    I suspect that you would be better off renting the game if you are unsure, as the evidence suggests that you might be a little disappointed with the game once you put your finger prints on it.

    The suspects often feel interchangeable and the science of CSI becomes a bit redundant in video game form. A nice effort, but one that fails on Xbox.

    CSI could have been one of those rare point-and-click interactive gems on the Xbox - since we rarely get many of those - but due to its considerably flawed design, poor graphics and simplistic trial-and-error puzzle solving, this one will just disappoint fans of the show.

    On multiple levels, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation fails miserably.

    This game isn't going to blow you away with graphics or intense gameplay, but if you're a fan of the show, its worth at least a rental.

    Very basic and linear but yet surprisingly addictive.
