There's probably already a thread about this and I don't normally start threads but I felt compelled to on this occasion!

I just cannot believe how unbelievably good Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney is! I've just started the third game (Trials & Tribulations), and I've loved every single bit of it so far. With many people saying the third game is the best, I can't wait to thrash through it.

To anyone who hasn't got it for the DS, I really strongly advise you to try it. Start from the first game, obviously. I ummed and arred before I bought it after reading a few people big it up here. "A game where you play as a lawyer and solve murders?" I thought dubiously, having checked a few screenshots which didn't make it look too appealing.

Anyway I went ahead and I've never felt so attached to a game. The storyline is amazing and really sucks you in. The music is perfect especially in the first game, one of my fav soundtracks of all time (the official soundtrack actually has all the music in stereo and remixed and not midi).

I dunno what I'm gonna do when I finish it all, not looking forward to that! Can't believe they've brought another main character in for the 4th game based 7 years after the third, although I hear Phoenix is in that too, though he's not a defence attorney anymore?! And what about all the other characters!?

I'll leave you with this, imagine this kicking in as you present a vital piece of evidence and proceed to turn the trial around and unravel a testimony. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeP4RP6XNuE

1. I played the first trial in the first game, and was bored by that point and didnt go back.
2. Is that a spoiler to the end of Zelda? Probably worth editing out as you know what people are like.
 
I think its the best game series to come alone in the last few years, the story telling, music all fantastic.


enjoy pw3 its every bit as good as the 1st game and in some ways better ;)
 
yea i absolutely loved these games and the humour in them is insane :D

it can go a little bit OTT and crazy with its solutions but theres more than enough there to make you finish them :)
 
Never played em myself, but my girlfriend absolutely loved the first. Didn't know there were sequels, might have to buy em for her and possibly have a go at the original myself.

Apparently its actually due out in europe very soon. There's also a manga cartoon hitting the states in september too apparently, should be interesting. Oh and another game or something set around the same time as PW3 where you play as Edgeworth.

The only better game than the Pheonix Wright games on the DS that I've come across is Hotel Dusk.

Objection! Personally, I prefer PW, Hotel Dusk is good, but Phoenix Wright is the ultimate game. I have finished all 4 ace attorney games and cannot wait for the 5th or for Perfect Prosecutor( a spin off with edgeworth as the main character)
Without spoiling anything, there is a hilarius film reference case 3 of the third game.

Yeah, Phoenix Wright is a bit like marmite. Love it or get bored of it. I find that with a lot of my friends who played the game that dedication was a big part of it, when they got stuck in the game whether they were bothered to continue or not.
