Concepts, a 2K Sports studio. “College Hoops 2K7 truly captures the authentic
college basketball game atmosphere, enhanced by the all-new Chant Creator and

The unique Chant Creator, the first of its kind in any sports title, allows the

customize in-game chants, including drum percussions, letters, words, mascots,
states/regions, and more.
In addition, over 200 fight songs have been added to further enhance the overall
college atmosphere in College Hoops 2K7, as well as more than 50 new default

distinct sound, immersing gamers even deeper into the emotional atmosphere of

An expanded Coach Mode provides College Hoops 2K7 players a unique first person
perspective through the eyes of the coach. As the coach, gamers can move up and
down the sidelines changing the tempo of the game, call plays and make
substitutions. Adding to the authentic coach experience, College Hoops 2K7 is
the only college basketball title on the market to include the likenesses of
hundreds of actual college coaches—including Roy Williams, Billy Donovan, John
Calipari, Jay Wright and more.
