It's hard to quantify what makes a game like Ghost Trick so endearing. Much like the Ace Attorney series before it, Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective just has a kind of immeasurable charm that is difficult to accurately express through language alone. Perhaps it speaks solely to the strength of the writing, but if one thing is for certain it is that Shu Takumi has delivered once again on the concept of an enthralling virtual narrative. 
   
It's hard to talk about Ghost Trick and not at least pay mention to the Ace Attorney because, although it may seem contrary, the games are indeed very similar. Ghost Trick is essentially a linear murder mystery in which you, as the ghostly protagonist Sissel, attempt to uncover your lost identity by saving the lives of others using your supernatural "Powers of the Dead" to roll back time four minutes before a person's demise and manipulate the inanimate objects around them in an attempt to change their fate. The way the game plays out is, essentially, identical to an Ace Attorney game. You are more of an observer rather than a participant in most cases, and that isn't a bad thing.
 
The draw here isn't necessarily you, as the player, having an impact on the story. Much like the Ace Attorney games, Ghost Trick's main attraction is watching the tale unfold and, in this case, seeing how the plethora of unique characters come to terms and deal with a world in which ghosts do very much exist. It's an interesting story, to say the least, and it takes perhaps a bit more than its fair share twists of towards the end. The conclusion is satisfying, however, and of a nature that you may feel compelled to replay the game almost immediately. It is one thing to say that a game has a good story, but it is quite another to say that a story both encourages and improves subsequent playthroughs. 
 
That being said, there is one area in which Ghost Trick takes a sharp turn away from its predecessor. Unlike the Ace Attorney games, the gameplay in Ghost Trick is perhaps a bit more rewarding, and certainly faster paced. The main crux of the game, namely the possession and manipulation of inanimate objects throughout an environment, is smartly implemented and expanded upon as the game progresses. While new elements are sparse and rarely introduced, each of the environments in Ghost Trick is completely unique and built to handle at least one, if not several, unique puzzle scenario.
 
The flow of Ghost Trick's gameplay is split into two separate phases. There is the present in which Sissel can travel between any two locations connected via phone and solve puzzles at his leisure with the benefit of limitless in-game time, and then there are the sections four minutes into the past in which puzzles must be solved within an allotted time limit in order to save someone's life. As time, and characters, are prone to progressing forward with or without your interference, a rewind button is introduced in sections taking place in the past as a means to reset the world to its original state should you miss a prime opportunity to change fate. These reset points are, thankfully, checkpointed after each time a significant change is made in how a scenario is played out meaning you won't have to wait too long to take another crack at any specific section. It's really an interesting system and one that, unlike most adventure games, makes you take real time into account. Although you won't necessarily be forced into making quick decisions on the fly, there is a level of speed needed in order to execute some of the more complex maneuvers that ratchets up the intensity quite a bit during later sequences.
 
If there is one thing that is  immediately striking about Ghost Trick though, it is its presentation. The music is palatable with a few noteworthy anthems that may get stuck in your head, but the real highlight here is the visuals. Like many interactive novel styled games on the DS, a majority of interactions between characters are accompanied by large detailed character sprites and equivalent 2D backgrounds. The art style is very angular and comes off as dynamic and exciting to look out. These, on there own, would probably be enough to convey the story of Ghost Trick, but unlike many other games in this vein though, Ghost Trick also employs character models moving about the environments to illustrate its tale as well. The interesting part here is not that this method is used, but how it is used.  
 
To my knowledge, no other game has ever used an animation style like this before. I'm hardly an expert in the field, but it seems like the team at Capcom actually took still images of 3D models and constructed 2D sprites out of them. It's beautiful and incredibly fluid, completely unlike anything I've seen in a game before. The animation on its own is almost reason enough to pick up Ghost Trick as it adds a tremendous amount of life to otherwise static characters. In a lot of ways it feels like a natural evolution of the Ace Attorney story telling formula, an achievement that the currently running Ace Attorney Investigations series has failed to match. 
 
But really, when it comes down to it, this is a game that, much like its protagonist, is dedicated solely to telling its story. A good story, but also a very quirky one. Yes there are quite a few clever puzzle elements and some stunning visuals, but if you aren't on board for a lengthy trek through the valley of strange personalities and odd motivations then it may be best to steer clear.
 
At the end of the day, Ghost Trick is about its characters. There are a lot of great elements built around it, but the narrative is the core of the experience.
 
And that's probably a good thing.

NEWS:

From now on I'm going to be doing the schedules all in one big post each and every week in the Digibutter TV forums. This helps keep everything organized and gives me a place to point people who are too *crag*ing stupid to look up the schedule for themselves.

Digibutter Radio is starting this week in full effect making it our third weekly stream; scroll down for more information on how you can contribute to that.

In other stream related news, I'm working on the rebirth of the Diginime Club and should be posting more information about that shortly. Basically, this is a smaller 4-5 show stream during the week that will focus solely on subbed anime and take the stream a bit back towards the roots it was founded on, if only for a day. The schedule right now is looking like it is going to be Panty & Stocking, Bakuman, Angel Beats!, Durarara!!, and NGE although I'm not sure about the availability of some of those so expect revisions to be forthcoming.

Okay so, without further bull shit here is your schedule for the week.

 

Impromptu Weekly Stream: Moral Orel


So it has occurred to me that, while Moral Orel may be one of the best television programs ever made, the first season is nothing compared to the latter portion. That being said I've decided to dump out the first season en masse unto the unwilling masses so that we can get to THE MOST IMPORTANT CHARACTER IN MORAL OREL.


Brace for unexpected Orels to be dropping throughout the week whenever the forums are most active.

Boondocks
Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo
Samurai Jack

Digibutter Radio @ ALL DAY on 2/20/11

(tentative bumper)


THIS WEEK'S THEME: Rap

So this is basically how this is going to work: Every week I'm going to announce a musical genre or theme and ask the Digibutter community to supply me with albums (not songs, albums) and then stream them throughout the day on the Ustream channel.

Why are we doing it this way?

1. It allows people to contribute to the stream and allows people to discover new artists easily via the album list I will post as a companion to each stream.

2. Doing a weekly rotation means that you only have to wait one week for something new if you don't like the theme for that particular week. Everyone wins.

This week's theme is rap, so offer up to us your most illest of mic masters. So yeah, pretty broad. Simply post album suggestions below and they will be added to the list (unless they are absolutely terrible in which case you can just go *crag* yourself).

Also this one is *crag*ing easy, so I expect results.
 

My Own Supply:

This is basically going to be my offerings for this broadcast. I'm keeping it deliberately small so my own tastes don't dominate the stream and, of course, so everyone has a chance to be heard. Because of this, I recommend that everyone suggests a maximum of three albums.

Madvillainy - Madvillain
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kanye West
Labor Days - Aesop Rock

PROGRAM

 

Popple: God damn it

Popple: This is the worst day ever

Popple: And it is only 1 AM

Flavio: lolwat

Flavio: poor popple

Popple: Man I used to think Hussie was cool

Popple: But *crag* man

Popple: And it takes a lot to get into my cool club man

Popple: That is some exclusive mother *truckers* right thar

Popple: The most IPs

Popple: mspa is dead to me

Popple: It ended in a most dramatic fashion

Popple: I shed my first tear on that day

Popple: And twas it a day

Popple: A day that will live in infamy for all eternity

loafSKZ: wat

loafSKZ: I don't get it

loafSKZ: why

Popple: I know right

Popple: It's like

Flavio: pops is butthurt that Tavros appeared in ONE panel

Flavio: in hell

Flavio: and is completely irrelevent at this point

Flavio: and probably will remain to be so for a long time

Popple: How could someone come up with something that is so amazing and so closureing at the same time

Popple: It is like

Popple: What

Flavio: and even then he probably won't be important

Popple: I mean it is basically going to be put into the history books

Popple: The first and only webcomic to be taught in College level literature courses

loafSKZ: Tarvos was meant to be the punching bag character

loafSKZ: And the whole hell thing was probably to get the fanbase to shut the *crag* up about dead trolls

Popple: It has nothing to do with how important he may or may not be

Popple: Hussie just showed his hand

Popple: He showed us that what happens to the characters means JACK SHIT

Popple: It was never about the characters

Popple: He just wants to tell his bloated universe creation story

loafSKZ: As I said

loafSKZ: To get the fanbase to shut the *crag* up

loafSKZ: about dead trolls

Popple: Yeah I know

Popple: Respect lost

loafSKZ: I guess in a sense yeah thats some bullshit

Popple: y no 1 listen to flutter-shy

Flavio: Tavros will appear in like a thousand pages from now

Flavio: for one panel

Popple: Flavio you are missing the point

Flavio: He is dead and completely irrelvent to the main action, how can you say that is nothing?

Flavio: Deaths do mean something

Popple: No it doesn't

Popple: Tavros was always a gag

Popple: THAT IS ALL HE WAS

Flavio: Equius was always a gag

Popple: He helped tell Vriska's story, but he himself was worthless

Flavio: Tavros had more to it

Flavio: him*

Popple: No he didn't

Popple: All he did was help develop Vriska

Popple: He never developed

Popple: At all

Flavio: he showed development

Flavio: he tried to stop vriska

Flavio: and he tried to develop a plan

Flavio: to stop jack

Popple: And failed

Popple: And died

Flavio: how is that not development?

