Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Serenade” (Apollo Justice – Case 3)
“Turnabout Serenade”, the third case of “Apollo Justice”, has a bit of a sour reputation in the Ace Attorney fanbase. Some see it as a perpetuation of the infamous “third case syndrome” while others, such as myself, used to rank it as middling relative to the rest of the series.

Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Corner” (Apollo Justice – Case 2)

EURO 2024 – Every Nation’s Tournament Graded
I can’t believe how quickly EURO 2024 has flown by. My, it only feels like yesterday when England played boring football against Serbia. And Denmark. And Slovenia. And Slovakia.
