PROF. LAYTON HAS A SON?!?!?!
*MINDF-CK*
Ok ok breathe in, breathe out... It really shows that this was another different game apart from the franchise; the art is very different and I'd dare say they just tacked Prof. Layton's last name on the main character (imho he didn't get his father's good looks :P) to tie it to a more popular franchise and get more publicity (it does mess up with the canon I have in my mind though). That doesn't take away that this game looks super interesting and I wish it was available for the ipad. Not because I have one, but my cousin does and I could probably borrow it for a while :D As I said, it doesn't feel like a proper game made with the franchise in mind and it shows, but I'll try it anyways.
Well said, Tony, there's never enough Prof. Layton around! and I mean the father :P

Layton Brothers? Maybe, in some sort of stupid plot twist at the end of the game, after the crazy hentaiphobias have been fapping to Lucy for quite a while now, she reveals herself to be a transgender, and that they were actually twin brothers but was forced to changed to a woman to prevent the total overworld from finding out about her, and then an even worse and crazier plot twist, you find out that your dad isn't Prof. Layton, but actually Luke, Prof. Layton's assistant and that the original Layton was just a madman who thought you were his sons??!!
I don't know. Seems like I just created a new script for M. Night Shamalamadingdong's upcoming movie, though.

Sounds like they're pulling a Sunsoft Mana/SaGa/Final Fantasy name association move here. That was annoying then, still annoying today.
@Oishidesu: Don't put yourself down to his level D:
@CrimeMinister: Well if you like detective/mistery stories, this looks pretty interesting, don't you think? I don't like how obvious it feels that they just tacked the Prof. Layton stamp on it to allow an unknown game to ride the bandwagon of publicity and popularity though.

The biggest mystery will be why Layton gave his son such a crazy sounding name. Alphendi?
Still, more Layton is always welcome, and it's nice to see the series extending it's canon and it's range to other consoles.

Heh only Level-5 could make me buy something for Ipod. This will work on the old ones right? I hate Apple...
Interesting that when retconning him into the Layton mythos, they went with "son", rather than the traditional "nephew". Heck, even "student" wouldn't require a lick of explanation.
We'll see what they plan to do with this.

@skullo - she is the love child of Maya Fey and Luke when they met in that fantasy dimension in Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney.
TIME PARADOX!

Obviously Luke was a girl dressed like a boy so that things wouldn't seem improper & as soon as she hit tentacle danger age, she and Layton had a son.
What I like about this is, since isn't on a Nintendo plattform, now it can be a little more graphiclly violent, which is nice for crime solving game.
I haven't played the most recent Layton game yet, but I'm curious where this son came from. Perhaps Layton meets somebody after the events of the Unwound Future?
This looks good, but I wish they hadn't shoehorned Layton into the title. Firstly if you played Unwound Future you'll understand why it's so perplexing that Layton had a son, secondly his son looks nothing like him. He looks more like the vilian of Unwound Future.
I'm sure there's an explaination for all this, but I'm starting to get the feeling that they're milking the franchise at this point.

The Layton games are low on violence because they are meant to appeal to a wide audience, both young and old; the fact that they are developed for a Nintendo console is completely irrelevant. Just look at No More Heroes, for instance. That games violent as hell and yet it was first released on the Wii.
Personally I think the Layton games are perfectly fine not having blood and gore splashed everywhere.

@Gwendolyn, I suppose I would be ok if it were not Layton branded, but I don't like this idea that there will be franchises that I love moving over to iOS.
@Tony Ponce: I'm glad I'm not the only one lol
@CrimeMinister: Yeah I agree why brand it with the Layton stamp when it's obvious it's not made for the franchise, kinda pisses me off at worst. I'd prefer they not bastardize the franchise (also agreed the iOS port; can't they sell it for the DS?not everyone has an iphone =_=)
