What The Bigs is

The Bigs is a sport game developed by Blue Castle Games and released in 2007. It was published by 2K Sports. It is available on PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Wii, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 2.

The premise, in the publisher's words

The BIGS is an arcade-style baseball game that is less focused on the intricate details of the game and more on the actual gameplay, proven by the inclusion of power-ups and turbos during gameplay. All 30 teams from MLB and their stadiums are included, as well as their player rosters. Instead of a traditional season mode as in many other baseball simulations, in The BIGS there is a mode titled Rookie Challenge, where the player creates a ballplayer and tries to lead him and his team to the World Series. Another mode, Home Run Pinball, puts a hitter in the middle of Times Square, New York, with the aim to hit balls into windows and neon lights.
