Can't get enough of Law and Order - any series

I just happened to be in Best Buy when I noticed this game and immediately snatched it up. It could definitely use a patch for the jerky motions of the characters, including Goren. I would have liked to seen better graphics (like in the Dead on the Money L & O game). The scenery is quite detailed but the characters are not. Having said that, the storylines for the cases are superbly written and it makes me feel like I am watching the story unfold in one of the TV episodes. It will be a tremendously fun game to play and enjoy once the bugs are gone.

Amazon was fast with sending my game to me. I love these games, but the game itself has many issues. The video is really bad. It's not my video card my husband has checked to make sure of that. I have just about every other Law and Order games and also CSI ones. They are the best.

Stick with the CSI games

If the TV show games are your thing then I recomend sticking with the CSI Las Vegas games. They flow better and the stories are far more interesting.

Its fun

Game is fun, but it seems to freeze a lot, and the clues can be difficult to access.

I am personally shocked and very disappointed with this game!! i have all the other law and order games, absolutely love them! play them more regularly than any of my other games and i was really looking forward to owning this one. im not really a criminal intent fan but i wasnt a law and order fan until i played the games now i love it, i was hoping the same could be said for criminal intent but that would have to actually involve me playing it!!!! it is impossible!!!

first when i tried to install it it kept saying there was a package error!! once i got passed that i began playing it, though the different style of this l&O game was intriguing but at the same time annoying as i preferred the original L&O games engine.anyway i got to a few points in the game where gorien would run and stick in an ungoable direction, this happened about 6 times!!!! i found a patch on the net which fixed this, BUT screwed up the navigation on my computer!! it acted like a virus even though its not! i then got to an interview at a bar lounge and the game continually crashed every time i went to get the recipt!! i figured out that if you insert the first disc instead the game began running smooth (well smoother, its still choppy and feels like its about to stuff up any minute!) but by inserting the first disc, i could no longer SAVE!!!!

im pretty dedicated to trying to get games to work, god, there have been so many ive played with problems and glitches or crashes (even the other law and order games crash in the most annoying spot!) but this is just to much!!!, trust me when i say avoid this game like the plague!!! whether
your a fan or not, its not worth spending the money on something that youll only get about 30 minutes of play time with, and there isnt a person in the world that would have the tolerance to endure the crashes and glitches in this game!!!

you were warned!

Needed an exterminator for all the BUGS!

Slap my wrist for buying this game new. I should have waited 6 months. I couldn't find any support online for the bugs and when I finally got everything working, I forgot to turn my virus software off (plus you can't have a screensaver on either & you have to turn off background animations & shadows within the game) and it jacked up my computer BIG TIME. Wait awhile for them to fix this before buying it unless you like being ticked off.

Excellent acting

This game has some really amazing voice acting in it and not only from the tv stars, either. Some of the puzzles were hard to figure out, I think they could've been explained better. Overall, I thought this was a really fun game. Choosing the emotion that Goren asks the question in is a nice touch, something that should've been thought of a long time ago for detective games.

Game is good, TOO MANY BUGS

If you enjoyed the other L&O games, you'll probably like this one too. However, this game has a lot of graphics problems and it's crashed on me twice. I have an nVIDIA GeForce 4 graphics card with 64MB memory, but the game still crashes on me even after I lower the graphics options. When I first got the game I had to call customer support (NOT TOLL FREE) and be on the line with them for over 30 minutes before they figured out that I need to download OLDER drivers for my graphics card.

I got this game as soon as it came out becuase I loved the other L&O games. If you can wait, give them time to fix the bugs and maybe release a patch or two. There isn't even an FAQ on their website for this game yet.

Do not buy this game!! Too many bugs!

I purchased this game recently, and I wish that I had read the reviews first... I have also experienced serious problems with the game. Many bugs... Several(10-15)minutes with a black screen between scenes! I wasted soooo much time attempting to play the game... and then it just completely crashed on me! I would have enjoyed this game if it were not for all the bugs! If it were not for all of the problems with this game, I'm sure that I would have solved all of the cases already... I preferred the CSI games that I purchased last year... and now I have pre-ordered the new CSI 3 game... I hope that there aren't any glitches or bugs like the new Law and Order- peice of crap. What a waste of money!

Huge disappointment

I've played all of the CSI games and the three L&O games prior to this one and, man, was I let down by this. It's a huge resource hog - it took almost 10 minutes to install the thing and it took even longer to uninstall it. When the installation is complete it automatically sends a registration (to whom and with what information is unknown - a major privacy violation) without giving the opportunity to say no. The game play isn't intuitive at all and doesn't follow the same conventions established in the earlier offerings. The PDA thing is a pain in the [...], there's no right-click functionality, limited options in terms of configuration (cannot play it in other than full screen), and NO INSTRUCTIONS! Not happy at all with this.
