Capcom announces Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law

by Jared Rea { Apr 13th 2007 at 8:00PM }

Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law to the PlayStation 2 and PSP. This revelation came on the heels of a Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations presentation, so we can only assume that Harvey will follow suit when it comes to gameplay.

For those not hip with the times, Harvey Birdman is an Adult Swim cartoon that stars 60's icon Birdman as a defense attorney for the animated stars. He's defended everyone from Scooby-Doo to The Jetsons and seems to own a pet bear.

Very little about the game was revealed, aside from the fact that High Voltage is developing and their aim is for a release this Fall. The pedigree isn't exactly a shining one, but the marriage of these two licenses has us extremely optimistic nonetheless.

I was excited about this until I saw the developer...this game is gonna suck!

I think I just wet my pants...awesome! Of course, that's assuming the game employs a Phoenix Wright style of gameplay with the Williams Street quality animation/writing, plus all of the Hanna Barbera rights and tie ins.

I can hardly wait to see the grizzly bear hanging out in the back of crime scenes. Hopefully, it will be availabe on non-Sony platforms too or else I'll be seriously aggravated.

Everytime someone says "this game is gonna suck" an angel vomits her eyes out.

I'm having a nerdgasm over this. Does this mean they'll make a Venture Bros game soon?

If this turns out right, I'll finally have a reason to get a PSP.

looking at high voltage's resumé, any hope for this game comes solely from the show's reputation. whether or not the game will translate the show's hilarity or be good whatsoever is up in the air. this goes in the pile along with the aqua teen hunger force and lost games.

Lines like this are so stupid...

"Capcom so damn stupid! They could had brought this to the Nintendo Wii. It would make them more money."

i see no reason for this game to be on the Wii... well perhaps the graphical downgrade from the PS2 version.... I kid, I kid....

But seriously... if it's a matter of money.. it's on PS2.... It dosen't NEED to be on Wii.
