Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (PSP/PS2/Wii)
Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is an interactive fiction game that merges the fun and mayhem of the popular Adult Swim TV show with Capcom’s unique style of adventure gameplay.

Over the course of the game, players must guide Harvey through a series of odd and comical cases. In order to prove his client’s innocence, Harvey must explore the scene of the crime, gather evidence, talk with other cartoon characters, occasionally have drinks with opposing council, and of course, tear holes –no matter how ridiculous - in the testimony provided by the witnesses for the prosecution.
Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, rated T for Teen, for the PS2 ($39.99), PSP ($29.99) and the Wii ($39.99) is now available at retail.
