    Five

    Technically six because the DLC case is actually coming to US and EU

    One of my favorite little jokes so far was in the first day of case 1.
    Juniper is gushing about Apollo, and at one point Phoenix thinks to himself, "The way she's praising him, you'd think he was a some kind of ancient god."

    ...

    "Oh wait."

    The secret best thing about this game is the Notes system.

    No more running around trying to figure out what piece of evidence the game wants you to present to someone to actually move the investigation forward.

    Ok, look

    We all love klavier's air guitar sprite

    But how awesome is blackquill's thing where he goes to draw a katana and is stopped by his shackles

    Its pretty awesome

    Athena's double-palm desk slam (as she has a single one too) is my favourite animation so far, you can tell that she is just livid.

    Although I already know all the major plot points, I've decided to play from the beginning again. PW1:
    Aww, Mia promised Maya to go out for noodles burgers... :cry:

    Just started the 3-minute recess in Case 2 Day 1
    Oh fuck put the chains back on, put the chains back on, why did they give him his sword?

    Also 'SILENCE' is a pretty good trademark phrase for Blackquill.

    Is there really not an examine option anymore during the investigation phase?

    'Cause I really need to know how dusty Mia's old law books are at this point.

    Bobby Fullbright being so great makes it a little easier to take the apparent lack of Gumshoe or even Ema

    An Ace Attorney thread that doesn't mention the truly spectacular movie?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUElpl_jDEY

    It's actually really good. It's essentially just the first game in movie form (and wouldn't make much sense if you didn't play the games) but a few things changed around. I loved it.

    I have a podcast about Digimon called the Digital Moncast, on Audio Entropy.

    wait wait wait

    did they base the new courtrooms in AA5 off of the one in the movie

    I haven't played AA5, so I dunno. The giant hologram thing was just to simulate how you presented evidence as a floating icon in the game.

    Now that I look at it, that's probably how the courtroom was originally designed to look. I mean, how often do you see anything that isn't Phoenix/Judge/Stand/Prosecutor?

    that IS how the courtroom originally looked, for the most part

    they fancied it up a bit and darkened the color palette but that's all really

    I just started case 2

    and so far my favorite thing is how they've mixed together phoenix's haplessness from the first three games with the air of obi-wan-ish wisdom he had in apollo justice

    Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    I hope Klavier prosecutes on one of the cases

    Blackquill's good, but he's a pretty cut and dry "Bad Guy"

    Klavier's a friend to Apollo, and he's actually after the truth of a case rather than winning or losing

    I'd like to see him and Phoenix face off in better circumstances than the last time they did

    I'm glad Apollo wasn't just swept under a rug after the reception to his game.
