    Despite some features that need upgrading, College Hoops 2K7 is still the king of all hoops games, pro or college, on any platform.
  2. Game Chronicles
    90
    If you love college basketball, do yourself a favor and find College Hoops 2K7. 2K Sports has the better game.
  3. Official Xbox Magazine
    90
    But at $20 for what is basically last year's quality game on original Xbox or $60 for the irresistible package on the 360 title offers, there's a lot to love on either platform. [Jan. 2007, p.76]

  4. Worth Playing
    81
    Though the game’s depth and detail caters to hardcore hoops fans, game after game, there are few moments that feel inauthentic in College Hoops, which is a difficult point to reach for any sports title.
  5. Game Informer
    80
    But for fans of college basketball, these faults are drastically outweighed by the deep Legacy mode, solid gameplay, and immersive campus atmosphere College Hoops 2K7 has to offer.
  6. GameSpot
    79
    College Hoops 2K7 is a very good college basketball game, but its value is somewhat lessened by the fact that it follows "College Hoops 2K6" by just eight months.
  7. GameSpy
    70
    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.

    Awesome Game. Recruiting is as in depth as it gets. Gameplay is fast, smooth, and realistic. Graphics look sick in high-def.

    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 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
