College Hoops 2K7 packshot and details

2K Sports has just announced details on the unique features that their upcoming basketball simulation game, College Hoops 2K7 (Xbox360, PS3, PS2), will have: the exclusive Chant Creator and an enhanced Coach Mode. The Chant Creator is actually quite interesting, so let us go through the details of that feature first:

Chant Creator: 2K boasts that their Chant Creator will be the first of its kind in any sports title ever released. This feature allows the gamer to “control the excitement” of the crowd by allowing them to construct customized chants to play during moments of gameplay. Players will have a variety of customization options to choose from, including letters, words, drum percussions, mascots, etc.

Also, 2K has added over 200 fight songs, new cheerleader routines, mascot dances, new gym designs, and more than 50 default crowd chants (for when you’re not in such a creative mood) you can use to make your team stand out and enhance the college basketball atmosphere.

Expanded Coach Mode: Allows players to adopt a first person perspective through the eyes of the coach. And since you’ll be playing as the coach, you can go up and down the sidelines and change the tempo of the game by calling your own plays. With characters designed in the likeness of real-life college coaches such as Billy Donovan, Roy Williams, Jay Wright, and tons more, 2K says college basketball cannot get more real than this.

We have still yet to play the game (or at least the demo) before we can share with you guys whether these features work well and if 2K was able to pull it off, but ’til then, we can at least give them props for introducing new features for future sports titles, eh? We managed to get our hands on some screenshots as well, and we don’t know ’bout you guys, but the graphics…meh..still need a lot of tweaking and sprucing up. Check ’em out below and click on them for a larger view.

College Hoops 2K7 will be available on the 360 and PS2 on November, and will dribble its way to the PS3 this winter.
