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.
