That's awesome. Maybe Trauma Center can help me become an ace surgeon?

That is really something else. Just hope he didn't tell the people he saved that his skills came from a game. I know that would make me feel more than a little uneasy.

thats something i need to get done, learn first aid. if someones bleeding all over the place id probably faint or run away.

Why would you learn first aid if you have a fear of blood?

Thats like me learning to roll tobacco and I dont smoke

Incredible! I was really hoping this would be about Trauma Center, but even if AA is an advergame of the worst kind, it's wonderful to know that it saved a life.

Trauma Center works better for people who are already saving lives. Link

I actually learned a little first aid just because of America's Army.

er, i was thinking mainly cpr and basic stuff that didnt involve massive amounts of blood. who knows, maybe in an emergency situation ill be able to handle it? the training sim probably wasnt heavy on spouting blood, but it sounds interesting. i at first through it was a marketing tool but it seams like its better then that.

That's pretty cool, but I'd be freaked out to learn this if I were the injured people.

Re: Gamer saves lives with no medical experience... wait, what?

I actually was in the army for a short time, and have played the America's Army game, and the first aid training was the EXACT same for me and the game. So i can see where it would be useful.

The only think missing in the game is the hands on exercises where they have you practice on a dummy.

That depends. How is the game's AI?
