I'll learn so much from this, I can't wait to try it out in the <i>real</i> world!
The "Virtual Learning Space" - where you virtually learn, but actually don't.

I'll wait for the news headlines on that one.
"Hundreds surgically altered! Video Games to blame!"
"Boy kills thousands during illegal surgeries, says he saw it in a game!"
etc.

and we'll savor every moment
"Boy shoots an elderly woman, then tries to remove the bullet and apply bandages by rapidly poking her."
Edit: I forgot the part where he blames it on video games, but I'm too lazy.
no first you have to sit in a waiting room for a few hours, then operate for 10 mins, and spend another few hours filling out the paper work.
One thing that's always bugged me in games is that being a 'healer' isn't very involved... I've always wanted to play around in a system where you have to treat wounds with appropriate methods and whatnot. Admittedly I'd prefer a more sci-fi/fantasy/ninja themed game for it but I'll take what I can get :3
<b>edit:</b> who wants to play doctors and nurses with me? ^~
YUS!
and you say I have a dirty mind!
oh, and this would be realy cool to play with.

Because we all know shocking someone with a defribulator (however it's spelled) is the cure all we've been looking towards for the last nine centuries!
Cancer! SHOCK IT OUT.
AIDS? SHOCK IT OUT!
Parkinsons? SHOCK IT OUT!
Stupidity on battlefield? Work in progress.
