 Objection!!! August 7, 2008
Before I start I'll say this: The ace attorney series is extremely slow and text heavy so if you're a not a person who doesn't have the patience to think thing through or likes to read then leave the room because this isn't the game for you.
Did they leave yet? Alright with that said if you're looking for a game to challenge your mind and like to read some great dialogue this is a must have for your DS.
Graphics: While The DS may never be the graphics powerhouse of the PSP but graphics aren't all that important but with that being said the graphics are great. There all very animated and cartoon like they are animated and over the top. It's good to see in the courtroom as you slowly drag the truth from people seeing them visible breaking down and overreacting to what's happening. All the characters are very crisp, well animated, and have great detail.
Game play: The game is divided into 2 parts. A first person point and click style where you gather clues and information about the case and the people involve and the courtroom where you look for contradictions and present evidence to destroy the prosecution's case and find the truth amongst all the lies being told. One of the great things about this game is all the characters like Police Detective Dick Gumshoe who's being inept lands him always into trouble to the cool and calm prosecutor Miles Edgeworth who is your main opponent in the game. My complaint about the game play is the games linear logic. Even when you do figure out the answer to what's happening you have to got through the steps: say you're a point A and you see evidence in the court that can prove someone guilty but is at point G you have to go through all the steps to reach G. Also sometimes you'll find there is more then one piece of evidence that proves that your point the game still only has 1 right answer. And in the point and click parts the game isn't always clear on where exactly you have to go or talk to next so expect a lot of backtracking.
Music: The music in the Ace Attorney series is top notch. They capture the shock of when you get a big revelation to the case, the tension of pressing the witness and getting them to break and the happiness of proving you client innocent. And this amazing considering the Midi sounds of the DS they can pack in memorable songs that capture the situation so well.
Overall: This was my first adventure into point and click gaming and I love it. If you are looking for an interactive mystery game that requires you intuition and brain skill pick up this game. It's heavy on reading but the dialogue is good, characters memorable and situations unique to draw you in.
A pleasant surprise! July 31, 2008
Well here's my story: I received this game as a birthday present from a friend, and when I first saw it, I was a bit skeptical. I thought, You've got to be kidding me. A game about LAW?? It sounded pretty boring, but since my friend said he had enjoyed it so much, I thought I'd give it a shot. And I'll tell you, after just a few minutes, I was loving this game! The characters you meet are charming and fun (well, most of them, anyway :P), and the story is quite interesting indeed. So after finishing this one, I decided I had to buy the sequel for myself, which I have beaten and have thought is even better than the one before it! Now just so you know where I'm coming from, I am not the hugest gamer in the world, but I have played and enjoyed games such as Kingdom Hearts, Harvest Moon, Final Fantasy, and others, and Phoenix Wright is definitely one of my favorites! Yes, it is a bit unrealistic, but it's really easy to get past that once you get into the game. I highly recommend this game to anyone!!
 It's worth it July 15, 2008
Okay maybe this game isn't for everyone but I liked it.
At first I didn't like all the reading, there is a lot of reading. Then it was confusing but once you got the hang of it, it's a lot of fun.
If you don't like spending time to think or if you don't like getting things wrong (i got a lot of things wrong and it was frusterating at times) then this might not be the game for you.
If you like reading, and doing hard puzzles and you like problem solving then this might be the game for you.
Great game! July 11, 2008
This is the first game I bought when I got my DS, great game, if you like investigating and crime solving games. I really don't mind reading and the characters are so funny sometimes that you really get into the story. Great game overall, recomend it!
Best DS game series to Get! June 21, 2008
Honestly, I thought a lawyer game would be the most boring crap ever! WRONG! This game, even though it is pretty challenging (and has a bit of violence in it) it is funny and highly addicting. I really don't have to say whats good about this game (everything has been said!)
