"Hold on. I'm in the middle of surgery."

Bought two DS games today: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and Trauma Center: Under the Knife. The latter of which caused me to utter the quote in my subject line. My brother gave me the strangest look because of it, haha. It seems I'm a pretty decent surgeon. Out of the 4 procedures I've done (ranging from tumor removal to suturing up lacerations) I've gotten two C's (Rookie Surgeon rank) and two A's (Senior Surgeon rank). I think keeping the scalpel steady is what I have the most trouble with. Damn you shaky hands!

The cookie(s) of the day for Food Network's "12 Days of Cookies" were Booze Balls. XD I laughed unnecessarily hard over that.

Don't you hate it when you get junk mail that looks suspiciously like legitimate email? Its annoying.

Note to self: Look for this book: Thank You and Ok! : An American Zen Failure in Japan By David Chadwick, ISBN 0140194576

Trauma centre is good? Maybe I'll pick that up in the newyear...

Well I think its a good game. ^_^ The storyline's entertaining even if its a bit on crack (Surgical powers inherited from a Greek god? WTF? XDDDDD). You use the touch screen to perform the surgeries (with a lovely nurse who'll yell at you if you screw up) which I think is pretty neat. Quick reflexes are a MUST in this game or else you'll be doing operations over and over again. (At least they let you retry if you let a patient die...which happened to me quite a few times ^^;) But really, once you get over the learning curve performing the different procedures becomes easier. Buy it! Its a lot of fun!

Hmmm...I don't think I did a good job at pimping out this game so check out the review for it (http://www.gamespot.com/ds/action/traumacenter/review.html) over at GameSpot.
