Surprisingly good and fun, for a while anyway

Fans of Adult Swim's Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law can rejoice: Capcom's video game take of the show isn't terrible one bit. Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law pretty much follows the gameplay path of Capcom's own Phoenix Wright handheld game series, only with the Harvey Birdman license. For fans of the show, you'll notice how great the game looks like the often hilarious series, and you'll also be pleased to hear the voices of series regulars Gary Cole, John Michael Higgins, Peter MacNicol, and Lewis Black are here reprising their roles from the show (sadly though, Stephen Colbert is nowhere to be found), and the overall game is quite funny and entertaining throughout. The biggest drawback of Harvey Birdman though is that the game is a breeze to get through. Even if you've never played the Phoenix Wright games, you still won't have too hard a time getting through the game's point and clicker-style cases involving familiar characters like Reducto, X the Eliminator, and Mentok the Mindtaker. As a whole, the Harvey Birdman game isn't really about gameplay as much as it is about fans of the show enjoying taking part in what is basically an interactive episode of the series, so the game is worth picking up for said people. All in all, the Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law game is a surprisingly good video game adaptation of the Adult Swim series, and its a fun diversion while it lasts.

Harvey Birdman lives again!

After the sad ending of my favorite Adult Swim cartoon, I was glad to get into this game. I was afraid they'd try some strange CGI effect to make a 3D Harvey Birdman, but instead they kept the game perfectly in line with the series. As a matter of fact, my wife sat with me for almost five minutes before she realized I wasn't watching an old episode. The voices are the same, and some of the gags on here are hilarious. It's not a complicated game in the least bit, and unfortunately it won't take you long to burn through it. Still, you do get five cases to try.

There are five unlockable movies you can watch, but they are just collections of various show moments (showing every "I'll take the case!" or Bear cameo spots, etc). Beyond that, there isn't much in this. The replay value is almost nil because there's really no deviation you can take to make it come out differently. The only reason you might replay it is to unlock any movie you missed (though it's hard not to get them all in the first go through). Still, the quality of this is like getting 5 new episodes of HB, and that makes it worth playing! I hope they bring him back again soon...or build on the idea with a Sealab game!
