Ace Attorney = Real Life Lawyer Training?

Okay… this is just bizarre. First, you need to go read this article over at Kotaku and then come back here and laugh with me. Okay. I’m giving you 2 minutes. If it takes you longer than that, go back to school.

Are you back?! Isn’t that hilarious?! Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney… a video game… being used in law school to teach lawyers the way they should treat their clients? OH MAN. What does that say for lawyers?

Or maybe this is a good idea. Maybe this will help get lawyers back into what they were originially made to do - fight for the better good of people without taking any money for it! Okay… I know, the last sentence was funny, but it be awesome just the same!

I loved this article. And some how, I’m not surprised!

    Hey Amber, I just finished Trials and Tribulations. It’s FANTASTIC, but you really need to play the previous games. I just realized that there’s a huge story arc spanning all the games, so while there’s a brief background given in part 3, you won’t know all the details.

    The last case, in particular, kept referring to previous cases.

    Hey Mike! Thanks for the suggestion! I started with the first game and am loving it so far.

    That was hilarious, xD
    But at least the games DO offer some stuff/situations to think about.

    Even so… I’ve always been waaay into them,,, that after a while I actually start thinking of myself as a pro (lawyer) XD

    same with trauma center ..XP

    Can’t wait for the apollo one ^.^

    Serenity - I want to yell “OBJECTION” just about every other word out of someone’s mouth.

    It’s kind of like after playing Grand Theft Auto, you want to steal everyone’s car. At least that’s how I feel. hehe!
