    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.

    The graphics of Steve Nash looked like a PS1 game. What's up with the DOF stuff.

    I'm very dissapointed in this years version. It's the exact same as last years, with new animations.

    This game is absolutely horrendous. My friend EASILY made 5 straight free throws with Ben Wallace and then made a shot from behind the free throw line - on all star - the first time he played it. Realistic? The ball hadling is rudimentary at best. It is also impossible to pass decently while running. PLEASE do not waste your money on this. No glitches were changed, no AI flaws fixed. UTTER CRAP.

    If you like basketball, you can't help but enjoy NBA 2K7. Moving forward, 2K needs to make player faces look like human beings, improve some suspect clock AI on the part of the CPU, and work on making on-the-ball defense fun. Still, this is a damn good basketball game and your best option on the 360 this season.

    Sure, there are oodles of new animations and gameplay options, but many key issues went untouched. It's still a great choice for anyone who likes a realistic pace to their NBA video games, but it's not the defining basketball simulation that many were hoping for.

    I’m going to make this really simple: this is the greatest basketball game I’ve ever played. This is also the greatest one year leap I’ve ever seen in a series.
