1. This game series is the return of the old-school Adventure genre.
Point and click, you know what I'm talking about. A genre long 'dead' has been resurrected extremely successfully on the DS. And it's awesome.

2. The stories are pretty much the best there are.
These games are about the stories, so they have to be good. And they are. Make sure you play them in the order I listed at the top for full effect. You could play a later game without playing the earlier games first, but you'd be robbing yourself of 1. full knowledge of what's going on and 2. some of the best stories in gaming. Seriously. Game 3 especially will rock your socks off like not much else. (Except one game I plan on writing about later!)

3. The characters are amazing and the best there is.
They range from so worthless they're hilarious to the most badass mothereffers since EVER. I don't think I can come up with a character out of any of the four games that isn't completely and totally entertaining and interesting in some way.

4. Music. It's good.
Seriously. Gorram.

5. Investigating crime scenes is really fun.
It's like you're on CSI only it's interactive and with more puns. (And the puns are actually good!)

6. Going to court is amazing.
Defending people in court is fun!? Who knew? Capcom knew, and they gave us four of the most enjoyable games ever made based on that fact. You have to use all the evidence you found while investigating to come up with the right solutions to try and get your client off the hook. Sometimes it can be difficult, but that only makes it oh so sweet once you finally figure out what to do. You'll feel like L from Death Note.

7. Quite possibly the funniest games ever.
Each game is packed with references to popular culture and just funny crap in general. Some of my favourite quotes ever have come from these games.

8. OBJECTION
'nuff said.

9. The stories are so damn good
Can't say it enough.

10. DS
No johns, etc...

Objection!

Take that!

Hold it!
