I will now attempt to write about a basketball game! 2K Sports' upcoming PlayStation 3 version of NBA 2K7 (due out next March, obviously) will introduce the ability to shoot from the free-throw line using the "Sixaxis" controller's tilt sensor functionality. Altogether: ooooh!

Other things 2K's wittering on about include the return of last year's "shot stick pro" (no idea), the capture of individual players' distinctive movements, and authentic NBA motion-captured post moves like quick spins, drop steps, hooks, and fade-aways.

On top of that, there's a player-creator, and franchise mode claims to be the best ever with "multiplayer franchise, 3 team trading, progressive fatigue and season awards". As for general multiplay, there'll be no dumping of that here - quite the contrary in fact, with up to seven players supported on one PS3 and the ability to play five-on-five games over the Internet.

This sounds like a sweet game. I may have to go with this over Live. But Live does come out sooner so it might take my vote. I am very pleased with what this franchise is doing with its extra/new features.

IGN have a hands on report on the game and it does sound very nice, both in terms of graphics and features/gameplay.

Suppose it's good to see developers trying to utilize the controller, though i'm not bothered either way really.
