decent effort     Posted 12 March 2007 While the graphics aren't as good as you'd expect considering all the hype the Playstation 3 has received over the last several months, the actual game is pretty good. The controls in NBA 2K7 are never a major problem, and the graphics are very good. Still, the graphics aren't that much of a drastic leap forward compared to the Playstation 2 basketball games, and that probably means this game is going to be forgotten one day.
Also, the music is pretty annoying (what little I've heard) but using the motion senser is a nice, innovative touch. It might take a while getting used to the controls, but one day I think we'll all improve with them.
The positives are pretty good, though. If you like basketball and own a PS3, there's no reason not to own this game.
NBA 2K7 it Looks the Bomb.     Posted 08 March 2007 I like NBA 2k7 Becase it Looks Raw in that system Playstation 3
Best hoops sim available     Posted 02 March 2007 While not a huge fan of NBA Basketball (I prefer the college game, hence the 4 stars), NBA 2k7 is the best basketball SIM available for the PS3. I say SIM because this game plays more like the true game of basketball...it isn't an acarde type of basketball game. I rented the game for a week, so I didn't have enough time to build a full appreciation for the game's ups (or a full dislike of the game's downs)
Pros:
- player models and movement are superb. Players even have similar jump shot mechanics as the real life players. Shaun Marion (sp?) has his signature ugly jumper and all.
- realistic game play. You won't be running fast breaks for dunks on every posession like other NBA games. This game plays very much like real basketball, which I think is the game's most important quality.
Cons:
- getting used to the R2 sprint button. I know, I know...most of the PS3 sports titles are doing this now, it's just going to take adjustment. I just don't like the L2 and R2 buttons for this. I've found that holding those buttons down for long periods of time (like sprinting and playing face-up D in hoops games) causes hand cramps due to the longer range of motion on these 2 buttons in comparison to the PS2 dual-shock controller. I don't like that you can't change the button mapping to be more like the previous games. In all of the button map options in 2K7, R2 is the sprint button. That annoyed me.
- Sixaxis free throws. This felt like a gimmick to make use of the motion sensing capabilities of the PS3 controller. Luckily you can change it back to use the analog stick for freethrows.
- I don't care for the right analog 'Shot stick'. I'd prefer to use this for advanced dribbling moves (cross-over, spin move, etc). I find the freestyle dribbling system in the 2K basketball games difficult to use. I have a hard time of getting it to do what I want.
I didn't play a lot of the other game modes, and didn't have enough time to play much into a franchise. All said, this is a great hoops game. I won't buy it, only because I'll likely buy the College Hoops 2K7 game when it's available. But if you prefer the NBA game, or must have a hoops game now, this is by far your best bet.
Amazing     Posted 12 February 2007 This is by far the best basketball video game ever. You can play several single players modes, from making a name of your own player to doing the playoff and season modes. However, the best part about this game is the online mode. You can challenge hundreds of players in the lobbies, which rank the players into 3 categories so that you can play someone of your own calibur. The bottom line is that this game is a must-buy for any basketball fan. period.
