  1. It’s our favorite baseball game of the season, even if it’s really just an action game dressed up in pinstripes.

    It’s a great party game and a lot of fun with friends, and would be a great deal of fun for a baseball-savvy gamer or someone looking to dip their toes into an arcade-style sports title.

    The Bigs 2 on Wii isn’t a bad game, it just isn’t nearly as exciting or fun as its cousins on PS3 and Xbox 360. Many of the features – Big Heat, Big Slam, wheelhouse zones, legendary catches – are still intact, but it was clearly a rough conversion to Wii controls.
  4. Like a middling baseball team, The Bigs 2 provides a fun diversion for those lazy Sunday afternoons, but it's unlikely to hold your attention all summer. [Aug 2009, p.90]

    Great game, with tons of improvements on the already incredible arcade style baseball game. One of the few games I would consider worth the 60 bucks.
