NBA '07 Featuring The Life: Vol. 2

While publishers EA Sports and Take-Two seem content to chase each other with conventional basketball sims, Sony's NBA series is quickly distinguishing itself as a quirkier, more experimental take on the sport. And while the PS2 version takes the unusual step of putting you into the shoes of a single player, rather than a team, the PSP version has its own ways of redefining digital hoops. The game is classic five-on-five, but NBA 07 adds something completely unprecedented: turn-based strategy.
