A good job, and a lot of fun. These games just get better and better!

Game play is smooth and intelligent, except for the irritatingly small number of saved game slots. Writing and acting are both topnotch, with three of the actors from the series doing voice work. Graphics are good and have improved dramatically, to the point where the characters' expressions match the emotion in their voices. Puzzles are mostly well-integrated into the plot; a few are a little unlikely, but since none of the puzzles are too difficult, I'm not going to fuss.

The time and space constraints that made the first two games so frustrating are completely gone, and you no longer have to choose whether you want to be smart or fast because you can't be both. It's really refreshing to see a game series that takes out the bad and leaves the good stuff -- thanks, guys!

Well worth your time whether you're a fan of the show or not.

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Law & Order: Justice is Served (CD-ROM)

I have been playing adveture games for years and was a big fan of the Law and Order show when the first of these games came out and was really impressed by that game. Of course there were some kinks, which is why I like this game the best in the series.

Just like the first two games, this new one does a great job of capturing the feeling of the show. The graphics are realistic and I loved that they use the voices of the actors on the show for the characters. It makes you feel like your in one of the episodes. I just wish they had used Sam Waterson's character. It took me about 14 hours to finish Justice is Served, mostly because there are more puzzles. (This game seemed longer than the last two.)

I've played other mystery/detective computer games before, but I think the Law & Order series is the best of the bunch!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great story and a good time!, October 22, 2004

I played the first two law and order games, and this one is by far my most favorite. The graphics look really good and I got totally wrapped up in the story. I'm not really into sports (...) Lots of intresting puzzles and there are many creepy suspects, so I had to keep guessing who really did it. The other detective on the show Ed Green is in the game too, so I liked that he was there. I wished it was easier to figure out how to get search and arrest warrants since I got a little stuck a few times. But I figured out there were some hints and I got help! ;-). If you like the show you will really have fun getting to solve a case yourself like I did.
