So it comes to this. Hundreds of thousands of dollars of loans, thousands of hours spent studying, a decade of college courses, years of residency, and now, we finally get to shoot a laser into a man's brain and kill him. You know, we used to think this "doctoring" stuff was for the nerds, but that was before we learned about how much fun it was to kill people with bone saws. Check out the video below to watch us preform a brain surgery, and to try to remove a man's heart in the back of a moving ambulance.


Want to hang out with GamesRadar's editors while taking a look at retro games, new releases, and totally random experiences? RadarPlays is for you. Mondays we'll be checking out blasts from the past on RadarPlays Retro, Wednesdays we change things up to whatever we feel like playing with RadarPlays Shuffle, and Friday is packed with the strangest titles you’ve never (hopefully) heard of in RadarPlays Freaky. We'll also release RadarPlays for all the new releases, so be sure to check back!
