The second case feels a bit childish, although I haven't finished it yet.Teetris said:

The translation is fantastic. Is it the same translator from the first Phoenix Wright game? It has a familiar charm in it that I didn't quite see in PW 2 and 3. The dialogue is as funny as ever though, and it seems that Apollo gets picked on by the court as much as Phoenix did.

This will be mine. I've always loved the Ace Attorney games but my hype level for this hadn't shot up until a couple days ago.

the first case is really strong imo, great job introducing new characters and the new phoenix wright. this is probably the best introduction case ever in the series.
start playing a little bit into case 2, I like
start playing a little bit into case 2, I like
Trucy a lot more than Maya. imo, the design is better, and I like her personality much more than Maya. only complaint I have so far is that apollo felt too much like Phoenix Wright in the old games. his way of thinking, comment etc is just too similar with Phoenix Wright. I actually have a little bit of problem reminding myself that this is Apollo, not Phoenix. although this is probably because I've just played pw3 again not too long ago so phoenix s still very fresh in my mind

Just started case 2
Anyways, Case 1 was all kinds of awesome. The first case in T&T is still my favorite intro case, though. And I'm loving Apollo, I've grown to like him even faster than I did with Phoenix.
stealing panties? Really? :lol

I totally agree, Trucy is way more likable.
She is so cute
and her personality is way more likable. She is like a more sarcastic version of Maya

Aw, why did I decide to get this one online? I've got absolutely no work tonight, and could run over to Fry's and get a copy, but can't since it's already in the mail.

Yeah, the first case is really good.
Hopefully the 3rd and 4th case will be just as good. Like always, they were hinting at a grander story arc.

what's even more awesome is that

Callibretto said:
Agreed.
I just like her quite a bit.
Trucy is definitely better than Maya
Also
Ema is a real bitch, it is a little annoying. I wanted her to get some of Gunshoe's likability since she was his replacement.

So I'm halfway through the first trial of Case 2. And WOW was I surprised. :lol :lol :lol
I'm liking Apollo too, and the role that
has undergone, though I am a bit concerned that his
way of dealing with things has kinda ruined the character.
is a whore. I hate her >_> But she got better when she realised who she was dealing with.
Thoroughly enjoying this one more than any of the others at the moment. No jokes either. Loving Apollo's animations too. The new prosecutor is somewhat boring compared to say Franziska or Godot, but his personality is top notch.

Trucy is pretty much my favourite character in the whole series. She's just so awesome, and when she pulled this trick I LOLed really hard.

I totally agree on all counts.
Trucy
Ema is a total bitch, I was kind of hoping that she would be nice and endearing like gumshoe
Phoenix
he never hooked up and married Iris
The new prosecutor is nowhere near as good as Godot and Edgy, but come on Godot
has some of the best goddamn lines ever put in a game and his storyline was so tragic
was so damn bad ass in Case 4 of the second game and Case 5 of the third game

It's clearly wine though. Glass bottle, it's colored, and they even mention "vintage" at one point.
Also, that first case blew my fucking mind. It's my first Ace Attorney game and that's how I get started. :lol

This is very common amongst all DS games. It's not just the newer ones.
After looking at most of the fan fallout concerning Ace Attorney 4 upon its Japanese release, I was expecting some massive failure on all respects.
However, I'm only halfway through the first case and it has already at least dethroned the introduction cases from the other games (
). So far, I'm liking Apollo pretty much the same way I did when I first played PW1. Kristoph is pretty badass (
), and I actually like
new role.
Sure, the lack of the old characters does kind of suck. But I think I'll probably start to like the new characters just as much over time.

hell, I thought that PW3 walked away with that one after the entire Mia/Dailha incident
even though some pretty rampant leaks when the japanese version was released killed most of the potential thunder with him

There was only a fan fallout with Japan GAF and 2ch. Which shows you once again that 2ch hates everything and that Japan GAF is always wrong

I just passed the 1st trial in case 2, and I have to say this again, Trucy
. oh and I can't believe how much Phoenix
is quickly becoming my favorite character in gyakuten saiban series, she's damn smart, she even make apollo look stupid at times
has been upgraded from last game, I can understand being a legendary lawyer, but Phoenix has also become an expert in reading people that he never lost poker once for 7 years, granted, Trucy help him sometimes, but not always. I'd say by this time, Phoenix has probably surpass any other lawyer in past games including Mia

Wasn't this confirmed a while ago? Even if it wasn't, it should seem pretty clear that this is the case. I mean, if you played any previous games in the series, you would know that Phoenix didn't have a 7 year old daughted, plus, everyone acts so suprised when Trucy mentions she is his daughter. Perhaps
Trucy is Pearls?
Edit : I swear to god people, dont read the spoilers, you'll f'ing regret it.
What the WHAT???
How come an Ace Attorney's very first case is that awesome ? IS THAT EVEN LEGAL,??!!1!1
Man, in the first three games it was always the "funny but tutorial" case, but wtf there, surprise effect to the max. So many mysteries not even solved by the end... And the most WTF-ish of course :
. So unbelievable.
Also I can't wait to learn
I also like a lot the "DS enhanced" look of the game. Beautiful sprites, backgrounds, and 3D crime scene reconstruction is a neat effect.

BETRAYING YOUR FUCKING MENTOR SINCE THE FIRST FUCKING CASE IN THE FIRST FUCKING GAME HE'S IN, damn he didn't last long
And Phoenix thus coming to the mentor's stand is an appreciable fanservice
Also I can't wait to learn
who's the mother of Phoenix's "daughter"

I'm sure there's a connection between Apollo and Trucy's similar power, Phoenix seems
to know something about Apollo, he keep implaying that Apollo have that power from the beginning, brother and sister perhaps?

A little bit in to the second case, my general thoughts:
- It really does seem like they learned their lessons from Trials & Tribulations and applied them to Apollo Justice (hit 'em hard and hit 'em fast), but at the same time,
-
- The game really shows the difference in sound between the DS and GBA. In terms of sound quality, it is leagues better. In terms of composition....eh. Some songs are leaps and bounds better, others I start thinking "What is this, what are you doing."
- It really does seem like they learned their lessons from Trials & Tribulations and applied them to Apollo Justice (hit 'em hard and hit 'em fast), but at the same time,
I definitely see the complaints about Capcom cowing to fan pressure and using the old cast too much. Phoenix basically solved the first case on his own and told you to do the grunt work now and then.

I definitely like the new characters more than the old ones. Apollo feels different from Phoenix. His mannerisms and thought process make him a different character, especially when you put the two side by side. Trucy is a different, and likely better, character than Maya. She feels like that female friend you had in high school and both of you act 15 again when you're together. Ema...hot, but a little too standoffish for my taste. Hopefully the next game is a little more fresh, know what I mean?

actually I think Apollo
feels too much like Phoenix from previous games, and when you put them side by side, they felt different because current Phoenix almost felt like a totally new character.
Trucy though, much better character than Maya.
I think she looks good, and haven't seen enough to form solid opinion on her

Hmm so I've finished the second case's first trial, and boy was it intense, especially
That had me O_O.
As for who I think did it, I reckon it was the wife - though that's a complete guess by me made through the simple assumption that it's always the one you least expect.
As for Wesley?
lol. The parts where he got REALLY angry and stressed had me cracking up.
Trucy's anal probe :lol
