Game Summary:
NBA 2K7 is a basketball simulation video game developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports. It is the eighth installment in the NBA 2K franchise and the successor to NBA 2K6. It was released in 2006 for PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox, and Xbox 360. Shaquille O’Neal of the Miami Heat is the cover athlete of the game. NBA 2K7 is the predecessor to NBA 2K8 in the NBA 2K series.
The game strives to simulate the experience of the National Basketball Association and attempts to be as realistic as possible. Players play NBA basketball games with real life teams in a variety of game modes. Players may customize the gameplay, as well as the players, and can take control of an NBA team as the general manager, hiring coaches, and making a profit. The game features all the main aspects found in the NBA, such as commentary, realistic crowd animations, and halftime shows. The game’s overall gameplay, as well as the aesthetics, was said to have been significantly improved before release.
NBA 2K7 received a positive reception upon release. A lot of praise was directed at the game’s overall presentation; some critics called the visuals ”gorgeous”, while others said it was ”spectacular” and achieved great ”visual feats”. Most other praise was directed at the game’s improved gameplay, as well as the depth and wealth of content. Some negative comments were made concerning the models and animations of the players.
Gameplay:
NBA 2K7 is a basketball simulation game based on the National Basketball Association. Particularly similar to NBA 2K6, NBA 2K7 simulates the experience of the sport of basketball, and more specifically, the experience of the NBA. Players play NBA games with any real life or custom team, in many different game modes, such as quick play or Association. Players customize many aspects of the presentation and gameplay, such as camera angles, and the level of realism. Like the past NBA 2K games, NBA 2K7 is marketed as being as realistic as the actual NBA, with all the things featured in NBA games, such as commentary, and mascots. Kevin Harlan is the play-by-play commentator, Kenny Smith is the colour commentator, and Craig Sager is the sideline reporter.
Players can create their own players, using a system that has been modified from the previous games in the series. Players can then use their player in ’Street’ mode, a mode where players do battle against established NBA stars in street ball competitions. On the PlayStation 3, instead of shooting free throws with button presses, players must move the DualShock 3 controller in a way that resembles how free throws are shot in real life. Additionally, if a player is playing against another player, that player can shake their controller, which shakes the screen, in an attempt to distract the free throw shooter. Several online modes are present, including tournaments, and a mode that can support up to ten players, in which each individual player on the court at that time is controlled by a real person.[1]
Before release, many of the game’s features were said to have been drastically improved. Features that were heavily marketed include the updated visuals, individual player styles and animations, the number of players, which was said to be as large as the NBA’s, the new creation tools, and the online modes.
Soundtrack:
Music for NBA 2K7 includes tracks (primarily hip hop) by the artists; Aceyalone, Abstract Rude, Afrika Bambaataa, Celly Cel, Chali 2na, Choir Boy, MIH, The Crest, Deep Rooted, DJ Godfather, DJ Nasty, E-40, Fabolous, Hieroglyphics, Jay Rich, Johaz, Ithaka, Lupe Fiasco, Evidence of Dilated Peoples, Mos Def, Anwar Supastar, Rhymefest, Slim Thug, SonicTrip, Ginesis, TOPKAT, Wax Tailor, and Zion I.
