It's just like medical insurance - you've got to have it

What kid didn't love Operation? You know, the battery-powered board game in which you used tweezers to yank vital bones and organs from some poor schlub with bad hair and a light-up nose? What a great game. And Trauma Center: Second Opinion is the super-powered, seven-headed, genetically mutated video evolution of that game. It's niche-y and unique and a little gory and it isn't going to be easy to find. But find it anyway, because it's also the Wii's second must-have game (Zelda being the ...

[Wii] We scrub up to go hands-on with one of Nintendo's best ever launch titles

Oct 18, 2006

Wednesday 18 October 2006 Like its DS predecessor, Trauma Center: Second Opinion puts you in the scrubs of a novice doctor learning the ropes, before throwing all manner of splintered limbs, flat-lining patients and glass-pierced colons in your direction for you to fix.

Much like that feeling of leaving a Jackie Chan movie convinced you can cartwheel across a telephone line, Trauma Center: Second Opinion instills a sense of medical mastery that really wouldn't be possible without the Wii remote. Second Opinion is barely more than a remake of last year's DS ... » Read Full Trauma Center: Second Opinion preview

Trauma Center Revolutionizes medicine

Full-size edition of popular DS surgery game to be revealed at E3

Mar 13, 2006

It's a matter of life or death - at least, in the game. Trauma Center: Under the Knife was one of the biggest cult hits of 2005. The Nintendo DS-based surgery game mixes melodrama and tense twitch-gaming. It also is one of the best arguments for Nintendo's then-unproven touch screen system. The DS game puts you into the role of a young surgeon, Dr. Derek Stiles. After a botched operation or two, he begins to question his skills. Soon, though, he uncovers both a mysterious parasitic illness and ... » Read Full Trauma Center: Second Opinion preview
