First off, this isnt a sim in ANY way so if your after that just turn away. If your a fan of games like NFL Blitz or NBA Jam or even The original Bigs than give this game a shot.

Easy to get into and play but also some depth once you start to learn the game, you can save your "boost" meter for a instant Homerun or add some zip to your pitches and throwing arm in the field and even add speed to your baserunners making them track superstars.

Graphics are big and in your face, colorfull and vibrant they really make the game feel nice and Arcady. The "Pinball" mini game is back and its still a really fun way to pass the time. For those that dont know what it is, you basically pick a batter and hit baseballs into signs,cars,flashing lights in a downtown setting to score points. The more points you get the harder the pitches you get tossed at you. VERY FUN!!!

Overall, if your a baseball fan but dont have time or patience for games like MLB 09 The Show or MLB2k9 than give this a try, games are fast and really full of action and some high scoring games. Give it a shot!!

For a person who has never played The Bigs or a baseball game at all I was a little nervous about renting this game. WOW was I glad I did this game was great. Where to start I mean the game play was super the controls were very easy for a beginner like me. The cool features they had like the Legendary catch was crazy.
The Pinball baseball was cool it was different and I've never seen anything like that before. It was a neat feature,because if you don't like fielding its a great thing to learn how to hit and just play for fun.
The Become a hero mode was good as well it didn't just take place in the US your created player went to different places and worked his way up. The big slam and Big blast is very cool I enjoyed playing with features like that because it gave people a chance to come back. There are not many flaws in this game if any. I could play this game for hours on end it never gets old especially when your playing online.

I give it a 10 of 10 and I hope you enjoy this game as much as I did Thanks
