It’s time for the second game in the Great Ace Attorney duology – “Resolve”! I, like many other Ace Attorney fans, consider this to be one of the series’ masterpieces … but let’s take it one case at a time and start with the first case, “The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney”. I’ll be deconstructingContinue reading “Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney” (Case 2-1)”

After two cases which dragged the pacing down, “The Adventure of the Runaway Room” finally kicks things up a gear. This is where “The Great Ace Attorney” begins to find its footing. I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving a score out of ten for each.

Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Great Departure” (Case 1-1)
Not too long ago I finished my “Ace Attorney Deep Dive” series for the main entries, but recently I’ve found myself wanting to dive back into one of my favourite gaming franchises.

If you’re unfamiliar with myContinue reading “Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Great Departure” (Case 1-1)”
“The Evil Within” – Every Chapter Ranked
While replaying “The Evil Within”, a horror classic, I was struck by just how different each chapter was.

Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Countdown” (Dual Destinies – Case 1)
We’ve entered a new era of Ace Attorney – Shu Takumi is no longer the creative force behind the games, and for better or for worse that led to a fresh take on the Ace Attorney canon with “Dual Destinies”. The first case, “Turnabout Countdown”, certainly kicks things off with a bang. I’ll be deconstructingContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Countdown” (Dual Destinies – Case 1)”
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure – “Phantom Blood” Episodes Ranked
I’ve been trying to get more into anime recently, and one of the ones at the top of my list was “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure”.

Its first case “The Lost Turnabout” has aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Lost Turnabout” (Justice For All – Case 1)”
