I paid good money for this Dynex!
Man... honestly, it might be. The DLC case was really good, and I wasn't prepared for that. It's one of the longer cases, too. I didn't have a single regret about buying it.

Nice to see all the positive responses to the DLC case.
Quick Question (Mild DLC Spoilers):
Quick Question (Mild DLC Spoilers):
When you press the first statement in the Orla`s cross-examining, is Phoenix's line a word-for-word reference to when you press a statement from Polly's cross-examining in case 1-4? Because it seems like it.

Shoot this is 29.96 still. Was hoping for a sale so I can pick this up
And yet, it's every case in every AA game.

Ahh OK. I like the Edgeworth one the best due to the blushing lol.
I'm new to the series and really loved it, even though it feels little too "linear" sometimes. Now I'll get the previous games, but they are pretty expensive combined. These games are surprisingly long, it took me over 30 hours to complete.
Does anyone know is there an English option in the Japanese version of Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth? Because the first three games have that and I have a possibility to get all those 4 games for reasonably cheap (under 50€ combined, shipping included).
Btw, why is the game rated 16+ (M)?
I noticed a bondage reference in episode 3 and I guess episode 5 is relatively "harsh". But, really?
And holy shit at that twist before the end... Epic. Robin Newman is amazing, btw.
That's perfect. So the games take place in Los Angeles in the localized version, but originally the location is Japan? It doesn't make any sense, because the game is full of Japan. Are the other games like this?
And why are these games not more popular? Marketing has been non-existent? Because they really have some mass market potential! They are clearly perfect for handhelds, the writing is excellent and the control mechanics are simple.
One final note: The game is full of waifus.

Goddamn it I nearly choked at the last panel. I love these comics so much. I wonder if Feenie ever got his driver's license yet?

Is Turnabout Reclaimed worth getting? It seems like a bit too much for one case so I want to know is it good enough not to just watch it online or something.
You're already paying $6 per case for the base game and the DLC case is worth just as much as the other ones, if not more.

Agreed. It's just not some throwaway DLC but a fully featured case. Probably my favourite case of all. I enjoyed it all the way through.
Honestly, yes. The game's already below retail price and this case is definitely worth it. Some of the best characters appear in Reclaimed and in my opinion, it's the best written case in the game.

Even as someone who loves them, I get annoyed with them. They always push you to the absolute end of your rope before giving you an opening from out of nowhere to turn things around. It's supposed to be dramatic or something but it's actually often annoying.
...but it's worth it, because everything else is so good.

Was slightly disappointed with this game:
- didn't care for the anime scenes
- didn't like case 2 at all with all those charms and
, too convoluted. Also showing the killer at the start was not smart imo.
- too much fanservice with characters like
returning, just for the fact of returning
- all this
-bullshit blabla in the last case, I think it was one of the worst last cases of the series with a stupid
- I also didn't like this whole
theme at all
- I also found the prosecutor in this game to be bland and uninteresting. Only Klavier was worse. I rather have Edgeworth of Franziska.
Don't shoot me for this but I hate Apollo (Justice). I regard Apollo Justice the MGS2 of the series with Apollo being Raiden. The original cast of characters was far superior (Gumshoe, Maya).
Although I have to admit:
- the game has gorgeous graphics
- music was ok
- best case 1 and 3 of the series
- I didn't mind
that much and I loved that
- didn't care for the anime scenes
- didn't like case 2 at all with all those charms and
possibly posessed characters
- too much fanservice with characters like
Klavier, Edgeworth and Pearls
- all this
emotions and upbeat happy talk

They show you who the perp is in the very first case in the very first game in the series, it's not really that big a deal. And I don't really remember anybody taking the mayor seriously when he was acting posessed.
Just finished case two.
Please tell me the prosecutor isn't this annoying emo for the rest of the game or he atleast gets better. His gimmick got old really fast and I'm pretty sure

attacking people with birds and threatening with swords is more illegal than using magic bracelets.
For most of the game, yes.
However, there's a guest prosecutor for case 5.

Emo? That is... not really a word I would ever use to describe Blackquill at all.
Not sure how he is in case 2, but he has some really great moments throughout the game. I thought his shtick might be kinda dumb, but I liked him a lot by the end.
That's good to hear. Looking forward to play more considering the positive reactions in the community.
Mostly in appearance.
His mindtricks consisted of being a dick to pretty much everyone while people in the court somehow got confused by that. He also broke free from his chains twice and threatened to slice off heads whenever he got the chance. He's like a combination of the worst traits of Manfred von Karma and Franny von Karma without anything that makes them likeable.
Just finished it. Guys, it's really one of the best games in series, it's like a "best-of" show for the whole Ace Attorney.
Can't recommend this enough. This is a really gorgeous game, 3d, with studio Bones animated scenes, not bad of a story and pretty neat all round experience.
Really looking forward to 6 and (god help me) Investigations 2.
PLAY IT!

Franny is totally unlikeable in all ways. Awful and annoying character.
Finished the first 2 cases, not impressed at all so far. Please tell me that the rest of the game is much better.
I used to love every single game of the series, especially 3 and 4, so I am wondering if the first cases were really weak or if I just lost interest in reading through walls of text.

Well I personally loved Case 1 and liked Case 2 from the halfway point but they're the two weakest cases in the game in my opinion. Case 3 is awesome and a fave among many here so look forward to that

The first case was short, and the second just crappy. The third case and the DLC case are the best ones, I think. To be honest, this game has more text and less gameplay than the first games, but it's still enjoyable.
I'm partway through the third case and I have to say...the second case was WAY too long. They repeated the *HOLD IT* [cut to one person] [cut to another] [cut to another] [cut to another] [stay on the person who said it] gag about 12 times too many.
Also, not feeling Blackquil as the main prosecutor, not yet at least. To be fair, Gavin didn't win me over until Turnabout Serenade.

Still haven't played this yet (I know, I know!) and reluctant to go through the thread soooo I'll just ask. I'm aware this question has probably been asked 1000 times already so sorry.
Where does the DLC case take place within the story. I remember hearing its cases 1-3, DLC, 4-5, is that right?

Not quite. The DLC case takes place between case 2 and case 3.

Except there's no requirement to have 5 cases, and several of the games don't.

Now that I think about it, the only games that had a 5th case were the ones that had a flashback cases as well.
