    I found the suspect/witness interviewing a bit tiresome at times and on occasion found myself wondering who I should talk to next, but then reminded myself that this is a crime investigation adventure where suspect/witness interviewing is a vital element.

    Very linear. You will not be able to progress until something is collected or someone is questioned.

    As an episode, this would be quite entertaining to watch once or twice. As a game, however, it doesn’t manage to get the job done, falling way too short on actual substance and gameplay.

    Given that we have seen the same formula twice before and the Miami crew are a bit dull this iteration is only likely to appeal to diehards.

    The poorly designed game logic, lackluster characters and frustrating pixel hunts are flaws that can’t be ignored. Only dedicated fans of the Miami-based show might find this title worth the price of admission.

    Point-and-click adventures can be great, but more often than not they end up being tedious and mundane. CSI: Miami falls squarely into the latter category, despite the high production values and being so faithful to the source material.
  7. Computer Games Magazine

    The game's dialogue system almost resembles a tree, except you basically just click on any of the questions until they're all gone. Interrogation at its, um, finest. [June 2005, p.58]

    The game is great and the series itself is far more greater. Good game, advanced technology, outstanding graphics, great storyline.

    The game itself was alright, However, it only has five cases in the whole game! It took me a day and I completed the game!

    Another piece of junk from Ubi Soft. Terrible waste of time and money.
