NBA 2K7 continues the tradition of the NBA 2K series into the next generation for the first time on the PlayStation 3. All your standard modes and options that you normally find on a basketball simulation are here, including online head-to-head modes and complete customization of your team and leagues. The game's exclusives for next generation systems bring new features, such as signature styles where individual athletes perform and act just like in real life, the return of the shot stick determining accuracy on the court, and further in-depth options involving trades, player fatigue, online customization, and a complete player creator feature.
The gameplay is fast-paced and realistic, with an emphasis on control and strategy. Players can choose from over 400 teams and 450 players, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. The game's AI is also highly advanced, allowing opponents to adapt to your playing style. With multiple game modes to choose from, including online head-to-head and exhibition matches, there's something for every type of player.
