First The Bigs 2 Review

Xbox Magazine gave it a 7/10. I was hoping for an 8-9 range, then again this is only one review.

Absolute garbage... the first one has a overall score of 8.2, and this one is 50 times better.

[Clutch Theory]

I was just talking to Ronnie about this. Ill throw in my input.


It's really quite simple. To those who played Bigs, respectfully understand that it was without a doubt one of the funnest Sports games out there or not. It didn't aim to be realistic, it didn't aim to be a mainstream type of game. It was made to be different, exciting, new, and revelutionary. The fact of the matter is, it most certainly was. To those of you who have played the Bigs 2, understand how great the game actually is. If you played the Bigs as much as I did, you probably fell in love with the animations, the crowd, the gameplay, the players, Legend Mode, pretty much every aspect of the game. The Bigs 2 surpassed that, and I have only played the Demo. It has better animations, quicker gameplay, little tweaks that make the game EVEN better which I didn't think they would be able to do. The added a full season meaning you get to play the 160+ Game Schedule or whatever it is in the MLB on top of the Become a Legend Mode or whatever it is called.. I am mind shot right now with the name.


With that being said, many of you are probably going "Oh look, here is Clutch Theory sucking up to Ronnie again, so he is giving mad love to their games" When that couldn't be farther from the truth. I am not a Baseball fan to say the least. I completely admit to that, but the Bigs is so addicting and so fun, anybody can pick up the game, play it, and fall in love with it. I believe this rating is purely disrespectful. I think they focused more on the games realistic side, rather then the fun and exciting game play 2K was going for with it. Im not going off this rating at all, and I will be buying it the first day it comes out. I recommend you all do the same.. or at least try the Demo and prove to me Im wrong.

don't let one review sway you (and I'm 100% positive we'll be getting a lot of great reviews soon). Try it for yourself....download the demo and you'll see how fun this game is.

I completely trust ronnie when he says it's 50 times better because I know he has the full version already. I love the demo and can't wait for the game to come out. I guess I'm kinda curious what they didn't like about the game. It seems like everything has been greatly improved from the first one. It's still just one review though.

Also, the same people gave the first bigs a 7.5/10 which happened to be one of the worst ratings the first one got. I don't trust em. I'm kinda surprised they gave the second game a worse rating though.

Here's one thing to remember, review scores mean nothing without actually reading the review to see if what was written fits the score. I've read reviews where they talk good about a game the whole time, mention a couple negatives, and then give the game a lower rating. I'm usually like, "wtf? that score doesn't fit what i just read". And I've also read reviews that came across as mostly negative and yet the game gets a good score. There have also been reviews where one or two minor things really, really bug the reviewer and his score seems to reflect those minor things instead of the whole game. And vice versa, with higher scores reflecting one or two good things and not the game as a whole.

So, bottom line, don't let the score alone sway you. Read the whole review. Unfortunately, the only review listed on that link so far is a magazine, so we can't read the review online. But if anyone has that issue, could you either post a scan of the review, or write it here for us? That would be swell. If not, then we'll have to wait for more reviews to come out.

I am very excited for this game and think it deserves a way better rating than this.

[nolemercy]

The game is very addicting and I am having a ball with it. It deserves 8/10 at the very least.

[Ten_titans]

Yeah, *******es were going on realism, if I wanted realism, I'd go for MLB The Show (which I have) but this game isn't supposed to. Thats a BS rating.
