My little brother of 11 years bought this and i was pleased that he did because he wishes to be a doctor when he is older. So i thought this would be good fun practice. Altogether this game is really well thought out and well constructed. Its very different for a start and should be worth a look if your interested in trying something new. This game in short: a bit of text telling you the patients symptoms and a bit of a background story followed by an operation. The operations are good fun.......while they last. It varies from stitching, slicing, pulling out glass and becomes more complex with lasers and ultrasound. So naturally this is where i begin to point out the bad parts of this game. The graphics are nice but not much different from the DS version of the game and well because this is a surgeon sim don't expect it to be easy. However if this game wasn't hard it wouldn't pick up the urgency of real surgery also this game has fast pace!
Graphics: All look pretty decent but not really much difference between the DS version. Anime look is a nice touch.
Gameplay: Really does pick up the feel of being a surgeon from the urgency to the amount of operations you must perform. Only downside is the replay value and having to repeat the same things is each operation, can get a bit boring.
Sound: Pretty nice would have been better with a bit more dialog.
Story: Well this game has a bit of a story but i didn't really feel that interested in it. Overall: A nice game and a step forward for Simulators. Only real problem is it gets boring pretty fast. Great fun but if you don't like hard games you may not like it but i recommend you at least give it a rent.
Score: 7/10 recommended
