NBA 2K7

I found NBA 2K7 to be a really neat game. It has a season mode and most of the regular things. The graphics are not the best but it looks pretty lifelike. I found the game very interesting and lots of neat slam dunks make the game awesome. You can play online and challenge your friends and people you do not know. The rosters are updated from August 2006 so things have changed. I give it a 4 out of 5.
