2K SportsThey've got the hardcourt covered as well as the ice, and now Take-Two is getting suited up to take their turn at the baseball diamond. Take-Two Interactive's publishing label 2K Sports announced today a new sports title that's going to blow gamers away with some over-the-top baseball action.

Blending outrageous visuals with intuitive gameplay mechanics, 2K Sports has no doubt that this new title will treat fans to a whole new Major League Baseball experience. It's over-the-top, it's explosive, and it's called The BIGS.

"The BIGS is sure to turn a few heads as it pioneers a completely different way of playing an MLB video game," stated Greg Thomas, President of Visual Concepts, at 2K Sports studio. "2K Sports is always looking to deliver the most innovative and eye-catching sports video games to fans and The BIGS is one of 2K Sports' most dynamic titles to date."

The BIGS, which is being developed by Blue Castle Games, brings great graphics to larger-than-life proportions, featuring fantastic pitching, batting, and fielding animations. The larger-than-life MLB players that gamers get to control can also grab power-ups (shades of NBA Jam, anyone?) that come with outrageous special effects.

Just like all the major 2K Sports titles, The BIGS will feature online play for up to four players. Slated for a Summer 2007 release, The BIGS will be available for the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PSP and Wii.

 » "The Bigs"???

Wow... "The Bigs" I know I've had "the runs" once, those sucked... and that's what this title makes me think of...
So basically we're going to be "treated" to another rehashing of an "extreme" version, this time for certain a sport that cannot get any more "extreme."
Excuse me while I reach for the pepto.
My 2 cents
