Limited reviews, but there are about 10 folks posting theyve played
CSI and loved it. It felt 'complete' came up a lot. The pics and
layout impressed most of us already.

BDK- great theme - but game got mixed reviews and skepticism cause of
the software issue.
CSI- not a theme that we jumped up and down about, but game is getting
nice reviews early

FWIW

Fantastic game and I knew right away playing mine it was a hit.
Feels complete and lots to do and is a TON of fun !
The music and sounds are kick ass.
Love the centrifuge multiball music.

There is a some subtle throwbacks to Twilight Zone on this one.
The DMD intro to Microscope MB with the vortexing circles reminded me
of TZ jackpots.
As well as the magnet stopping the ball.
Also the left mini flipper shot similar to the piano in TZ.

It a real nice work and it's a keeper.
It's got just the right amount of toys and is not cluttered.
And it has "REAL" ball locks that you can see your progression.
I like the interactive toys that do something with the player.

Jason,
Does the game appear to have a wizard mode? How is the depth to the
game?
thx

There is no wizard insert so I don't know.
But once all evidence is collected I will find out :-)
Pun intended.

I’ve been sitting by my computer all night long Jason, waiting for
your promised CSI video.

In my best Homer Simpson voice: I’m waiting….

Hate to compare those 2 games.
BDK wins looks, theme, and cool factor.

CSI wins all around software, gameplay, toys, and music/sounds.
I feel this game will be a sleeper hit. Awesome stuff.
It's worth buying and I have not heard one person complain yet.

Somehow I think other then restroom breaks and quick whip out an RGP
response while in the throne room, Jason is too busy jizzing all over his
new game. It might take some time before he gets your video Kim. LTG :)

Gah, with all this good word of mouth so far, I'm actually thinking
"Hmmm...what game would I get rid of IF I got a CSI" ...whoodathunkit.

In case you didn't see my other post. We played it for two hours today
and the game was very impressive!
I have never even seen CSI so I don't know how well it tied to the
series but the gameplay was rock solid for me.

You probably have a nice collection of pins you like. That will be a problem
if you have to get rid of one. Best wishes on figuring that one out. LTG :)

Well right now I have a Class of 1812 at work ....if I did get a new
pin, getting "rid of one" would really mean selling 1812 and bringing
a different one from home into work. :)

This all sounds very positive, which is good news. Any chance someone
could post a photo of the instruction card? I can't find one amongst
the existing pictures.
