2K Sports releases first screenshots from The Bigs

While being slated for a summer release (Gamestop lists it currently as 6/1 which essentially means unknown date) very little has been revealed about the new game from 2K Sports The Bigs.

What do we know about the game right now? We know it is an ‘arcade’ style game in the mold of the now retired MLB Slugfest series. We know the focus is on improving your created player or team of players and not a franchise type mode. We know it will have online play for up to four players (yay!). We know its coming out on the 360, PS3, Wii, PS2, and PSP.

Now we get a look at the game and it appears to be shaping up really nicely. It does have that Slugfest look to it with the comet trail off of batted balls and super-jumping outfielders. Thats what you would expect from a game like this. The graphics appear sharp and bright presenting a fun environment to play within.
