Grey's Anatomy video game on the way

You can imagine two things happening with Ubisoft’s recent announcement that Grey’s Anatomy: The Video Game will be released in early 2009 for the Wii, Nintendo DS and PC: sales of Wii consoles to soccer moms (swooning for McDreamy, natch) will rise and serious gamers will grumble.

The games release to Nintendo platforms means gamers can count on needing to muster some dexterity for surgeries in the vein of the popular DS title Trauma Center: Under the Knife and it's Wii remake TC: Second Opinion. The Grey’s Anatomy game also looks to offer more of a storyline than previous incarnations of surgery games. Ubisoft has given assurances that it will feature an all new Grey's storyline that will be interactively unfolded as players take on the roles of their favorite TV doctors to influence the direction the drama and hospital takes.
