  1. Absolutely towering over the likes of NBA Live and all of the other pretenders to the throne, NBA 2k7 is an incredibly solid game that looks, sounds and plays as smoothly as you could ever wish it to – and goodness, its addictive.
  2. It looks great, sounds great, and plays great, and you can’t ask for much more than that. 2K7 Sports continues to impress.
  3. On 360, you'll get a basketball simulation that, while a bit short on extras(sorry, but 24/7 Mode just can't compare to "NBA Live's" slick All-Star Weekend package), tickles the twine where it counts: on the court. [Dec. 2006, p.87]
  4. NBA 2K7 is your typical update. It may not revolutionise anything, but the improved graphics and online mode are enough to win over fans of the series.

    Yo dawg i thought this game was pretty good but the referees make too many bad calls and the players throw bad passes. online is good though.
  3. It is once again the most solid, realistic, and kick-butt hoops game on the market. Really, the only debate is which version to get. If money's no object, pick it up on 360; it's easily the cream of the crop. Expand

    1. Gameplay a lot better then EA's live 07 2. Great new animations in 2k7 3. Unfortunatly not alot more then that basicaly its 2k6 few tweaks in graphics but all the same ai an glitches an exploits of 2k6 such a shame seems the trend for 2ksports with there 2k7 range same applies to nhl2k7 updated floor texture an a hand full of new animations don't justify another full price purchase.
