Friend of mine bought an XL for this (and Pokemon). Hasn't touched the series since Trials and Tribulations. The hype is real.
Also didnt know Detective Conan and other anime were on topic.

It's detective anime with a lot of weird ass case so I though make comparison between them and AA is rather fair.
Though frankly, AA have more solid, better writing on its case compared to those anime. Also they managed it right, not too weird but also not too normal. Only AJ case 3 guilty of being complicated for the sake of complicated.
Daryan is a good culprit though, put a lot of resistance before going break

Don't worry, we would've stopped talking about it if people told us it weren't.
I'm probably going to stop playing everything else until I finish this game, which has been the story of every game released this month lol. Sorry Pokemon, RF4, FF14, (soon to be BBCP).

Oh, thanks a lot! I really love both, so I had a hard time picking one up.
I hope Athena is the confident kind of girl.
Thanks!
You're doing it wrong.
Alright... Do tell.
This series heavily relies on its story, which is linear across its games. Playing the fifth game in the main series is not recommended, as a result, though it's manageable.
This is a very story-heavy franchise. You'll be missing out on A TON of references and backstory and general character development. It's like starting to watch Lost on its 3rd season or something like that.
I think that's a bit harsh - the games' plots aren't directly connected like that suggests. But you do get more out of playing the past ones to recognize old characters/concepts.
Lol dat hair, I know it gonna be awesome thing when shit hits
Usually the best culprit in AA have law (enforcement) background, which makes them could put resistance by hiding behind procedural, or meta-law things. AAI last case against Quercus Alba have similar thing too right?

Thursday is taking a really long time to get here. I'm soo excited. I'm considering speeding through an Apollo Justice playthrough to help pass the time.
Actually, you can since I believe that AA is one of the rarer game series which each games can stand on its own merit (except for Trial and Tribulation, the conclusion that needs so many prior knowledge of first two games). You can play Apollo Justice then play the trilogy later. The only problem I can think of if you play this as your first AA game is that you'll get hard time getting used to the old sprite graphic that older AA title employed, namely the original trilogy that quite low in their quality.
Oh God, Alba. "EXTRATERRITORIAL RIGHTS! EXTRATERRITORIAL RIGHTS! EXTRATERRITORIAL RIGHTS!"
Sammy Samusu already done it lol, just after I do
Here's my work
Ah, damn, sorry, didn't see your post until then. Thanks anyway!
Heavily... no. While it's true there's some important connection between games, they're hardly vital to the overall understanding. I agree it's much better to actually know that stuff before playing AA5!
While I see where you're coming at, I have to disagree. I probably wouldn't if the DS version hadn't aged well or anything, but that's not the case. Sure, you CAN start with AA5, but all the others games really deserve to be played. Sure, it's no big deal if you do AA5 first, then the rest, but honestly, if you're gonna play them all, might as well start with the 1st game.
So I've been playing Apollo Justice and while I dunno if the Phoenix in that game is entirely consistent with the Nick of the past, he's still definitely awesome. In the start of the first case Kristoph Gavin refers to the case as a "game of hands". Phoenix laughs, smirks, and agrees that "hands" are very important.
Also the painting from the opening cutscene is
Phoenix is referring to the skull on Kristoph's hand.

Bull, if you were truly on her team you'd be fine with how she turned out! ;P

Nope.
My whole problem with AJ is that they took all my favorite characters and either gave them the shittiest hand possible or discarded them entirely. It was like a slap in the face, like the game was trying to force you to like all the new characters. Trucy is the worst
(I don't care if she's Nick's daughter)

No! I missed out on all the avatar goodness. ;__;
Well, can I reserve one for when the game comes out? I'd really like one for (slight spoilers)
