Patricide? You guys haven't been watching Star Wars again have you?

As a Law & Order fan, I'm liking what I'm seeing and I'll grab this game when it comes out for PC.

Thanks! Yeah, there have been so many great detectives and attorneys over the years. It was really hard to pick. I thought a long time how to fit Bobby Goren into this season... we shall see...

And yeah, Tjibbbe, that episode will be chockful of father/son conflict. And in the end, Jack McCoy becomes a Dark Lord of the Sith. Aw damn, gave it away.

This trailer has me rather excited, which is unexpected.

I have watched some L&O episodes, but never really got into the series. But the concept was neat, and that is obviously transferred to the game. Also, this is the one type of adventure adaptation where "losing" actually makes sense. It's quite often that in modern TV courtroom drama series, the lawyer protagonist is allowed to lose the case - because he's been played, because personal matters have impaired his ability, because an impractical US law prohibits him from presenting that one final evidence or because it might become evident during the prosecution that the defendant is in fact innocent. Some of these endings are shocking, but mostly make for a satisfying ending of a TV episode. I am curious as to whether this might work in an interactive medium, where "winning" must be perceived as a far stronger impetus for the consumer. Watch your endings there, TTG!

This is also what might put the "You don't have to be a gamer to play it" into context. You're making decisions in a story, you don't necessarily play to win.

Graphic style: I'd say it's a win. This is obviously mainly designed for the mobile devices, so some limping is to be expected. Something still strikes me as quite not right in the trailer, but I can't really say what it is. Something I can name is that the choices presented block the entire screen. Ahhh, don't do that in the PC version, please. I know that mobile enthusiasts are enamored with getting their fingers everywhere on the display, but we PC players want to see a bit more of the characters during conversations.

Whoops, post was longer than expected. Gottago.

I wonder of the PC version will have a collector's disc.

With a action figure of Jack McCoy! Pull the string and he says such great catchphrases as 'Objection, your honor!' 'Did he make the plea?' and 'Someone's poisoned the water hole!'

And of course, "Hey no baby, I don't use rubbers, it's better bareback."

How do you get the In Game Purchases of the other episodes on Law & Order Legacies for the iPhone?

*RyanKaufman* · 01/13/2012, 12:30 pm

From the Episode Menu, swipe to either right or left. You can purchase the whole enchilada for a bargain price (The Multi-pack) or single episodes as you wish.
