    Advantages Advantages Good fun at playing CSI

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too Short and Easy

    Ok heres one of the other games I have really enjoyed playing lately - CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (notice my penchant for TV based games LOL) GAME PLOT Not really much of a follow through plot for the game but basically you have just joined tha Las Vegas Crime Lab Night Shift as a junior forensic investigator (otherwise known as the rookie lol). You will join Grissom, Brass and the team in helping solve 5 crimes. TOOLS As this game is purely investigative you are issued upon your introduction with a range of tools to help you catch those bad guys lol Throughout the tutorial you will be ... more

    Advantages Advantages Exceptional graphics, Voiced by CSI actors

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too short & Too easy

    “We’re the number two crime lab in the country. We solve crimes most labs render unsolvable. So what makes you think you belong here?” - Captain Jim Brass CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is the shiny new PC game from Ubi Soft, based around the highly successful TV series of the same name. For those of you unfamiliar with the programme, let me explain: my review of the game will make a whole lot more sense if you know what CSI is all about. Admittedly, it does not take the brains of Sherlock Holmes to figure out that it is crime programme, but CSI is far more than just your average whodunit. It ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great visuals, atmosphere, interesting cases, good interface...

    Disadvantages Disadvantages ... gets very frustrating at times, a couple of continuity problems...

    Crime Scene Investigation is the first game based on the popular TV series of the same name. I've not seen all that many episodes (yet), but I've seen enough to know that it's one of the smarter detective dramas out there, and certainly with its use of techniques such as actually following a bullet's eye view (if bullets had eyes) into the body in great detail, the most visually arresting. Having had a so-so reaction to the "Law and Order 2: Double or Nothing" game, I was a little dubious but nonetheless the game looked interesting. Featuring all the main stars of the show (thus making it a ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easily available in shops; cheap to buy; exciting to play

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Has 3 discs in the pack; takes a while to install; no instructions on how to save a game

    This certficate 16 PC game is based on the original TV series. It was released in 2003. We have all the characters from the series including Gil Grissom. The characters and voices sound very similar to the actors playing them, so it's fair to assume they allowed their likenesses to be used. THE GAME The game is pretty much what it says on the box - you are a new CSI member, investigating crime scenes, as part of the Las Vegas forensic team. You've been thrown in at the deep end a little, as you have to start on the nightshift. You have to try and find who you think has committed various crimes ... more

    Advantages Advantages A thinkers game

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Only five levels

    Ubi Soft Age 16+ Bought from Gamezone, £19.99 each or 2 for £30. Requirements – 98/ME/2000/XP, PII 300 / AMD K6-III 450, 128M RAM, 8MB Direct X, 4x CD, 517MB HDD. Graphics – very impressive, though quite harsh lines and boxy on some of the detail when you're zooming in. Playability – if you love crime books and crime series, then this is great. Makes you think like a CSI and put to use everything you’ve learnt on the series! Content – obviously dealing with murder and the details of murder, so a 16+ recommendation is more than fair. Nothing too gory, though more than a suggestion. ‘Concentrate ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great Graphics, voiced by real actors, and very similar to the TV Show

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too easy perhaps, crimes are too short.

    I had never heard of the TV Show or the PC Game of this before I walked into a music store one day and saw it. I'd always liked detective games and that, so I looked at this and it looked like just the game I liked - so I bought it and sure enough I wasn't surprised. The specs needed to run this game are: 98/ME/2000/XP PII 300 / AMD K6-III 450 128M RAM 8MB Direct X 4x CD 517MB HDD minimum The full game takes up about 1.5 Gb. To those of you who do not know, CSI is Crime Scene Investigation from Las Vegas, out to solve crimes using lots of nifty tools, a scary pathologist, and a very cocky lab ... more

    Advantages Advantages You get to be a CSI! Good gameplay. Real Voices.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May deprive you of your sanity at points. Not enough cases.

    General Premise: Basically you have to solve crimes that are not what they appear. It would be pretty boring if they were! You have to look closely at every facet of the crime scene gathering evidence and detecting things that are not initially visible. After accumulating evidence and incriminating so and so you are then able to bring them in for questioning and eventually, you will catch the bad people and lock them away. So what’s the story here? The Plot: You’re the newbie CSI being thrown in the deep-end and hopefully you’ll turn out better than the television show’s newbie Holly Gribbs ... more

    Advantages Advantages It's based around the best series ever!!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not long enough..

    The game Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) is based around a drama series about a team of forensic investigators in Las Vegas. The series is solely about the science and methods used to solve a crime and bring justice to those who have broken the law. As an amazed fan of the TV show as soon as I saw this game being available I didn’t hesitate to go out and buy it the next day. Being a part of CSI becomes a reality in this game to be able to work with Gil Grissom (head of CSI) and each of his CSI officers, Catherine Willows, Nick Stokes, Warrick Brown and Sara Sidle. You will also be working ... more

    Advantages Advantages Fun, easy to play

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Addictive, cases are very simple, once you've solved them there's no more!

    This PC game is an excellent buy. I bought it secondhand, and was extremely pleased. The likenesses of the characters are excellent, and using the original actors' voices only enhances the effect. The game is addictive, however, I found myself spending many a weekend staying up gone midnight to try and finish "just this one case"... The game consists of 5 seperate cases, and you work with a different member of the team in each one. So rest assured you'll get to partner your favourite character. The game comes with several handy options - you can have the tutorials on or off, and you can also ... more
