We’ve made it – after thirty cases of Deep Diving, we’ve finally reached the most recent cast in the mainline games as of the time of writing this post. “Turnabout Time Traveler” is a special case added onto “Spirit Of Justice” … so is it as special as it claims to be? I’ll be deconstructingContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Time Traveler” (Spirit Of Justice – Special Case)”

Every “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33” Game Award Ranked By How Deserved They Were
For the first time in my life, I stayed up until 4 a.m. to watch The Game Awards – mostly in support of my favourite game this year “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33”. You can imagine how happy I am that it won the most trophies in Game Awards history! This game won nine (!!!) awardsContinue reading “Every “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33” Game Award Ranked By How Deserved They Were”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Storyteller” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 4)
Alright. I’ll be honest with you all. Usually when I write these brief introductions I keep my opinion out of it and try to keep specifics vague, but this time there’s no point hiding it – “Turnabout Storyteller” is pointless. It’s a meaningless murder case near the end of “Spirit of Justice’s” runtime. It’s aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Storyteller” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 4)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Reclaimed” (Dual Destinies – Special Case)
“Turnabout Reclaimed” is a DLC case for Dual Destinies that sees Phoenix and Athena investigate a murder at an aquarium. There are pirates, penguins, and singing orca … but just what on earth happened at the Shipshape Aquarium? I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving a score out of ten forContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Reclaimed” (Dual Destinies – Special Case)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Academy” (Dual Destinies – Case 3)
Phoenix Wright and co. go back to school – by invitation, of course. Phoenix is due to give a defence seminar at Themis Academy, but in classic Ace Attorney fashion something goes horribly wrong. I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving a score out of ten for each. This will giveContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Academy” (Dual Destinies – Case 3)”
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)”
Which JoJo Stand Is The Best? (Diamond Is Unbreakable)
I’ve already ranked the Stardust Crusaders Stands, so it’s only fair to give the rest of the Parts a go – continuing with “Diamond Is Unbreakable”. The Stands are even stronger and weirder this time around, if you can believe that. Same sort of rules as before – I’ll be ranking each Stand out ofContinue reading “Which JoJo Stand Is The Best? (Diamond Is Unbreakable)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Memories” (Trials & Tribulations – Case 1)
Ace Attorney had amassed quite a cult following by 2004, so Shu Takumi and his team needed to pull out all the stops to make the final game in their trilogy a memorable one. The end result, “Trials & Tribulations”, exceeded expectations and then some – and the first case “Turnabout Memories” got it offContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Memories” (Trials & Tribulations – Case 1)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Big Top” (Justice For All – Case 3)
Urgh … well I suppose I had to reach this case eventually. “Turnabout Big Top”, the third case in “Justice For All”, is widely hated by everyone … except, weirdly, Shu Takami himself (Ace Attorney’s creator and lead writer). He called this case “basically perfect”, which is incorrect for a plethora of reasons that I’mContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Big Top” (Justice For All – Case 3)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Lost Turnabout” (Justice For All – Case 1)
After the success of the first game, Shu Takami – Ace Attorney’s primary writer – was ordered by Capcom to make an entire trilogy. After months of writing and re-writing, and after being rushed by tight deadlines, it wasn’t long before “Justice For All” released in Japan. Its first case “The Lost Turnabout” has aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Lost Turnabout” (Justice For All – Case 1)”
