Just a reminder to all Europeans, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is out today. So BUY IT!! BUY IT NOW!! Time to go get my latest Ace Attorney fix!
This has to be the most beloved of contemporary third party series.

Bought it at 9 am this morning. ;D
Although I've only completed the first half of case 1 so far, this game definitely blows PW:AA and JFA away!

Yes, Apollo Justice manages, through some miraclous feat of programming, to top the Phoenix Wright series (including PW:T&T). It has extremely likable characters, excellent cases, and it removes a lot of the tedium of exploring crime scenes by helping do forensics (which is much, MUCH better than psyche locks, if you ask me). I hope you guys in Europe really enjoy it like I did. ^_^

Well, I couldn't pick it up on Friday thanks to a rather cruel twist (work overran by 2 hours, so I missed Game's opening hours), but I finally picked it up over the weekend. And I love it. I wasn't sure if it was going to have the same old spark that I loved way back with the first two games in the series (yes, the third is actually being released AFTER the fourth! Idiots!) But it has that same grip on me as ever before. I'm loving the characters, the humour is as barmy as ever, and my initial fears about Apollo being a weak-man's Phoenix have been proven unfounded. Although he needs to smack his fists on the table more  Oh yeah, and it made me lose a couple hours sleep, just through sheer addiction. I wish it MADE you turn the DS off at the end of a trial... just to get some sleep  |

Nearly finished the second case, and I love this game. I like the whole CSI element that they've added to the game (even better than in the first game) and it's nice to see that they've kept the innuendo of the previous games.
In case 2, when you first meet Klavier, he remarks that he "hasn't felt this way from a man before".

Best line ever: "Many things come out of my panties... Even... The truth!" I'm in the first trial of the third case... but I lost! I thought the answer would be so obvious! But the obvious evidence was wrong... as were my backups! I lose... back to the start of the trial I think this is why I prefer to use GameFAQs for anything that might brutalise the game. Yes, I prefer to work it out, but sometimes... just sometimes... it doesn't make sense, and I'd rather not spend the next half hour getting back to where I was. |

I love this game more than all the others. Might be that it's darker than everything but perhaps JFA's last trial (the only good part of JFS save one case, which was IMO the second one).
The game also helps me realize Phoenix Wright is my favorite AA character. I loved him in his games and this just raises him further. But my favorite characters in AJ are prolly Klavier, Phoenix, Ema, Trucy, and the Case 3 witness, unsure if the name would be considered a spoiler here.
Oh and Fry, "You have a knack for finding womens' panties!"

YES IT WOULD!! I'm still on case 3 I must admit, I warmed to Apollo a lot faster than I expected to. His personality is different enough to Phoenix to make him a good character, and his humour is different too. More cheeky. |

Apollo's pretty different. Good character too.
Now hopefully you agree Trucy is superior to Maya. Not that I hate Maya, I just think Trucy's more amusing and helpful.

Trucy is my favorite character in the whole game. She's really awesome.  Glad to hear you guys are enjoying it. |

I'm afraid my favourite character, as with all previous games in the series, remains the Judge. He's just... brilliant!

Yes, he's quite funny. He certainly provides most of the big laughs. *sigh* Miles Edgeworth needs to come out sooner than it is... |

Am currently on the fourth and final case. I've liked doing the whole 'percieve' thing, but a couple have had me stumped for quite a while.
