2K Launches with PS3

Two more titles have been officially added to the PlayStation 3 North American launch list. NBA 2K7 and NHL 2K7 will be available November 17.

NBA 2K7 offers 1080p support and uses the SixAxis controller for a new free-throw shooting system. NHL 2K7 ties goalie movements to the SixAxis and for checking other players. Both games can be played online.

"With the power of the PlayStation 3 system, 2K Sports continues to make remarkable strides in the development of next-generation console games," said Greg Thomas, President of Visual Concepts. "The capabilities of the Cell processor have allowed us to deliver the next-generation quality of visuals and fluid animations that gamers expect. The SixAxis wireless controller will introduce an entirely new way for gamers to enjoy our titles and give our development teams new, exciting ideas to bring unique features to our sports titles."

Hmm, i wonder why 360 version isnt 1080p.

shoota336381d ago

Beacause the weak xbox 360 cant do real 1080p

kmis876381d ago

In all fairness, 1080p support was announced very late in nba 2k7's development.

How is this for 1080p. Alot more than 2 people huh? Here it come's people "Mart" will say it looks bad so thats how they were able to do 1080p. And my answer to that is 1080p means cleaner crisper picture not allways prettier. Have you ever seen the woman in HD porn? Oh I just threw up a little in my mouth.

You are a tool you have no opinion of your own. I have read quit a few of your rants about XBOX this and XBOX that. What comes out your mouth and on to these pages is BS. I will only entertain you this once by replying to you. If you would like people to take you serious you should post intelligent and well thought out sound theory's. Oh yea please dont procreate! Look it up its in the dictionary.

Achievement Hunter: The Ten Easiest Achievements Ever

If you're an Xbox Live subscriber, then you're no doubt familiar with the GamerScore that's associated with your GamerTag. It's a way to notify players that you're quite good at a game, as you unlock points for completing certain tasks within it.

I remember when the Simpsons game released, the Start Achievement was funny. Now, looking back, it seems lazy. Hah.

I clicked on this article for the sole purpose of making sure The Simpson's "press start" achievement was included. If it weren't, the article would have no merit whatsoever.

Top 25 Most Dominant Teams in Sports Gaming History (Part I)

Operation Sports features the top 25 most dominant teams in sports gaming history. While these teams didn't win it all in real life, they were unstoppable on the consoles.

Excerpt: "#22 Detroit Lions (Tecmo Super Bowl)

Before Detroit was the 0-16 laughing stock of the NFL, the virtual Lions were surprisingly good in the early '90s.

The Tecmo Super Bowl Lions were led by Mel Gray and Barry Sanders. These two players alone could carry your offense and decimate almost every defense in the game. For some reason, Barry could not be tackled, and to make matters worse, Mel would run pretty much every kickoff/punt back for a touchdown.

The 16th through 25th most dominant teams grace this edition.
