Trauma Team Announced; The-Excel's Heart Stops
The-Excel \| 8:56 AM on 05.29.2009	5 comments

Continuing the tradition of completely ignoring press release traditions, Atlus sent me an email early this morning announcing the next title in the Trauma Center series foretold in blurry magazine scans posted here courtesy of the Genki-JAM. I am told that more information will be released in E3, but the few screenshots included already have me pumped, as it looks to include even more action on and off the operating table. The most notable features touted in the newsletter include play in six different fields of medicine (one of which is diagnostician, lool) and anime-inspired "dynamic story sequences" with "innovative animation". The only thing I'm wondering is what kind of time-defying Satanic superpowers these six doctors will possess. I don't think I need to say anything more other than if you're not signed up for the Atlus Faithful newsletter already, you really should be. Speaking of which, does being collectively referred to as "Faithful" remind you of Stephen Colbert or is that just me?

[Edit]Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the game is due for North American release next Spring.

SteamID: TheExcel ; alias Excel-2010

The world would be a better place if all the leaders of all the great nations of the world would spend a little more time sitting on the potty.

My name is James A. Calwell III and I'm legal. I play shmups, mostly of the horizontal, non-danmaku variety, but once in a while I like to do something different. My personal site is located at http://whatistheexcel.com. I go by a number of names throughout the internet, including:

Excel-2010
Excel-2009
Excel-2008
The-Excel
Exy

No my name does not have any intended connection to Microsoft Excel, Excel Saga, the Exhibition Center of London, the Excel Energy Center in St. Paul or anything else you can think of. Don't ask where it came from; I don't remember and I don't care to. Exy was adopted as a shorthand form from the (female) character of the same name in DoDonPachi dai-ou-jou.

I put very low priority on merit-based ranking systems within large communities, including Achievements, community ranks and leaderboards. I don't get why so many people are conscious about their scores because as one person I will not name here says, I play for fun. The only time I ever pay attention to my score is if I'm playing a shmup or a similarly difficult game and it's used to award extends.

My favorite games include the Gradius series, Darius Gaiden, Picross DS, the Metal Slug series, Twinkle Star Sprites and the bemani games (beatmania IIDX, pop'n music, etc). In other words, I'm not like you and I don't try to be. I respect that you're different from me, except you're not. I cannot believe how ignorant you can be sometimes. Incidentally, if you ever feel the need to get destroyed at Twinkle Star Sprites, just let me know and we can set up a match over 2df.

You're face.
