And the very last case was extremely tangled in ".a whole high schools' worth of drama." and (in my case) utter excitement. Fan girls such as myself will be extra happy adding this game to their collection because of the many new (VERY CUTE) male faces. Okay. I am a HUGE Ace Attorney nerd and was upset because there was no Phoenix in sight.
Most fans will still be rather dissapointed because Miles Edgeworth (who is my favorite) doesn't show up at all (neither does Pearl or Maya). All in all, the 36/40 rating from Famitsu and the fact that it had been nominated for best story on the DS 2008 is nothing to sneeze at. Phoenix was there. Turns out, I had nothing to worry about.
All the cases were unique to say the least. I agree with them.
Ace Attorney 4 is an adequate sequel to the earlier Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney games. While I recommend the earlier games wholeheartedly, the writing and characters in this installment don't quite measure up to the same standard.
He didn't have half the sharpness of tongue that Edgeworth had. She was very witty, and amusing all over.Klavier: The prosecutor for the game, he was NO Miles Edgeworth. I really.didn't approve of this game, if you're big on the Phoenix Wright games just for Phoenix alone, I don't suggest you playing this, but it could be a good bit of.knowledge i suppose to the whole story line. So I do warn you buy and play at your own risk. There are some, one or two added features. Not very involving to me.Characters:Apollo Justice: He was alright. It was rather nice to see some things you couldn't do in the prior things available.
He was very unsure of himself all the time, it didn't even feel like he was solving the cases at all. It was never him figuring things out on his own unlike with Phoenix who would take the evidence, piece it together and arrive at a startling conclusion (Mia, Maya, and Pearls not helping ALL the time)Trucy: She was an okay girl, she was no Maya, less annoying than Maya frankly. It made the game difficult for me to even manage to get through. Please be warned ahead of time, this review contains my review of this game. His morals took a big blow, he's really not the same "goody-two-shoes" phoneix we loved. These cases weren't all that exciting, Phoenix more or less solves the first and last one for you, I'm not joking on this.
I wasn't too impressed with it, the music didn't leave me calm and relaxed it left me uneasy and weary. You also have the standard four options while investigating too, so basically not much has changed. She was a bit ditzy but really great fun. I did like her over all the characters in the game honestly. Instead of trying to win the case he was more concerned about the "truth". In the end, the decision is yours alone whether to buy the game or not.Game Play:I would have to say the game play is very very much like the previous three games. He wasn't a very good prosecutor for me.Phoenix Wright:.I won't lie, it made me very sad to see Phoenix as he is now. Considering this is the first (of the series) to be made exclusively for the NDS they decided to get rather fancy with somethings and really turned things around.
Though the music itself I'd have to say it was a bit thumbed down. Just felt like Klavier, Trucy, and Phoenix were always helping him all the time. SNAZZY. Seriously he wasn't a Phoenix Wright, he didn't seem to have the same flare and confidence Phoenix had.
I hope everyone can agree to this. Still other than that, everything is relatively the same, you can still "Press" and "Present" like you always could. Apollo Jusice: Ace Attorney Review:Introduction:This review will cover over a few sections, I will keep spoilers to an absolute minimum, if any at all. For me this was good, too may changes to game play can ruin a potentially good game. He seemed to hold no interest at all in winning his cases, it was all some kinda pastime to him frankly. Meaning this contains a opinion that may only be unique to me, everyone's taste is different so please do not be deterred by one review alone.
Namely how they treated Phoenix in this game, it was rather terrible. It's.he's.so depressing. The biggest added feature being the "Precieve" feature which unlike the prior Megatama, you get to use this feature in court. It was very crisp and clean. The soundtrack quality was over all lovely.
She didn't blame Apollo for things he didn't do.which was nice. I think the soundtrack wasn't so great for me, but there again I may have poor taste in music.Cases:The cases were okay, they weren't that exciting the ending case left me very unsatisfied much like 'Farewell My Turnabout' (even though it was an awesome case). Where most of us who've played the first three games, we're use to a certain set up, I'm happy that wasn't changed.Soundtrack:For me soundtrack is important to any game, it sets the moods and the feel of the game. They just didn't feel like Apollo was doing ANYTHING frankly. It broke my heart, so frankly I don't like Phoenix in this game at all.Overall:Overall the game was alright, it had some good points but it had too many bad points to be truly enjoyable.
Would you like a treat).Many new characters are introduced for this game, including your assistant Trucy, a prosecutor named Klavier Gavin, and Apollo's mentor, Kristoph Gavin. OBJECTION. You're right. However, unfortunately many of Apollo's antics make you want for the original Phoenix.
And way too many people, to boot. I hadn't even noticed that."Here's how that might go down in Apollo Justice.Trucy: "Hey, Apollo. Definitely not.The gameplay for this episode remains very much the same as the previous games. The whole point of the game is that adrenaline rush when you prove a direct lie in the witness' testimony that proves him to be the murderer.You: "Now explain that."Witness: "AAAGH. Witness, look at this.
(Why hello, little Polly. Probably.Is it a strong new step to continue the series. Basically, I felt like the game destroyed your sense of self-satisfaction from solving the case. Y-you.you stupid attorney and your evidence."Prosecutor: "B-But.your honor, I object. What starts in 'Autops' and ends in '-y report'."Apollo: "Huh.OH.
It, er.contradicts."Klavier: "I believe Herr Forehead means that it contradicts , ja."Judge: "Could the defense not yell 'objection' so loud."Witness: "Well, it seems like not everything went quite according to plan. This seems quite condemning."Assistant: "Way to go. There are some small minigames where you analyze footprints and fingerprints, but these have been largely to impress reviewers who believe that they matter at all. Is Apollo Justice a true Ace Attorney game. What matters in a game almost entirely based on text.is the story.I actually have to congratulate Capcom on deciding to change their star series' main character. It's something you have to experience for yourself, but it basically involves a lot of dialogue explaining the murder, then you get the chance to try to prove a point with an intuitive Court Record system.
Yes.Is this worth buying for a fan of the series. Also, a few of the murders don't make any sense at all.During the last case, you do get a chance to play as Phoenix Wright for a short trial, but it just feels a little empty, especially because it ends in the loss of his badge forever.If you're still not too sure of buying it, there is a flash demo, and people have been uploading full YouTube videos of the cases (also available for the previous games). This is.unjust badgering of the witness."Judge: "Wrong, Mr.
It can feel pretty satisfying, and it's an idea I like to see continued in the series. He shows it in his actions, his relative height with the game's prosecutor, and the way everyone seems to treat him as a little boy. For one, he's young.
Prosecutor. Personally, I didn't quite like the dynamics of many of these characters; they all seem to be obsessed with one thing, unless it comes to helping you find the murder. Many developers, such as Hideo Kojima, might use their one-hit-wonder until he/she is balding and medicated.
Take note of that: The prosecutor HELPS you. Oh well."Believe it or not, that last quote is more or less what one of the murderers says when found out.
Justice personality lacks and it can drive you nuts sometimes. Love the fact that you can get close to some objects and dust for prints. I really enjoyed this game, but of course I also enjoyed all the other Phoenix Wright games as well. Also liked the fact that all the cases conected at the end so you get the whole story about Phoenix Wright and what happened to him. Otherwise a must buy for all that enjoyed Phoenix Wright.
