Go buy Phoenix Wright

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 12:51 pm

If you have a DS, you should buy this game.

After hearing all the good reviews I decided to pick this up.

And not only is the best game I've played for the DS, it's one of the best games I've played.

I only beat it a couple days ago and I miss it already and I can't help but feel it's a damn shame more people aren't playing this game.

If they released a sequel I would buy it in a second, but unfortunately regardless of all the good reveiws, the game isnt selling too well from what I hear (even though I had to wait to get mine because it had sold out which seems weird)

So all you DS owners should move your ass and support this game already

I wanted to support this when/if it came out in Europe but I guess I'll get it now as it's quite cheap on play-asia

Was going to buy it right now and paste up the confirmation but I already ordered from that site today and I'll feel ripped off paying for 2 sets of shipping ina day

What's play asia?
I heard they released an english version even when it was released in japan is that what you mean?

No no, it's a website that I use to buy import games

You get confused easuly, don't you

It's not that I get confused. It's I dont like to make any assumptions whatsoever. Also I just want to know everything so I ask a bunch of questions

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 2:42 pm

Yes, I am Neil

Hey, it would've made a funny kind of sense if you were. I was just investigating the possibility.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 3:17 pm

It would have actually made no sense at all.
If it turned out I was also Joei, would that also make sense?

Calbrena · Post by **Calbrena** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 3:25 pm

I want to get Phoenix Wright but have no money right now

Will buy it in a couple of months

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 3:33 pm

To be honest, I don't actually know what the game involves, just the concept of it all

Calbrena · Post by **Calbrena** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 3:41 pm

So Asaroth, could you post a quick review of it please?

I'm gonna get it anyway, but it would be nice to know more about it.... Plz no spoiler though

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 4:07 pm

Ok I'll post a quick review here
Though I dont want you getting hung up on it seeming like unfamiliar territory

Usually I would start out with a comparison to a similar game but I cant really think of one. Certain elements of the gameplay remind me of this hentai game I played called season of the sakura, but that's a really really poor comparison. Other elements remind me of an adventure game like king's quest or something. You have to look around and sort of solve puzzles by usoing the correct item(evidence) where is what I mean.

However what really makes the game shine is the presentation
The game really excels in getting you involved in whats going on in
As I mentioned I have a concentration disorder. Even though I play a lot of games I have trouble playing anything for more than an hour or 2. However I was able to play this literally from waking to sleeping one day.
It was very hard for me to just stop in the middle of one of the cases. You just feel compelled to keep going a lot like a good book you cant put down. The game seems to hit the perfect combo of comedy and drama

I heard people say the game was going to be short but thats a complete lie. It's actually a fairly decent sized game. I'd estimate 30-40 hours at least.

Possible reasons for you to be neil

1. neil was missing
2. You were british(Joei's not british!...I think)
3. You were a bit or possibly a lot of a clown: neil was a clown
4. neil and shaun were on very good terms when I left and you were the admin. In this scenario you were neil: He handed over the reins of sg to his friend neil which would explain why you were admin
5. But it was mostly that one pic of you reminded me of what I remembered neil looking like and then 1-4 came into place to support the possibility

Joei is British! He's a disservice to the name, as he hates tea (I would be a better Brit than you Joei

), but he's British.

buy it for me asaroth

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 9:11 pm

Since I'm getting a DS tomorrow... Yes, I know this as I've been a horrible vulture over the Christmas tree.

Anyway, since I'm getting one tomorrow, I do want to pick the game up at some point.

It looks really cool.

Phoenix Wright is a

game. Finished it a couple of months back, and now hoping that they'll release part 2 and 3.

Part 4 has a totally different new cast, so I'm a little skeptical about it. But... I think it'll be great as well.

Whatever made you think i wasn't british? wtf?

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed Dec 28, 2005 11:31 pm

I just got Phoenix Wright.

Yeeeeee.

If anyone lives in the Vancouver area and wants Phoenix Wright, EBGames in Guildford has three more copies.

Phoenix Wright = interactive book.

Its alright, but under no circumstances can this be called a game.

OBJECTION!!

That statement is clearly contradictory to this evidence!

Game
1. An activity providing entertainment or amusement; a pastime: party games; word games.

In your face Spruchy!

@Spruchy:

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Thu Dec 29, 2005 9:18 am

Ha ha. Wow. Case two was great. I was actually really stumped for a bit, and even lost at one point. :O My thinker had all the gears removed.

Ba dum bum, tsh!

I'll stop being a loser now. Yay!

The game should be released in Europe in March or something, I thing. Along with a bunch of other games such as AC, the surgeon game, etc.

Not bad

. The other cases will make you reset your DS every now and then.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 8:59 am

Case 3 was actually a little easy. :O

It fell into place much easier than case 2, for some reason.

There was still the highly satisfying moment of "OH! ...AHA!", though.

I love that feeling. Heh.

I also give this game the credit of getting my mom obsessed with a video game again. She hasn't liked much since the original Donkey Kong.

Impaler · Post by **Impaler** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 9:11 am

Wait till you reach case 5.

I tend to buy the American versions of games as the boxes are slimmer and better looking on my shelf

I...think I hate von Karma.

I WILL KILL HIM, TEAR OUT HIS EYEBALLS AND STUFF HIM IN A DUMPSTER! *rage*

His head banging is like music to my ears. <3[/spoiler]

As you can tell, I am very pleased with the outcome.
