Have you played Boiling Point? Or Vampire: The Masquerate - Bloodlines? Or Knights of the Old Republic 2, even? All of these were buggy (the first two still are). Believe me, there are a LOT of buggy games out there, and I'd be perfectly prepared to argue that adventure games, on the whole, are actually less buggy than their bedfellows.

I'm not saying, incidentally, that Law & Order isn't heavily bugged - it is, and I still haven't been able to get the demo working. But in the grand scheme of things I'd say adventures are pretty good. And those bugs that do creep through are probably do to lower levels of testing for the game than, say, Half-Life 2 probably received.
