MEDICAL TRAINING
Video game update for playing doctor
The health-care profession increasingly is turning to video games for training.
One, called "Code Orange," helps doctors learn to manage mass casualty incidents by playing a variety of roles, said Lucien Parsons, producer of the game for BreakAway Ltd.
Video games have been found to improve marksmanship among military personnel, said Claudia Johnston, a Texas A&M-Corpus Christi researcher who is heading a Navy-funded project to develop a game to train doctors.
"If you can do that, why can't you learn to start an IV online?" Johnston said.

Bach: MS Ceasing Xbox Development; Halo 3 Will Ship 'When Ready': "In 2005, the video game industry very suddenly underwent a drastic change from its current homogenized state. Nintendo has more acutely differentiated itself from MS and Sony than ever before, but in the coming generation, the two market leaders have created very broad differentiation of their own. Despite Microsoft's continual refusals, it appears as though the PS3 will outclass the 360 in raw graphical/processing horsepower. It is also probably safe to believe at this point that MS's online/community infrastructure will be superior to its competitor's online plans.
It's very possible to imagine a situation where PS3 games would be too powerful to be ported, Revolution games too interface-dependent, and 360 games too Xbox Live Community-centric—three consoles, potentially with three very different advantages. In such a situation, it's easy to understand why Bach has set his sights incredibly high for next-gen's Live penetration."
