One improvement that could benefit the 2K7 line is the installment of signature poses or moves. Being able to see Lebron's signature dunk or Mutumbo's finger wave would add to the realistic gaming experience. I don't recall any basketball game with trademark poses and moves thus far. For my second game, I had a rematch with my friend. This time, we used lower rated teams: Knicks vs. Magic (me). The game was very close throughout until I pulled away in the closing minutes. It is far too easy to dunk and layup and too difficult to put any pressure on players dunking. I find it difficult to make defensive stops since most guards seem to be able to cut across an entire team's defense. This game, as with many other sports games, fuels competitiveness amongst its players. While trading baskets, I heard nothing but trashtalk coming from my opponent. However, it definitely fuels the gaming experience. I've yet to try out the other features in the game such as the franchise mode and plan to do so in the coming weeks.

NBA 2K7 is the newest installment of the long running 2K series from Sega Sports. I find the game fun for any sports fan and easy to pick up for the casual gamer. The main point like most sports games is having the oppurtunity to controll your favorite players and teams. I played a game with my friend using 10 minute quarters. I lost by 12 points after trailing much of the game. At one point, I was down by almost 25 points. However, the game has a clutch factor mode which helps with momentum swings throughout the game. Sometimes, this feature can become ridiculous. In my case, my team started hitting almost every 3-pointer. One of my complaints about the game is the free throw shooting system. I find it far too easy to make free throws even with historically bad free throw shooters such as Shaq and Ben Wallace. Another problem I had was effectively using the big men (C and PF). They are often too slow and lose the ball quickly in the post. The post moves are hard to execute. This makes me use the guards much more often because of their ability to quickly manuver to the baslet and score. I'm sure learning the post moves will improve the gameplay and I will practice more before the next game.
