CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - Dark Motives

This PC game is excellent. It's better then the first one. I have Miami, this one, and the first CSI game. Miami is my favorite, but I do love them all. They are very real to the show.

Although, I find all the cases in this game interesting, my favorite is "Dragon and Dripping". This is about the murder of a doctor, and the kidnapping and murder of a Komodo Dragon. I had never heard of this animal until I played this game for the first time.

I am an aspiring C.S.I., criminalist, and parole board member. I love these games. Two Thumbs Way Up. 10 out of 10 stars. Keep 'em coming.

Note: I think these games are very educational for people like me who are going to have careers in this field. Thanks!

A video game gives the player to act freely but as computers, this freedom is an illusion and you are forced to walk a path that is plotted in advance: discover it and you can win the game; Don't see it and you are doomed to the iconic statement "Help: I'am stuck!".

Thus, this is the invisibility, this smoothness of the plan that makes the difference: when everything is done easily, you have a good game; when every following task is a pain, a riddle, then get rid of the game!

Here, the game is close to the last category: it asks you to find all particular clues left at a special point of a precise location. As other said, it's become a pixel challenge and nothing else.

Since the start, the game is incredibly difficult: for example, you have to think to look for particular fingerprints in the bike shop whereas there must have been a lot of customers! Awful!

In addition, the tools have been upgraded in worse since the fist game. And the fingerprints or DNA search are silly! As for the cases, there are five: the stuntman, the Indian relics, the homeless, the circus, the theater. Their stories could have been interesting but the cases are too much long and you got as many guilty as proofs so you become quickly fed-up.

A poor game that killed me and that I couldn't throw away because it was a gift!

Although some of these cases are hard they stay true to characters and the work is much like that of a real CSI unit... Very good graphics too. The cheat sites are also almost completely useless unless you have a good grip of the situation of the case and you'll find yourself a little confused for the first few times. Some of the characters are ruder than others and at times you may find yourself fed up with the attitude you get from them but remember it's only a game, take a moment or two to calm down then go again.

This is excellent work. I look forward to working the next cases on the next disk.
