NBA Showdown

The playoffs are in full swing, but the next showdown is already upon us. With EA renaming its basketball franchise to NBA Elite and 2K getting Michael Jordan as a playable character in their game, the question is, which one will you be playing?

Now EA is coming out with some interesting changes to their game including their “total control” feature where you control the legs of your player with one analog stick and the hands with the other, add to that their “always on” physics and it looks as if they might have a pretty awesome game on their hands.

2K will also be improving on their game with updated graphics, controls, presentation and music, but that’s not what most people are talking about.

It’s all about number 23. We haven’t seen MJ in a NBA game in forever and now he will be in 2K11, will that be the difference maker or will the revamp of EA’s franchise win gamers over?
