You see, his name is Jacques Portsman, and if you say the full name in a way that slurs the sounds together, it sounds very similar to "Jock Sportsman."

The pun makes perfect sense; what doesn't make sense is why his name is French when there doesn't seem to be anything French about him. It's a little distracting.

It's pretty much just for the sake of the pun. Kinda like how Dee Vasquez has a Spanish name when she doesn't seem very Spanish.

I dunno, I could definitely see Dee as hispanic. Same with Diego, and Juan.
Though I guess there's nothing about Jacques that says "NOT FRENCH!!!" so it's not a big deal or anything. It's just a curious localization choice, I thought.

Capcom works in mysterious ways.
He could also be French Canadian.

Isn't crow another name for raven, though?
No, they're different.
According to Wikipedia, Rooks, Ravens and Crows are in the same faimily of birds, so they're basically the same, I guess...

Most. Enjoyable. 1st case. Ever.
The music is entertaining and engaging, it goes really well with the game
I love how the confrontation is like a "battle" between two characters, although I sometimes went "Wtf?" when Gumshoe or Maggey were in Edgey's spot XD
I like the new Maggey, but it's like they dropped her IQ a few notches (I found the "I don't know what that is, but I guess I should guard it!" pretty cute)
When I spoke the Payne, and Edgey thought he was a janitor (seriously?!) my first thought was "Whhhhhaaaaaaa?!?! He doesn't know Payne?
"
They don't :c

I loved this case. It`s the first time you get used to the gameplay and it`s really great.
It`s a welcome change compared to that whole courtroom battling in GS 1-4.
I was pretty happy to play Edgeworth who is much more self-confident than Phoenix, that`s also a welcome change. If you present wrong evidence Edgeworth is covering up his mistake liek "yeah ehrm, I just wanted to explain it closer to you" xD
First I was afraid I was petrified xD
Like: How can there be epic battles without a courtroom, but it`s also highly enjoyable even without courtroom.
I think characters who already appeared in the other GS games and don`t play an important role in AAI are only a "loyalty-award" to the fans of the series.

Yeah! For some reason I found it to be a lot more loonger than most, but maybe that's beacuse of all the investigating you have to do. XD

Playing as Edgeworth is definitely a strange feeling, even we could do that in 3-5. The whole new gameplay was fun, and I got used to it quickly. The logic really suits him.
It is a great case to start the game. It was kind of simple and short, but that is what the first case should be like. I lol'd when Edgeworth said "you fail". Reminds me of myself when I said that once in a video I made. XD Portsman was so guilty, but the beginning showed that he is the killer. No doubt. Though, I don't know why he would say all those things to Buddy before he killed him. He was just stealing some info from a case 10 years ago. Or was that the other guy?
Since this is the first case that will connect to ALL the cases, it feels that you are missing something after you beat the first case. I don't like that feeling. But I bet if I play it again, it will be more satisfying.

This case took far too long. It's boring so I kept getting distracted by other stuff.
I think because I played the GK demo, then GK, then the AAI demo, I felt like I'd already played it loads.
I will definitely not be replaying this case.

Anyway, pretty complicated for a first case. Not hard, per se, just convoluted. I do wonder about the second thief, though

Maybe that's because the real truth isn't revealed in that case.

Yeah right. Even for someone who had already played it, it would take, minimum, 30 minutes. Without counting all the text-skipping.
Also, 'I believe the proper phrase here is, "you fail."' is now my favourite Edgey quote.

Why can't a Frenchman be French without sporting a beret, mustache and/or hatred for the

Fix'd. They used to be allies to the Scottish when there were wars between Scotland and England.
Oh, and for a first case I liked this. It was a good introduction to the rest of the game.
