How to unlock the Retro Times Square Master achievement in The BIGS 2 - Definitive Guide

Firstly, to unlock the Retro Times Square venue, you'll need to complete Become a Legend mode.

The strategy for this stage is a little different to the other homerun pinball stages. At first you may think it's difficult to achieve a large score, but it's worth noting that the New Years Ball that you hit with a Big Blast can only be hit twice: the first time will only net you 20,000 points. The second time however, it will be worth 100,000, so try and get yourself a 4x or 5x multiplier before hitting it.

Generally, you need to start hitting groups of lights, saving the last light in each set until you reach enough points to start a Big Blast. Then start hitting those saved lights to start a bonus, and try to get a high multiplier before activating the Big Blast and hitting the New Years Ball for a huge pile of points.

If you've got this far with the other stages, you shouldn't have any trouble here.

This venue is unlocked when you complete Become a Legend mode. The best way to score here is to hit the New Year's Ball a second time. In order to get to the New Years' Ball you must first hit the Blue Castle logo with Up+B 6 times (hit it three times, then wait for it to light up again). Then get a power blast and swing with Up+B to hit the New Year's Ball. Now charge a second a power blast and try to get a multiplier active and hit the ball a second time, it will be destroyed but the hit is worth 100,000 (so upwards of 600,000 if you have a big multiplier) which makes it easier to get the 1,000,000.

To achieve this trophy, I recommend using David Ortiz or Manny Romirez as a pitcher.

So, let's start the game. A list of everything you need to knock out to get the maximum number of points"

1) BCG sign (11 o'clock direction, 10K)

2) Blue Castle (right in front of you, 10K); You can knock it out a second time and get another 25K per word.

3) Faux Pas (in the direction of 1 hour, 10K).

Later, you will need to knock them out again for bonus billboards to appear. The best one is in the 2 o'clock direction, but to hit use

You will have a Big Blast later and don't waste it. Next we knock out this:

1) Red neon "Regal" sign (above BCG sign, 30K)

2) NYEB New Year's Ball (above pitcher, 30K)

3) The top of the building (appears after hitting the New Year's ball, 20K)

Now the main thing. When you hit these targets a second time they explode and disappear BUT the New Year's ball gives you 100K after the second hit. Therefore, I do not recommend spending Big Blast on these goals unless you have a 3x, 4x or 5x multiplier.
