PSM3/10[1]

A sequel, called Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling 2 was only released for the PS1. It featured more characters (now including female characters), an easier throw system and many others. It was considered more of an add-on or updated version than a true sequel. IGN gave it an 8.0 but once again criticizing the poor graphics.[2] OPM said that "some things are just not worth recreating on the PlayStation"
