Those out for some light and funny PC games, this might be the one for you. Codemasters has just unleashed an epidemic called Hospital Tycoon.

This might feel a bit like playing with the characters of "General Hospital". Wouldn't it be fun to manipulate Doctor A to like or hate Nurse B? In Sapphire Beach Medical Institute, you're the medical director and you're in change of staff, patients, and basically everything else. Certain members of your staff and patients as well have different relationships and you can explore their different plotlines as you go along managing the hospital.

You can upgrade your medical equipment so the hospital will be able to cure different diseases which will also bring fame to the hospital. Weird diseases are not an exception - there are even diseases called Exploding Sneezing (a sneeze would allow a patient to levitate due to force) and Monkey Nuts (you don't want to know).

Anyway, each person in Hospital Tycoon has a unique personality which can be... well, toyed with. We'll stop right there so we don't spoil the fun for you. Deep Red Games' and Codemasters' PC video game was released a couple of days back which retails at US$ 29.99 (SRP).
