Product Description
The ultimate courtroom parody game starring retired superheroes, villains and sidekicks with non-stop laughs. The appeal of the Harvey Birdman show translates directly over to the game, but with an added dimension of interactivity. Players will feel like they're actually taking part in an episode rather than just watching it!

Plays like an episode!,

This review is from: Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Video Game)
Strictly for fans only. But fans, consider buying this. I don't think I've laughed more while playing a game than I have with Harvey Birdman.There are some frustraiting moments, sure... so for maximum enjoyment, I recommend playing with a walk-through close at hand to keep the flow going.

This review is from: Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Video Game)
Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is based off of the cartoon series on Adult Swim by the same name. It is available for the PS2, PSP and the Wii (though for some reason amazon does not currently offer the latter) and all the games are relatively cheap - the Wii version running you about ten dollars more than either of the other two.This game is short. I mean, really short. It took me less than two hours. There's a total of five ridiculously easy cases on the game, with five ridiculously easy things to unlock (usually these are achieved by selecting an appropriately absurd response to questions asked of you during the case). This game is one for the fans and nothing more, if you enjoyed Harvey Birdman on television then you will LOVE the Harvey Birdman game. It's very simple and straightforward. The cases play out in a similar (but much more simplistic) fashion to the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney games for the Nintendo DS. The premise of the game is that you are a Hanna-Barbera character (former superhero Harvey Birdman) and you combat the evil prosecuting attorneys (including Vulturo, Stan Freezoid, and Myron Reducto) in a court of law. The cases are all ridiculous, even including one memorable case conducted in Mentok the Mindtaker's hot tub. The game is very simple and very short, but a lot of fun all the same. If you found humor in the show, you will definitely find humor in the game and it will be well worth your money. If you're looking for something a little more challenging, then this game will sorely let you down.

Harvey Birdman lives again!,
By Brian Reaves - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Video Game)
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! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful

Surprisingly good and fun, for a while anyway,
By N. Durham "Big Evil" - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Video Game)
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.

I want to just rate this item giving it a certain amount of stars but Amazon won't let me do that anymore. I have to put in these meaningless words too. Thanks Amazon!
