Emergency Room 2 - Dead on Arrival
First of all, let me say that this is great in concept but no amount of electrical shock will save this puppy. The program itself is extremely frustrating to navigate through. The animation is truly amatuerish. Only the patients mouths move and the movement is grotesque in relation to the head. Even Taco Bell got it better with the dog. I especially liked the father with the kid on his lap. His mouth literally went up to his eyes. There are no navigation instructions, no read me file, no tutorial, and the program does not even support 32-bit color. You have to change (lower) your monitor settings to play it. A decent help file would greatly improve it. So unless you like hacking through a program to figure out how it works, stay away until Legacy Interactive learns that not all users think like their programmers.

Can only be played,if you are a real life doctor.
When i bought this game i was excited to get it. The back of the CD made it look like it would be fun. But i was wrong. I like the way you could use all the things and even go to the food machine and get snacks. But the game play was terrible. Their was not any real good help hints to help you out ,it was hard to know what to do next and when you did fine out where to go the patiant would already be dead (i mean not everyone is going to know what to do when they first play this game) so they should have had more helpful hints.They did have a place where you could go and find out what it was your patiant had and what you could do for it.But you could not understand it one bit... unless you had a Med book to look up what they were talking about. They need to keep in mind that this is just a game,not the real thing,and that not everyone is going to take 8 years of Med school just so they can play it. Not worth the buy. save your money for a better game!

Great Game With A Few Minor Flaws
I'm a 16 year-old aspiring nurse, and I got this game because I wanted to learn more about medicine. As other people have stated, this is *not* a game that you can just start playing and be good at, unless you work in healthcare or know a good deal about it.Some problems that I have with the game:- Occasionally a "patient" will come in with an injury in one of their extremities, let's say a badly scraped knee. When you get into the exam room, you can't immediately tell which knee it is, and sometimes they don't tell you. Because you lose points for performing unnecessary procedures, you are occasionally robbed of points because you check a normal body part first.-Sometimes the CME (Continuing Medical Education) computer gives you bad advice. They tell you that most doctors will perform a certain kind of test, but if YOU perform that test, the game tells you that it was unnecessary.Other than that, it's a pretty good game. When you do well in the exam room, the nurse flirts with you, which irritates me a bit because it means that the maker is assuming that all the players are guys, but other than that, it's fun.There are plenty of resources in the game to help you, so you don't need to be a medical expert to play - just be prepared to put a little time and effort into learning. This is an excellent game for people who are thinking about going into healthcare. Because you can select patients either randomly or by ailment, it's also a good way to study.

I really enjoyed the experience of learning.
I work in a Dr's office and I saw this game in the store and I really wanted to try it out. I got the sample version, but I really want the regular version. From what I got from it, it was the best game on the computer to play. You can really see what the Dr's go through. It is tuff, but enjoyable. I hope you never stop making this kind of game. Thanks for the chance to see what goes on back stage.

Very mixed feelings
I bought "Emergency Room 2" to improve on my medical knowledge and came away with mixed feelings about this game. It does have a wide variety of medical knowledge contained within, ranging from a medical glossary on your "Palm Pilot" in the game to specific details about where and when to use a certain instrument. Therefore, I can't complain too much about my objective to increase my medical knowledge. I can say that the gameplay was average. There is a huge learning curve when you start out playing the game. It isn't clear how to move from one step to the next (ie - interact w/ patient, then bring them in to diagnose) and there aren't any gameplay instructions that come with the game. The patient cases are relatively interesting, anything ranging from a simple "I stepped on something" up to a gunshot wound. Some patients turn out to be plain boring. Others are very interesting and require detailed work, including complete diagnosis, imaging, treatment and "doctor's orders". However, the most important advice I can give regarding this game is that I can forsee most people getting tired and bored with the game very quickly. I believe this would happen by nature because as soon as your are done with one patient, it's back to the waiting room to start the entire process all over again. I gets monotonous. This is why I bring it down to three stars. I played mine for a solid five or six hours one weekend but doubt I'll ever pick it up again; I'll probably default to another game.

Very Different
A very different game, it's pretty entertaning but it can get quite boring when you've already treated the baby that hit her head on a sprinkler a million times. Dr. D. Boss seems like a normal boss, a little nicer than some. I don't know what her name is, but there is this nurse that flirts with you every chance she gets...which is quite comical.Don't order unessacary procedures and tests, or else it will come back to bite you in the end.The graphics leave something to be desired, and it's kind of annoying when you treat this one brunette, 16 year old and once you get done treating her, you go back to the waiting room to select a new patient and she's there again!The same use of charecters makes you feel like you never treated that person at all.It can get a little boring and the patients can get rude, but if you play it in moderation, it will be okay.Good luck to the new Dr. Carter's!
