This game is fun for the first 10 challenges. Then, it is pretty much impossible. I have had this game for two years, and I am still stuck on the level where you have to rescue 5 patients in 10 minutes. It is impossible! I hope that if they re-make the game that they make it simpler.

good game if you like these kind

i bought this game for my wii when i first got it, and i remember playing it and liking it until i got to a certain part that make no sense. so i thought that for the ds it would be a little different. as i was playing it, things didnt react the way the were supposed to and therefore i would fail missions or get a crappy score. then i had the same issue as i did with the wii version, i got to a part that they dont give you any instructions on and you cant get past it because you have no idea what your supposed to do. so this game is good and bad!

Speed is more important than precision in Trauma Center: Under the Knife. It's not a game I want my surgeon to play. We thought the game was fun for awhile, then the speed and skill level required became overwhelming. The soap opera story line was more irritating than inspiring. Unless you are a really good gamer, the diagnosis for this one is terminal.

This Game is great!

It was a great game. One iaaue is that the difficulty is random. One level is pretty easy abd the next becomes hard.

When I first got this game, I was really excited about the concept of an operating game and the first few surgeries were great... until we get to the freaking virus... @_@ To be honest, I was counting on the game getting harder with terminology and technicality, not by trying to mutilate and poke increasingly faster moving bugs.

Too much talking! There are times when I caught myself just gunning past all the mundane dialogue just to get to the surgeries. I am NOT a big fan of text heavy games, unless the conversations are interesting or at least animated! I realize that polite society causes us all to do the "Hello, how's the weather?" thing, but do surgeons really spend so much time playing nurse?! And since this is clearly fantasy, that's all the more annoying! I'm thinking that all in-game dialogue EVER should be able to be sped up or skipped altogether. Sometimes, people just want to get to the action!

My last complaint is the sometimes asinine sensitivity of a task. When you're working on a screen this small, there has to be some allowance for minute error. I mean, even my usually careful handwriting looks like crap on a slick surface... but the technology will only improve with time. Okay, my randomly affectionate cat doesn't help matters...

Overall, the series has some potential but I'd much rather have a more realistic game that actually teaches usable medical terminology and lets you combine brain power with surgical technique. I imagine I would REALLY suck at the Wii version-- I can't imagine trying to follow lines I'm not touching with a stylus.

Overall, this game was a disappointment. I swore like a sailor and it wasn't even worth it! Although, I still like to poke at the first few surgeries from time to time. coughhinthintcough

ok im the kid who reviewed on the 13 of feb. at that time i loved this game. not saying it is bad just saying that it does get repeditive. i put this down last week and have no rush to play again! the deep story line gets shallow by the 10 operation this is an ok game and will not dissapoint at a low price. all it is you may ask is talking about your physicodic german assistant who thinks that thinks of you as hitler to jews and african americans. but she may love you in the next mission and hate you the next.

Sounds Great, So want it!

I like this game,sometimes it take me more than a day to figure out how to solve the procedure. its annoying. It gets 4 and a half stars from me just because. I do get excited when I'm am able to get it right.

Trauma Center:Under The Knife is a very innovative and out there game. Its tons of fun and has an excellent replay value. Now thats the pros,so here are the cons. For one, this game has too little stories devoliping. Secondly,the main infection of the game called GUILT,doesnt appear until two hours later(and the game takes 3 and a half hours to beat!) Lastly,this game can get extremmly fustrating and hard,leaving you wanting to take the game card and step and pound on it. This is a rent,not a buy. DS owners can live without Trauma Center.

GRADE:C
