Introduction:

 

This game follows in the exact same footsteps as the other two Xbox 360 CSI games. It is a point and click game with a few mini games thrown in. The great thing about this game is there are no collectibles, because the whole game is generally a collectible hunt anyway. You also don't need to worry about difficulty related achievements because there is only one difficulty setting. The only mildly challenging achievements are the 100% achievements and even they aren't that difficult.Overall this game is an extremely easy 1000http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.jpg.

 

Breakdown:

 

I will break the achievements down into steps to make it easier to follow. I will explain every missable achievement below, the rest of the achievements will unlock as you progress through the story. Here is a video walkthrough if you need it: Walkthrough (Thanks goes to GamerFusion for the video walkthrough).

 

Step 1: Menu based achievements:

 

To get the three misc achievements, Reading is Fun, I Like to Watch, and Under the Hood, you need to do these three things, open up the PDA and watch a video, open up the case file, and visit the options menu. Please see the achievement guide for further details on these achievements if needed.

 

Step 2: Missable story related achievements:

 

There are six missable story related achievements which are Not up to Code, Scavenger Hunt, A tough job,"Sunday,Sunday,Sunday!","He said, She said", and Smoke the Hive. For Scavenger Hunt use this guide here. Some of them are more easily missed than the others like Not up to code, Scavenger Hunt, and Smoke the Hive. Here is a list of all the story achievements which are missable for each case.

 

Missable story achievements:

 

Case 1: Not up to Code

Case 2: Scavenger Hunt

Case 3: A Tough Job, "Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!"

Case 4: "He Said, She Said"

Case 5: Smoke the Hive

 

Please see the achievement guide for further details on these achievements.

 

Step 3:100% skill, thoroughness, and cunning achievements:

 

I recommend case 2 to get these achievements, this is because you can get the Scavenger hunt achievement as well without going out of your way to get it.To do this use this guide here. Once you do your first skill related mini game e.g DNA comparison, do it perfectly and you will start at 100% skill. Every time you mess up your percentage will decrease, so always check it is 100% before saving. Cunning uses the same principal, when you are told to provide evidence to back up your statements, your first successful attempt will make the cunning statistic 100%. To make the cunning and skill achievements easier, make sure you save before and after everything you complete that effects the cunning and skill statistics.

 

For the thoroughness statistic you need to collect every bit of evidence and make sure you process everything fully. You will also need to look around every location, including the CSI lab. Make sure you look down the corridor of the CSI lab as this will add thoroughness percentage to your total. This is the only statistic that starts at 0% and works it's way up to 100%. Skill and cunning are both dependent on the number of successes compared to attempts.

 

Conclusion:

 

You should now have all the achievements, if not you can replay any case to get the ones your missing. Thanks for using this achievement guide and road map, and congratulations on the extra 1000http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.jpg.

You will unlock these achievements by simple completing the 5 cases in the game. Here is a case by case video walkthough that may help you out: Walkthrough (Thanks goes to GamerFusion for the video walkthrough).

 

General gameplay tips:

 

 

  • Press http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/rb.png to skip dialogue if you are looking to complete the game quicker.

 

  • If you are going for the 100% achievements you can always save before performing a certain task, and try out all of the options available to you, and when you find the correct option for the job such as the correct DNA sample, you can then load up your previous saved game and use it without penalty.

 

  • Make a back up save in case you make a mistake on one of the 100% achievements and you accidentally save over your previous saved game.

 

  • The game will tell you when you have fully searched an area by an on screen prompt saying "Location searched". It will also put a green tick on the location.

 

  • To move around locations faster use the :rs:to move the camera instead of moving the screen with the :ls:.

 

  • If you get stuck at any point during a case read you emails they can provide useful hints on what to do next. To do this click on your PDA, then click on case file, and then scroll along to emails. There will be a yellow marker on the case file icon if you have unread emails. Reading emails has no bad effect on any of the achievements.

Find enough evidence to destroy Beatriz Salazar's drug empire.

To get 100% thoroughness you will need to visit every navigable area in a certain case, you will also need to check that you have got every bit of evidence and that it has been processed fully. To check this click on the PDA and then click on the evidence icon, if you have processed the evidence fully it will have a green tick on it. You will start off at 0% thoroughness and work your way up to 100%, when you have 100% thoroughness you have found every available location and processed all of the evidence. Some evidence cannot be processed and will remain unticked, but don't worry it won't contribute to your thoroughness percentage. Look around the CSI lab to get at least 8% thoroughness, even going straight down the corridor will add to your thoroughness percentage.

 

These achievements do stack, so getting 100% thoroughness will get you the 65% and 90% thoroughness achievements as well.To check your thoroughness percentage, click on the PDA, and then go onto the case file, and then go to statistics.

I hate CSI games, but they are easy as grandma's chocoladepie.

 

Peace Out!
