a download if they bought Elite, but now they'll be released separately at some point.
Pushing back an annual sports game seems very rare. Pushing back this year's version leaves them with less time for next year's revision, but maybe next year's won't be the one with the problem. They're going to get killed by 2K this year now.
They were probably going to get creamed by 2K11 even if they had released it on time. Have you seen all the new and amazing features for that game? NBA 2K11 has the potential to be not only the best sports games, but one of the best games of all-time.
