Looking to cure to those Trauma Center withdrawal shakes? Look no further than Trauma Center: New Blood. With heavy emphasis on ‘affairs,’ Lifesigns is the soap opera General Hospital to Trauma Center’s pulsating thriller ER. Where the latter pulled you from emergency to emergency with frightening efficiency, we find the staff of Seimei Medical University so gossip-hungry that it’s incredible any surgery gets done at all.
In truth, little medicine is practiced. With only a couple of operations per chapter, the surgery is far more muted than Trauma Center’s arcade-y, time-attack sensibility. Nurses hand you the correct tool and you simply follow the instructions. Sure, it looks more gory and realistic, but it plays terribly - a bizarro surgical Cooking Mama.
