NBA 2K7 is a 2006 basketball simulation video game developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K.

The game strives to simulate the experience of the National Basketball Association and attempts to be as realistic as possible.

The game features all the main aspects found in the NBA, such as commentary, realistic crowd animations, and halftime shows.

Players customize many aspects of the presentation and gameplay, such as camera angles, and the level of realism.

Plenty of modes and gameplay depth combine with stunning visuals and presentation to make NBA 2K7 this year’s king of the court and a must own for PS3-owning hoops fans.

"The load of modes and options will keep you easily entertained until next season, and the new animations and context-sensitive controls add a never-before-seen layer of realism, even if you have seen everything else before.
