5.0 out of 5 stars
The best Medical Simulation game out there., March 31, 2008
A Kid's Review
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
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!

4.0 out of 5 stars
Very Fun Game for the Wii, January 7, 2008
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This is one of the first games I've purchased for the Wii, and I'm really happy I got it. It certainly is a game that is best suited with the Wii's unique controls, and it probably wouldn't be as much fun anywhere else.
The heart of the game is the operating, which can be exciting, stressful, tense, and frustrating all the same time. But it's quite a rush when you've got a time limit and some bleeding patient who needs you to hurry up. :) Controls seem to be spot on and are a lot of fun to interact with each patient. I especially like using the defibrillator. While the game can be slightly difficult, I don't mind replaying levels that I've failed.
The only downside I'm seeing so far, are the extremely lengthy cut scenes in between game play. The acting for the stories are very good, but there's just so much of it! Other than that, the game is unique and fun enough to own.
Overall - 4 Stars
Control - 4 Stars
Graphics - 3 1/2 Stars
Sound - 4 1/2 Stars
Fun - 5 Stars

4.0 out of 5 stars
Very Good but Very Hard, November 29, 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
First off, this game is very very difficult, way more so than second opinion. I just beat it on easy and it really wasn't easy at all. That's not to say that it wasn't a lot of fun. I really enjoyed the game a lot and would highly recommend it if you liked the first one.
If you have read any reviews of this game then you know that some people liked it a lot and other didn't like it at all, but the only reason they gave was because they couldn't get very far in the game. I can see how that would be true but really I didn't have too much trouble completing itand having a great time while doing it.
Also I know there is a co op mode that is supposed to be crazy ridiculous fun but I haven't tried it yet. Still, this is very highly recommended and makes me glad I have a wii.
