Grandaughters love it

I bought this for my grandaughters. They both love it. One has aspirations to be a doctor. She has fun pretending she is a doctor. The other grandaughter is one year younger (7) and likes to keep up with the older one. They have fun playing this together.

I know it is a little bit expensive, but the girls thoroughly enjoy it.

This Game Is Frustrating

I love the idea behind this game and it's pretty impressively exectuted. I had three gripes though: 1) It's so fast paced that I found it really difficult to progress past the third procedure. 2)I couldn't get the magnify and reduce (with quick little circles) to work. This caused me great frustration. 3)There's no way to skip through the seemingly endless pages of character dialogue if you have to repeat a procedure a couple of times.
I quit playing it pretty quickly.

A classic.. too bad it's discontinued

this game was great. hard, but a lot of fun. i'm disgusted to see it discontinued though. oh well, I guess the video game industry does need more FPSs afterall.

New to DS and games in general.

I recently purchased a DS and this was the fourth game I bought. I wish I would have saved my money or purchased a different game. The characters are annoying and even though I perform the "so called skills" as they instruct you to, I can't seem to get past certain procedures (which adds to my frustration). Bottom line, unless you like to be annoyed - SAVE YOUR MONEY.

Truly original and fun.

Trauma Center is one of those games that seemingly came out of left field and just rocked me. It's use of the DS stylus is truly original and was so successful it's now being emulated with the Wii.

This game is a must have for any DS owner.

trauma center is anything but trauma

This game is by far one of the best titles on DS. The controls are very innovative and the game is the perfect combination of easy and difficult. The game might not be fun for younger gamers, but adults will surely love this title. No DS fan should miss this.

At first I thought " A surgery Game! Thats absurd!!!" But Atlas Suceeded in puttin the Hesitatation and Fright of Real surgery into a tiny DS chip. This game is great with it's cool anime style, interesting operations and a new fictional Disease. The game is 80 percent realistic with a couple of impossible things. The first half of the game is a breeze but when you start operating on GUILT Disease victims it gets way too tough. The Coolest Mission is number 4. This game is Great for Wanna-be Doctors and kids with Medical Interest.

DS + jobs= good? TEH HELL?!

This is a really fun game. It's got quite a lot. Graphics, length, characters, story...
Graphics: 8/10 Dayum! Reminds me of Dating Sims...But, nice. The characters are crisp and have the special ingredient known as anime eyes!
Sound: 7/10 The voices (or lack of) are nice. The scolding of the nurse is kinda funny. The music isn't that nice...Theirs only about 4 different music thingys and I only liked one...The one that plays when doing normal GUILT
Story: 8/10 I wish I could've done normal surgeries for awhile before encountering a super parasite thing based off of the 7 deadly sins...
Controls: 9/10 It's the DS...Touch, drag, touch again. Pretty simple...
Overall: 9/10 A nice game that's easy to understand and hard to master. But this is NOT a game for kids. The blood isn't that bad and there isn't that much gore, but it is a very hard game to beat! And there's a suicidal patient which my mother didn't really like =\

Limited Game

Though Trauma Center is an interesting game for the DS, I would not reccomend you purchase it when there are so many other games that are more involved.

Trauma Center involves you being a surgeon. You perform different surgeries on people.

The game falls short in many areas. For one, I found the difficulty to be a little too high. This is because you might not figure out which tool to use exactly until it's too late. Even then, sometimes the characters will talk at the top of the screen and say things moments before you need to do them. You have the special power to slow down time when you are performing. Sometimes they will just screwm out to you to use this power, and if you don't your patient dies within seconds.

Another thing, sometimes the game becomes more tedious than fun. Even if you know what to do, it can be annoying to have to do the same 6 steps over and over.

I would reccomend that you buy Animal Crossing if you are looking for different.

get your scapels, its time to operate!!!!!!

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!! this game rocks. it is a perfect game for me because i want to become a neuro surgeon when i get older. the game will be complex to those who dont understand medical terms. not a prob for me. even doctors will enjoy this game. for once in one japaneese game there is a button to automatical skip dialog!!! no more reading for 5 minutes!! but, if u have the time, do read the dialogue. it is a deep story. very realistic. all organs look great.
