We've got a jam-packed session of review going on for everyone today.

First up, Xequted have got a review up for Law & Order: Justice is Served where it scores 36 points out of 50:

Overall, we would definitely say that the game is a success. Sure it isn’t Halo 2 or World of Warcraft, but it does the job it needs to and still stands on its own really well. If you are a fan of the TV series or are part of the dying breed of adventure game fans (or both), you really cannot go wrong with Law and Order: Justice is Served.

Next there's a review over at Worthplaying of Return to Mysterious Island. They give it an 8.7 out of 10:

What we've got here, really, is a very solid and fun adventure game. It's a little too short, but there's a good bit of replay value, since you score points for solving puzzles in different ways and with different item combinations and every hundred points unlocks some bonus artwork. I also found it rather easy, but that may have been just me. Return to Mysterious Island has a likable main character (who I hope we see more of in the future), a brief but entertaining plotline, and enough clues to keep you moving along steadily when you get stuck. Fans of the novel will get a treat seeing some of the locations described there rendered out in front of them, and people who've never heard of the novel will still find a worthwhile game.

Loadedinc recommends Moment of Silence, giving it a score of 8 out of 10:

Overall, Moment of Silence does a lot of things for an adventure title. It does most of them well, with very few mistakes. For anyone looking for a solid, entertaining, modern adventure game, Moment of Silence is definitely recommended.
