Well, yes and no. As was the case with all the other CSI/Law and Order/Random Police Procedural games released over the past decade, the game is not only easy as hell, but rarely — if ever — rises above the standards of a mediocre flash game.
And yet — it’s not all bad. I’ve done my research, I’ve played the demo, and I think I’ve come up with some compelling reasons that CSI Miami: The Game may be worth your time. What are they? You’ll have to hit the jump to find out.
Story:
Drive byā¦Miami style. You donāt spend a thousand dollars on clothesā¦that youāre never gonna wear. Was the mob sent to draw us to the crime sceneā¦or sent to destroy it? No need nowā¦the verdict is in. Frank, it turns out that the waveā¦is not the only thing thatās about to hit Miami.
You know what they say, Frankā¦speed kills. Till now. You doā¦if youāve got something to hide. Listen, umā¦I donāt want you to worry about it, all rightā¦Mister Colemanā¦because Iā¦Iāll be your memory. So they brought the war to us ā now weā¦are gonna take it to them.
Or maybeā¦he got taken for a ride. It looks likeā¦somethingā¦caught her. So our accidentā¦is not an accident at all. So that makes this a seizure kit, and Mr. Whitleyā¦a liar. So we have a victim who started the weekend big man on campus and ended itā¦dead on arrival.
Or the cause of it.
Gameplay:
Youāve gotta move quick. The tide is risingā¦and we have a sinking crime scene. On the contrary; thereās a chance this guy is alive, and weā¦are gonna find him. Mister Seaborne, you are about to loseā¦your five star status. Frank, you better move quickly because right nowā¦Iām your only suspect. Frankā¦itās a killer.
Alexā¦Miamiā¦has a new breed of criminal. Iā¦am gonna get to the truth. Yes he does, Frank; he alsoā¦has murder one. Thatās what happensā¦when worlds collide. Yes, and itās timeā¦to hit back. I donāt knowā¦but he just got mine. Alexā¦that justā¦narrowed us down to one.
Yes, Frankā¦a dead bodyā¦can have that effect on you. The verdict is in, Frankā¦but the jury is out. Wellā¦they found more than that. All weāve got is that phoneā¦sheās either dead or dying. So if he didnāt diveā¦he was pushed. All exceptā¦her last one. You help meā¦and Iāll help you. Join the club. Jessup, run! But theyāre notā¦gonna get away with murder. Yesā¦everythingā¦but you, maāam.
Weāre going to Brazil.
