So, let's see if they were able to fulfill that task. The game itself attempts to simulate that narrative style of an episode in the series. Divided into five episodes. In these episodes, we'll play some medical procedures and most of all, a ton of minigames. Choosing from different dialogue and completing scenes is pretty much all there is to this title. As for the story, it could be full of spoilers if you've never watched the show, so it's better to leave it out of this article.
But It does center strongly in the human drama, rather than the medical procedures. Probably when you hear there's a game coming up based in a medical drama you think they're going to just rip off Trauma Center gameplay and add the drama. And that would likely be the best course of action. Atlus's medical game series is based on going through these operations carefully and facing unexpected hardships.
The operations sometimes tend to be a bit exaggerated of course, and there are superhuman abilities involved. But the medical part is fun and rewarding. In Grey's Anatomy: The video game, the medical procedures are over-exaggerated, and way too simple. Not only that but they also represent the smallest part of the game experience.
This odd title about doctors plays as many medical operations as kids playing doctor. Grey's Anatomy: The Video Game is lazy, all the way around. It's tough to find something good to say about it or to even understand who this game is aimed at. It certainly isn't directed to gamers, and it doesn't seem to be directed for the fans of the show. The whole game seems meant to be played by a person who both casually plays games and casually watches the show. This is a clear example of a game that, if released in modern times, would be directly launched only in smartphones and tablets.
If you must watch bad TV, make it Hollyoaks - at least that doesn't pretend it's a quality drama. The game itself - and I'm using the word 'game' very loosely - involves choosing the direction of the episode by finishing various mini-games. That's it. These little gaming vignettes come thick and fast, interrupting what flow there is every couple of seconds. There are a few different types, but they are all beyond atrocious. In the surgery mini-games, one of your difficult tasks is to inject the patient.
Apart from treating patients, which includes performing operations, you get to form relations with colleagues. You often face a difficult choice of either romantic or professional nature. Recommended: Core 2 Duo 2.
I've Never Been more insulted by a game in my entire life. Does something even count as a mini-game if all you have to do is click the mouse and hold the button down for two seconds? If this is what 'casual gaming' means, please shoot me in the head right now so I can avoid having to play the things for all eternity. If you haven't seen an episode of Grey's Anatomy then you'll either be charmed by its shiny, sterilised view of US hospitals or you'll feel physically sick within a few seconds of the vomit-inducing bullshit it serves up as entertainment.
