Does not really surpass Trauma Center, but worth the buy if you have the cash.

When I first picked up and started this game, I thought the introduction was fabulous. They introduced everyone vaguely via a medium-length cut-scene which actually turned out to be a dream of the main character, Tendo. Also, the first operation was indeed kind of like a tutorial for both experienced and inexperienced players. However, I found out that the gameplay wasn't exactly same as Trauma Center. Firstly, you have to diagnose the patient via three ways. You can visually diagnose the patient, use your stethoscope or sort of like rub the parts where you deem suspicious of injury, etc. Also, almost no hints are given, except for the accident or patient information. Example, hit on the left body. You are expected to know what to do, like a 2nd year intern doctor Tendo is.
Secondly, there is sort of like a superpower of Tendo, where he "concentrates" and you can see where to cut, slice or whatever you have to do at that time during the operation. Thirdly, there is much more interaction with other characters. Like running around to get keys and getting presents and stuff. That's all I have to type. Well, this being my first ever review on Gamespot, expect very little from this. All I have to say is, if you're finding a game with interaction and hospital stuff, this is for you.
