NBA 2K7 for PS3 gets tilt control free throws
NewsPosted 10/10/2006 - 1:55pm GMT+1
2K Sports has released some new details for the PlayStation 3 version of NBA 2K7.
NBA 2K7 from 2K Sports is released for PS2, Xbox and Xbox 360 on October 27 here in the UK, but with the delayed release of the PlayStation 3, the European release of the game on the PS3 won't arrive until March. However, the PS3 version does look to have some features that might be worth waiting for.
Unique to the PS3 game is free throwing using the tilt sensing capabilities of the PS3's Sixaxis controller, which 2K Sports say creates a more realistic free throw experience. Also unique to the PlayStation 3 is five-on-five online play, and offline play for up to seven players at one time on a single console - not bad for a console that supposedly doesn't have a good online service.

The Xbox 360 version also allows up to four players to play with or against each other offline.
What the heck would be the purpose of using 7 controllers at the same time in a basketball game??? 5 friends vs 2??? Come on, that is stupid.
The best thing that anyone can do is to have 5-on-5 online play, and that is something the Xbox 360 does a LOT better than the Playstation 3.
