Gyakuten Kenji - Great game, or the greatest game?

So I just wrapped up a case involving an in-flight murder and some sort of smuggling ring.  Franziska left me with vague insinuations of a secret shadowy criminal organization, this being only the tip of the iceberg.  What's next, I wonder? 

Then Edgeworth gets a call from someone he knows, saying his son has been kidnapped and please help.  The next case opens with me about to make the ransom money drop-off.  The kidnapper calls me up and tells me to go into this amusement park, into the haunted house.  They finally say to leave the money inside a room there.  And as I'm leaving, a figure starts creeping up on me from down the hall.  At the last minute, I can see that it's someone in a costume of the police department mascot, and then they knock me over the head with a sword.

Edgeworth just woke up in a basement, bound and gagged.  I love this game.
