Trauma Center's only flaw is the not so long story mode, but the feeling and challenge it gives will last long enough
Trauma Center will put you in the story of Derek Stiles, a young surgeon with a special talent that (as with every hero) will find himself up against something bigger than just normal routine,,
Operations work (of course) uysing the stylus, choosing your tools and using them on the patient is incredibly simple, and the controls are very responding.
The game presents a story mode and a challenge mode, that you can use to go through past operations for a better score. Although the story mode isn't the longest, the challenge it gives is more than enough. In fact another flaw of the game might as well be it's difficulty, towards the end of the game it becomes just to difficult. Although challenging is fun, it might get stressful at a point, and that's not fun at all!
Graphics and sound both integrate well, although you might get tired of the repetitive sound track.
In the end, Trauma Center is a great choice, it creates an incredible atmosphere the makes you feel right there in front of the patient, and that's something that few games can achieve.
