This 'New Blood' will be stale by the time it reaches Europe in August 2008. :indeed:

 

Seriously, it will be exactly the same-time frame, then this years Second Opinion, that was release holiday 2006 in US and we're getting it summer 07.

 

My god.

Yeah, I was just about to say. Even worse though is the fact that they assess the market viability of the product on the success in the States and Japan. So they wont even decide whether to publish this until it does well over seas. How messed up is that?

IGN Review:

 

Closing Comments: (...)

 

Games like New Blood fit the Wii almost perfectly, and even after blowing through two full games during the system’s first year we’re still asking for more, as there’s simply no denying the franchise’s motion/IR appeal. We could write volumes on why this game works, but it wouldn’t change the simple fact that it just does, so rather than read about the game you’d be better off grabbing a copy (and a friend) and just diving into one of the best pure gameplay experiences Wii has to offer. Trauma Center: New Blood is the best in the series, and a must-have for any Wii owner. Buy it, love it, and then beg for more.

 

Score Breakdown:

 

8.0 Presentation

Better than the previous version with 16:9 display, more VO, and a crisp storyboard style. Could still be improved greatly, but improved nonetheless.

 

7.5 Graphics

Widescreen adds to the visual style, and while the game looks very similar to last year’s effort it makes use of more backdrops and locales, and more “levels†to operate in.

 

7.5 Sound

A huge improvement in both amount and quality of VO. The general sound design is similar, but also offers a larger soundtrack.

 

8.5 Gameplay

Gameplay remains virtually unchanged, but new tools and techniques add depth. Co-op mode is awesome, as are the new story-less “challenge†stages.

 

8.0 Lasting Appeal

Online rankings make an appearance this year, as does the ability to play three difficulty levels (that really change the experience), two doctors, co-op, and challenge missions.

 

8.5 OVERALL (Great)
