So addicting
I absolutely LOVE this game. I rented it and cant wait to finally buy it. It is very addicting, my boyfriend and i never put it down. It can get frustrating if you cant do something in time. But it is the best game i have. Very Very fun. Would recommend it to anyone!

The best Medical Simulation game out there.
I am a huge Trauma Center fan. I have played Trauma center: Second opinion and loved it! When I heard that Atlus was developing a sequel, I had to buy it as soon as they released it! This game was not a disappointmentat all. The first time I played it, I couldn't believe how much better it was than Second Opinion! It was astounding! Here's a brief overview of the game.

OVERVIEW:

This game takes place 10 years after the events that occured in Trauma Center: Second Opinion, which took place in the year 2018, when medical terrorists were using a virus called GUILT (Gangliated Utrophin Immuno Latency Toxin)to terrorize people all over the world. And a doctor named Derek Stiles, who was gifted with the Healing Touch, had to stop the Virus and cure its victims. Now, in New Blood,10 years later in 2028, there is an even greater threat at hand. Its name is Stigma. It is a very deadly pathogen that was discovered and released into the public by accident. Now, two very talented Alaskan surgeons (named Markus Vaugn and Valerie Blaylock) with the Healing Touch must stop Stigma and save people's lives before they become victims of Stigma Themselves. The tension is on as they preform life- saving operations, in hopes that they can accomplish their mission.

PROS AND CONS

PROS:
This game has really good graphics. A lot better that Trauma Center: Second Opinion. You actually feel like you are operating on someone.The graphics are so lifelike, and there is also the classic Japanese anime- style art involved too.

Awesome gameplay and storyline: This game has a truly gripping storyline that will keep you coming back for more! I could not stop playing it because there was drama and danger around every twist and turn.

Full voice-over Dialogue: In the first installment of Trauma Center for the Wii, Only a few parts of what the doctors and nurses were saying were actually said aloud, the rest you had to read, But now they have actors saying everything that is written on the screen.

Controlls and rumble feature of the Wii remote and nunchuck: The Wii remote has a built in rumble feature, that allows you to really feel the action as you are preforming operations. The nunchuck allows you to select the surgical tools that are necessary for you to successfully complete every operation. The Wii remote serves as your scalpel, Syringe, suturing tool, and ultrasound among other things. You also use thi remote and nunchuck as the defibrillators.

Co-op mode: Now you can play with a family member or friend to help you to accomplish those tricky and difficult operations that you just can't do on your own. You can do operations twice as fast with one other person to help you to finish the operation successfully.

CONS:

A lot of the operations are very hard to complete, even when playing on the Easy setting! But this game is very fun nonetheless.

I would defnitely reccomend this game to anyone who dreams, or has drempt, of becoming a doctor. Before I played this game, I didn't handle the virtual pressure well, and I was really shaky when I held the Wii remote, Now i am not shaky at all! It really makes you hold your hand steady like a real surgeon would have to. This is a really grat game that will shock and suprise you constantly to the point to where you are screaming at the television and virtual characters and in denial at what is happening in the storyline.

I hope that my review has helped you!

Love it.
this game is worth every penny i spent. it's very addictive. having a second surgeon makes it a lot more fun. thanks. great price and delivery.

IT'S HARD!!!!
The tutorials that you go through before performing surgeries often have gaps where not everything needed is explained. Also, no way to adjust the difficulty level to easy enough for some (like myself) to get through some parts without having to do them many times. This lowers the fun factor alot. I never played the first one, but my understanding is that it is easier.

Short, but enjoyable
This game just seems naturally suited for the Wii. Although it is very similar to the first game in the series, the addition of a two person surgery really spices things up.

Gameplay can be frustrating for those lacking in hand-eye coordination, but the varying levels of difficulty are accomodating.

Overall a very enjoyable game that highlights the ingenuity of the wii remote.
