Do you love to watch shows like Law & Order and CSI? While several games have attempted to bring the CSI experience to your DS, Crime Scene from SouthPeak games promises to make the experience really come to life so that you really feel like a crime scene investigator, and not a gamer simply playing minigames, with the added bonus that there’s no real blood involved.

Unlike many other similar mystery- or crime-related titles released on DS, this one really puts a focus on forensics. You must not only collect evidence, but you must also process and interpret it yourself. The game promises to utilize the DS to its fullest, as puzzles will have players using the stylus and microphone to help solve various crimes. In addition to using the stylus to find and analyze clues, you will interview suspects in order to determine who’s guilty.

Crime Scene is being billed as a “full fledged crime lab on your DS,” and I have high hopes that it will live up to the moniker that it is no traditional point-and-click game, especially since it looks like you will have a lot more control over everything from combing the crime scene to solving the crime.

The game is currently scheduled for a Holiday 2009 release. Check out our extensive gallery below, as the screens can give a far better idea of what the game will be like than any description possibly can. You can also visit the official game website for more information, and if you know Spanish, you can play a minigame that will give you a preview (the English version still isn’t working).
