  1. With an improved co-op and five fresh gameplay styles It's a great new direction for the Trauma Center series and one of the year's best Wii games so far.
  2. With a super-easy Intern difficulty, the accessibility of the controls and the brilliance of the presentation, there's probably no better time for newcomers to jump in.
  3. Diagnostics and forensics may slow down the otherwise exciting pacing of the medical drama, but are not so detrimental as to keep this game from being the best entry in the series so far.

    By combining the story telling and emotions of a tv hospital drama with the fun game play of six different game modes, this is the best of the Trauma series if not a must have for the Wii. The game has independent game play modes each focusing on a different doctor with interweaving stories. Each doctor has their own background with great characterization and specialization. 4 out of 6 of the game play modes are fully co-op which work very well together (though we found the endoscopy lacked a bit). Of the other two, playing the diagnostic missions is like playing the tv show House while the other is like CSI. Each mode is fun and different from the others, as well each mission is different enough that game play doesn't begin to feel repetitive. The story and characters are bright and funny with a good mix of drama that brings all six characters together in the end. This game was surprisingly amazing and I highly recommend it. Expand

  2. This was my first experience with the "Trauma Center" franchise, and it was great. The gameplay ranges from frenzied, intense surgery and first response to methodical, precise endoscopy and orthopedics to logical, mysterious diagnostics and forensics. The story was a lot better than I thought it would be, and the characters are funny and memorable, with some great chemistry (particularly forensics expert Naomi Kimishima and an FBI agent she affectionately refers to as "Little Guy"). Cutscenes could have been better, but they are pretty good, looking like an animated comic book. The music is amazing, and the voice acting ranges from great to okay. Multiple difficulty levels, and the ability to play missions in all six stories when you please, is a nice addition. Definitely pick this game up if you have any interest, or if you've never played a Trauma Center game before. Not sure how this stands compared to the previous games, but I had a great time with it.
