From the pinball thing:

"Gary Stern is the Godfather of pinball. CSI is the Godfather of crime. 'Mystery'-based pinball is going to be the story telling mechanism of the future. Stern and CSI are breaking new ground," Zuiker said.
WILL THE CROSS-PLATFORMING NEVER CEASE?!?!?!?!?!
 
Everything is the 'wave of the future' to this man - does he expect that the not-too-distant future will involve people reading a page of a book, going online to watch a tie-in clip, then going to play pinball for a clue which will lead to a section of Second Life, which will prompt you to call a phone number for a code, which will lead you back to the internet and then to a secret television station and then to...something else I can't even think of? Argh.
 
Well, I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure that's what I'll be doing soon.

...then again... too much effort :rolleyes:

I'd like to know how he thinks we can all afford this 'wave of the future'. I can barely afford my internet service. I'm a single parent who has to put food on the table and keep a roof over my head and still pay for my cable so I can watch his show!

We're not all rich like him! Argh. Okay! Self-righteous rant over!:lol:

And so now, are we going to get CSI: Pinball Wizard!
 
Well what I'd like to know, when we are going to get CSI: Monopoly

And in stead of a Go To Jail card we can have a Go To The Grave card.
 
if it means that Danny,Flack and Adam are gonna play one on screen,i`m all for it:p
Hawkes and Sid can be the judge and step in to show them how it`s done:lol:
