Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth Message Board

Looking to learn more about this Phoenix Wright fellow who's about to share the stage with your beloved Professor Layton? First of all, curse your selective DS gaming diet. Secondly, you should look into Capcom's current deal of the week: The publisher's marked down prices on Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney and a Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney art book. If you're not brushed up on the litigatory franchise after all that, you probably aren't paying very close attention.

Our puritanical grandmother always tried to convince us that art is evil, but we never believed her until this morning. Though we fell asleep in a world where we loved every square pixel of Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, we awake to this gorgeous fan art from DeviantArt user brilcrist and now all we can think of is how much we wish the game looked exactly like that.

So, Capcom, what would you say to a big-budget, meticulously detailed game centered on Miles Edgeworth costing millions of dollars and countless man hours to produce?

... Hey, where are you going?

I think I might want to beat the third PW game though. I actually just got around to beating the second one today. I never really bought any of the sequels until like 2008 and then I put Just For All down for quite some time because I got stuck on it for some reason. I really don't know what it was now, I had almost no problems getting through it this time.

Either way I'm probably going to go pick up both Miles Egdeworth and the final PW game some time this week and get some mother *crag*in' investigatin' on.

But *crag* that Apollo Justice shit. *crag* it straight to hell.

What is it with Capcom and ruining its great GBA series with reboots?

Megaman Battle Network anyone?

Crime is about to get a kick in the ass.

A portion of a Eurogamer review… It’s so gorgeously loveable. Edgeworth was an inspired choice to take the lead role. The cast is ever-changing and hilarious. It made me laugh out loud so many times in Starbucks that the staff now give me odd looks.

Though it's been available in Japan since late May, Capcom's Phoenix Wright spin-off, Gyakuten Kenji, was playable in English form at the publisher's Tokyo Game Show hotel suite. Inefficiently dubbed Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, the game sees you ditching the spiky-haired idealist and donning a delightful cravat in service of the prosecution. In what could have been just another Phoenix Wright game, but presented from an opposing perspective, Ace Attorney Investigations diverges from tradition more than any other title in the series -- which is to say that it actually diverges from tradition just a bit. The focus is still heavily on plot, characters and clever yappin', but the sterile, first-person point-and-click investigation process has now been replaced with a third-person view. The control system is functional, but quite unnatural in one respect. You can maneuver Edgeworth through the 2D environments, displayed on the DS' top screen, by either dragging the stylus across the touch screen or simply using the d-pad (thanks for the option, Edgey!). When you've gotten him close enough to an item of interest, you tap a context-specific icon on the bottom screen to interact with it. So, it's less point-and-click and more walk-over-there-and-tap-the-button.
