Originally a bonus case added to mark the Nintendo DS release of the first game, “Rise from the Ashes” sees Phoenix and Edgeworth battle in the courtroom once more to take on their toughest challenge yet. I have a thing or two to say about this one … so it’s time for a comprehensive DeepContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Rise from the Ashes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 5)”

Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Goodbyes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 4)
Originally the final case of the first game, “Turnabout Goodbyes” saw the DL-6 Incident come to its conclusion in dramatic manner. For many, this is the case that first displayed Ace Attorney’s immense storytelling capabilities – but will it hold up to an intensive Deep Dive? I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categoriesContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Goodbyes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 4)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Samurai” (Phoenix Wright – Case 3)
“Turnabout Samurai” is easily the most controversial case in the first Ace Attorney game – most think it birthed the infamous “Case Three Syndrome”, while others (including myself) find it charming and harmless … but will it hold up to a intensive retrospective? I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Samurai” (Phoenix Wright – Case 3)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Sisters” (Phoenix Wright – Case 2)
After a fairly standard tutorial case, I was ready for Ace Attorney to truly wow me. While it didn’t accomplish that (for reasons I’ll explain shortly), it was certainly a step in the right direction – albeit a small one. Like with how I reviewed The First Turnabout, I’ll be evaluating the merits of “TurnaboutContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Sisters” (Phoenix Wright – Case 2)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The First Turnabout” (Phoenix Wright – Case 1)
Since Ace Attorney 7 is taking longer than I thought, I’ve ended up going back to the classics for a sort of nostalgic retrospective. I love this series so much, but the original trilogy still holds a special place in my heart – so that seems the best place to start an (un)official Deep Dive!Continue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The First Turnabout” (Phoenix Wright – Case 1)”

I love the Ace Attorney series, and I especially love some of the mechanics … not the people that fix cars – the enhancements to trial and investigation gameplay. There are ten unique Ace Attorney mechanics by my count (not including general investigation & trial contradictions). How would I rank them all? Before we begin,Continue reading “Every Ace Attorney Mechanic Ranked (Top 10)”
“Conflict of Interest” – Cases Ranked / Review
After playing and loving “Contempt of Court”, I decided to play the other renowned Ace Attorney fangame – “Conflict of Interest”, itself inspired by the former. It got off to a shaky start, but I was thoroughly impressed with it by the time the final credits rolled. Before I give a quick review, let’s rankContinue reading ““Conflict of Interest” – Cases Ranked / Review”

I wasn’t expecting to ever make this review, but “Contempt of Court” – an Ace Attorney fan game – impressed me so much that I knew I had to talk about it.
