Things always shift around so nothing in this post is set in stone and aside from what I post, if you ask me about other games, my only response is "I don't know"

With those caveats, here are my picks:
- Echo: Secrets of the Lost Cavern (Late in the week, puzzle adventure/quest genre that is a Large File (no demo))
- CSI: New York (Middle of the week, this was a large file retail boxed game, but they eliminated one of the 5 cases to make it small enough to have a demo version)

And of course 5 others, but I will let those be surprises as they did not make my top 2 Picks for the week.

Excellent BFG-Guy! They actually eliminated the 5th case from the boxed version of CSI-NY too. It isn't finished yet. Should be any day now. Do you know if folks will be able to add it like we do if we have the Ubisoft download or boxed version?

Ana

Not sure. I would not count on it, but Ubisoft says that the BFG version is a "complete" experience, but that one "case" was not included to keep file size down.

Thanks BFG-Guy. The boxed and original download were sold with only 4 cases also and a promise of a 5th to be completed in January that you could download free. It was still not completed as of last week, with the promise of anyday now. I just was not sure if when the time comes that they actually complete the case if it would be able to be added on as well.

Thanks for your quick response!

Ana

Thank you so much for keeping us posted, BFG-Guy; Echo I have played (a very nice game!), and I'm looking forward to buying CSI: New York from Big Fish.

I love Echo--it was the first game I "reviewed."

Question?

I get so confused sometimes....

Now....Is Echo at BF a hidden object game? ."Meaning" The regular adventure game I played before ?

Thank You

Echo, is Echo. The same Kheops Adventure game you played before.

Here is L4L review.

It's an awesome game!

Ana

OH ..So Echo is a regular adventure game....Ok

Thanks, Ana

Wow - I cancelled my CSI- NY preorder when I found out it was a hidden object game. Since then I have come to love HO games so will definitley be trying this one.

Woo hoo, I did the same as Bella Rosa so its one I will look forward to from Big Fish.
Echo was a great game , I can recommend it.
BFG Guy, you're the best.

BFG-Guy you are so spoiling us, thank you. Suspect I'm going to die a happy pauper

I loved Echo . I'm looking forward to CSI.
BFG-Guy, You are so good to us.

Thanks for the heads-up BFG guy.

I hope one of the others is an IHOG. I wonder if IHOGS are harder to make because they are pretty scarce.

CSI: NY is an IHOG.

Ana

It is???? Wow, OK now I'm excited! !

I personally disliked it very much, but then again I paid 29.99 for it and it was marketed as part of the CSI series adventure games which I love. For 6.99 you'll have fun. I'm still licking my wounds on getting burned.

Ana

I never did buy CSI: NY retail, because I loved the previous games and was so disappointed to hear that it was not the same type of game. But for $6.99, and viewing the game as an IHOG, I'm actually excited to play it! What a strange and unexpected turn of events.

Ouch!
But for $6.99 it may be very good.
I wonder how large a download it will be.

CSI:NY is about 175MB I think...It has a demo and full version.

Paul

Thank you, Paul! I was wondering about the file size, as well. I'm waiting for the game!

I wished that the CSI:NY was like the other CSI's, but I think I will try this on BFG. And I never did play Echo, so that is one to consider too. Thanks BFG-Guy!
