Wow, I haven't posted in *such* a long time.

I'm so excited about this piece of news! I've been waiting FOREVER for a CSI: NY PC game. *twitches* I just hope that my PC meets the minimum requirements to be able to play the game (mine's not exactly the latest model...).

Not to sound like an idiot, but "holiday season" would mean sometime around Christmas, yes? Which would be *really* cool, because I'll be vacationing in the US during the last 2 weeks of December, so I'll most probably be able to buy the game somewhere, rather than having to wait months and months for it to get to Singapore. Yay!

 

Yep, 'holiday season' would be at the end of the year.

I don't know if my computer will be able to handle it, but if I get a new one in the near future, I might pick up the game - I'm not usually into that kind of thing, but it does look like it might be fun.

 

So, this game will be a bit different from other CSI games? We'll be able to play only the roles of Stella & Mac? That's kind of a bad thing...I want to be Danny! Just kidding. But, still, I think that being able to play all character was the best part of those games. Maybe a few actors didn't want to give their voices and they didn't want to use substitutes....

 

Awriight!! Finally! I have all the other CSI games. It's so much fun seeing the computerised version of the characters... too bad it's just Stella and Mac. I want to play Danny too. XD
But in the previous games, we always played as the newbie CSI, so this is a nice change.

Oh, Lessien_Tinuviel, you're from Singapore? I'm Malaysian. Neighbours! Heh. Yeah, it's always tough getting CSI merchandise here. Either they're no where to be found, or they take forever to arrive.

 

And me, I've been wanting a NY game for a while :lol:

 

Hey, neighbor! Yeah, CSI merchandise is pretty hard to find here... I want one of those jigsaw puzzles! I only managed to get it when I went to the US a couple of years ago...and the board game too! But the tie-in novels are pretty easy to find, though. If that's any consolation. LOL.
