I absolutely LOVE this game. I rented it and cant wait to finally buy it. It is very addicting, my boyfriend and i never put it down. It can get frustrating if you cant do something in time. But it is the best game i have. Very Very fun. Would recommend it to anyone!

A lot of fun, but probably not for everyone

My wife and I are not serious gamers, but we have really enjoyed this game. Certainly there is a lot one could critique such as the graphics not being stellar, the unrealistic medical scenarios, and bizarre story line that occurs between surgeries, but overall it is a fun game. We particularly enjoy being able to work together during the operations as a surgical team.

It is true that it usually takes multiple attempts to figure out and be able to pass any given level, but the challenge of it is part of the fun. There are some levels where I just dont see how it would be possible to pass them without two people.

In any case, its a pretty fun game and certainly is not gory by any means. Furthermore, being knowledgeable in medicine or having real life surgical experience does NOT give you any advantage in the game. I think just about anybody could play this game and get good at it as long as you have reasonably good hand eye coordination.

Not the best game, but worth your money.

First I'll start off with the negatives. I mean it wasn't the best game out there. The fact that the characters are just anime drawings and their mouths don't move when they talk. Also, the game was very challenging and requires a decent amount of control of the Wii remote, so littlekids may have some difficulty. And also, the storyline was a little creepy and diabolical. I'm not going to give too much of it away but the fact that the virus you fight is man made by a cult/the mob and doctors being kidnapped and such is just a little disturbing.

But now for the positives. For those who've played Second Opinion (the prequel) you know that it's completely silent, unlike in this one where they actually talk. Also the multi player is a huge advantage not only to end the constant switch off after every death ordeal, but also to aid you in beating the game (i.e. you can specialize in what your good at such as you take care of tumors while your friend take care of vitals and suturing wounds). Also, the surgeries are now varied. Although the main focus is the man made disease, they also throw in some common things like broken bones and even a few burns and skin grafts.

So all in all it's not the best game, but I liked it and would reccomend this game because it's worth the money.

Love it.

The game is fun and the operations are real. The dialogs are a little long.

This game is challenging even on the "easy" setting. I've found that it's easier (and more fun) in multi-player mode where you can divide the activities in tandem with another person.

The bad part of this game, however, is its insistence on and amount of time taken up by the inconsequential plotline scenes. It would be nice to have a way to toggle off that portion as well as the nurse dialog during the surgeries. The good news is that, once you've passed a level and want to replay it for a higher score, then you can skip its intro scene.

Overall, though, it's a fun game that's well suited for the Wii platform.

A fun game

This is a fun game. It is difficult. Better play in co-op mode with a partner.

IT'S HARD!!!!

The tutorials that you go through before performing surgeries often have gaps where not everything needed is explained. Also, no way to adjust the difficulty level to easy enough for some (like myself) to get through some parts without having to do them many times. This lowers the fun factor alot. I never played the first one, but my understanding is that it is easier.

the good and the bad - -all good
