Real life surgery
I've got nothing but respect and wide-eyed admiration for surgeons. With robot-like steady hands and the concentration level of a memory athlete, surgeons carve us up, sort us out and stitch us back together without batting an eye-lid. But think about the responsibility! One mistake and that's it - say bye-bye to life. A mere sneeze, slip or cough could result in a horrible and gruesome death. Do you want that kind of responsibility resting on your shoulders? Didn't think so.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion
Now we're talking - not only is Trauma Center: Second Opinion one of the Wii's best games, it's also one of the best games featuring "something we'd rather do on the Wii than in real life", which is lucky really, considering the subject matter of this Versus. You play as the cocky 26-year-old Dr Stiles, who just loves to show off by saving the lives of his patients. It's your job to carefully use the Wii Remote like it's a real-life scalpel, react to complications and beat the clock. Realistic it is not. Fun it is. The best thing? No-one's going to die by your hands - it's just a game kids!

Verdict
Who wants the responsibility of having to save lives in real life? Not me. I don't want all those complications, all that blood squirting on my gown and all that puss dripping everywhere. All I want is to sit in my comfy chair at home and pretend to save lives. Call me a coward all you want, I don't care. As far as I'm concerned, this is one profession best left to the, er, professionals.
