The Weekend Rental: CSI: Hard Evidance.

Non fans of the hit CSI TV series need not apply here, as it’s basically a video game adaption of the Las Vegas night shift CSI’s hunting for guilty criminals using the powers of science. Shockingly, even fans of the TV series may want to stay away from this boring game as well. It basically breaks down to a combination of Myst and pixel hunting, as your constantly moving around your curser to find a potential hot spot in the crime scene and use your proper CSI collection kit to collect the evidence.

The graphics are certainly nothing special and some of the cast members don’t even come close to their actual real looks. At times you’ll be wondering if some of the CSI’s have been doing Crystal Meth as their eyes seem to bulge out of their head and there jagged polygons that make up their heads twist the normal perception of what a human should look like.

About the only plus this game has is its easy achievement points, you can easily beat the game in about a day and rack of 1000 gamer points the first way though, but it is almost not worth it due to the amount of boredom you have to endure to get them. Stick with the show.
Save your weekend rental on something else!
