  1. Despite some features that need upgrading, College Hoops 2K7 is still the king of all hoops games, pro or college, on any platform.
  2. I really enjoyed the create-a-chant option and Team Unity adds to the simulation experience by measuring how the team works together. It has the most solid gameplay system I have ever experienced in a basketball game.
  3. There’s just barely enough new stuff to warrant a purchase from those who already took the plunge with 2K Sports’ NBA game. The atmosphere of a true-to-life college basketball game comes right through, both the screen and the speakers, perfectly.

    The most painful realization will come to owners of "College Hoops 2K6," who will be hard-pressed to find a major improvement in the core game, outside of the roster update. It's hard to justify paying full price for such a similar game.

    I'm blown away by this game and I've been playing the 2k college games since NCAA College Basketball 2k3. You really feel like your there while you play this game and the emotion factor, game play, audio, all around is superb! Expand

    Easily the best college basketball game to date and after playing the EA 2007 game there is literally no contest at all. Graphics are good if not great but given the amount of arenas, players and teams I am sure that is why the graphics had to take somewhat of a backseat. Custom chants, pre and post game shows with the CBS sports crew, etc make it a very immersive experience. Play seems to be more balanace (ie, hard is hard but not impossible like say 2k7 which always was either too hard or too easy). Highly recommended. Expand
