The show has been running for what seems like forever on NBC. Now comes a game.
Medical games are a rarity. In fact, the last one I can think of was the Life and Death series from the late 80's. A
game which was fun purely for the variety of ways in which you could kill patients. I never met anyone who played the
game properly. There was occasional attempts, but usually, if they actually lived to make it into surgery, we'd pump
them full of everything we could find, and start writing our names with the scalpel.
Relive those great times, and kill patients like a real pro, in ER: The Game.

I used to love playing Theme Hospital, although, I have no idea how old it is.

I played Life and Death properly. Of course, I also learned that I'm a terrible gastroenterological surgeon, but that much is to be expected.

Man, Life and Death was classic. Way too hard to play right, and so much fun to just cut the dude all wrong.

For those who liked or (more importantly never played) the Life and Death games there a very, shall we say, interesting write-up on it over at Home of the Underdogs (http://www.the-underdogs.org/).
