I have a lawyer friend that happens to have a DS on her. Being the PW nurd that I am, I suggested she play the game. I thought she would get a kick out of it because, well, she's a lawyer, and Ace Attorney is a flipping amazing series. The moment I showed her a few snippets of the gameplay she said something along the lines of:

"Ohh no, I don't want to play something that looks like work."

:lol:

So, have any of you guys tried introducing the Ace Attorney series to a person working in the industry of law? Lawyers, prosecutors, judges, members of the police force even. How did they take it?

My mother works in law and i showed it to her. She was playing the second case of Apollo Justice and that particular one takes prabably the longest in the whole series to start of with all their chit chatting about nothing really relevant. Anyways, she got really bored and quit saying that it takes forever and she didnt have the time. But...she did help me solve the Terry Fawles case when I was stuck and she told her work friends about it and they said tehythought it was pretty cool but unfortunately they dont have ds'. :( so maybe ill try again one day XD

Even if I met a lawyer around here he'd probably be the Hammond type.


Although I might show my mom(doesn't work with law or anything)and make her play 2-1. :yuusaku:

I got my mom to play it once, and she's a lawyer.... She stop playing it after a few minutes because it broke too many real-life law rules =\

Haha, I guess that's a rather creative way of going about it. xD

Nope. Perhaps I should. :P