Flavio: old tavros would have done

Flavio: none of that

Popple: Because he didn't develop

Popple: He died

loafSKZ: I doubt any of the horror terror bubble people are going to do shit

Flavio: He tried to do something that he never would have done

loafSKZ: Really it's just to get the fans

Flavio: and yes he died

loafSKZ: to

loafSKZ: shut

Popple: No shit he is just going to use them as a gag

loafSKZ: the

loafSKZ: *crag*

loafSKZ: up

Popple: Flavio the point is that Hussie isn't doing this for the story

loafSKZ: At best Hussie will rip off DBZ and there'll be some stupid spirit bomb sequence or something

Flavio: Really, Flavio only sees Tavros' physical form as an extension of his emotional lingering effect on vriska

Flavio: ie: visiting her as a ghost

Flavio: haunting her

Popple: k

Flavio: literally reather than metaphorically

Popple: Hussie is still no longer the awesome I thought he was

Popple: And will likely never redeem himself

Popple: This is the saddest of days

Flavio: you are really taking this way too far

Popple: NEVER HAVE I BEEN FACED WITH SUCH A SITUATION

loafSKZ: Wait so let me get this shit straight

Flavio: if you had any faith in Andrew's talents as a writer you'd realize there is probably a point in this

Flavio: jeez

Popple: I used to

Popple: BUT NOT ANYMORE

loafSKZ: Pops is baaaw about homestuck because they brought back Tarvos for the *cragging* horrorterror bubbles?

Flavio: yes

Flavio: exactly

loafSKZ: thats silly

Flavio: he doesn't think deaths are meaningful anymore?

loafSKZ: They're going to make a spirit bomb

Popple: No it isn't

loafSKZ: THEY'RE GOING TO MAKE A SPIRIT BOMB

Popple: Gamzee isn't terrifying anymore

Popple: Who cares if he kills someone

loafSKZ: THEY'RE

loafSKZ: GOING

loafSKZ: TO

loafSKZ: MAKE

Flavio: and he thinks of Tavros as a gag character, so how does it matter if he appears once as a gag

loafSKZ: A

loafSKZ: SPIRITY

Popple: They'll just come back in the *cragging* buble

loafSKZ: BOMB

Flavio: also we haven't seen Equius in hell

Flavio: so

Popple: Gamzee is nothing now

Flavio: -_-

Popple: He can kill whoever he wants

Popple: I really don't care

Flavio: So you think if everyone died

Popple: I used to care

Flavio: the story could

Flavio: continue

Popple: Of course not

Flavio: see?

Flavio: goddamn

Popple: I didn't want Nepeta to die though

Popple: Before

Popple: But now I really don't care

Popple: Because she'll still exist

loafSKZ: All the trolls are going to make a spirit bomb

loafSKZ: This is *cragging* happening

Flavio: asdf loaf n1 carez

loafSKZ: It's still happening

Popple: If Equius wasn't already dead I wouldn't care

Flavio: who says Equius will ever appear again

Flavio: ever

Popple: Really that one panel just pretty much negated the last month of build up

Popple: Interest level 0

Popple: It was just so *cragging* nonchalant to

Popple: Like there was no reason for that panel to be there

Popple: There was just no *cragging* reason

Flavio: BAWWWWW

Popple: k

Flavio: 

Popple: I'm seriously just done with Homestuck

Popple: I'm really just considering not reading it anymore

Popple: Because I don't trust that he isn't just going to *crag* everything up now

Popple: Man this just sucks

loafSKZ: Pops try to look at it through the other spectrum

loafSKZ: Hussie spent a looooong *cragging* time with the Trolls

loafSKZ: and there characterization and shit

loafSKZ: Thats kinda a kick in the dick to just kill off something with that much characterization without making everything simply go wrong and die

Popple: THATS WHY IT WAS SO GREAT

Flavio: thats kind of the point of death in a story loaf

Popple: BECAUSE HE JUST DIDNT GIVE A *crag*

Flavio: death WITHOUT characterization is pointless

loafSKZ: But they left alot of shit unanswered for like over half the *cragging* trolls

Popple: Dude that is the best way to do it

Popple: If you give them closure it can only hit so hard

Popple: But to kill them off just as they are in the middle of developing

Popple: MAN

loafSKZ: You just liked it for the emotional impact

Popple: Should I like it for another reason

Flavio: everything in homestuck has had a point though

Flavio: so there is a point to this shit

loafSKZ: spirit bomb

Popple: The point was to make Gamzee and Eridan into TOTAL *cragging* MONSTERS

loafSKZ: Maybe Hussie will crush this glimmer of hope

loafSKZ: and have all the horror terror bubbles be destroyed or something

Popple: Dude to think that those characters were pruned for months just to be killed off by that clown

Popple: It is *cragging* delicious

Popple: But then he had to go ruin it

Popple: He had to go sell out to the *cragging* fans man

Popple: Like christ

Popple: Suck it the *crag* up

loafSKZ: They can still all disappear forever

Popple: No they can't

loafSKZ: Maybe if Rose destroy's the green sun or whatever the *crag* it'll kill off all the horrorterrors?

Popple: This has been established

Flavio: We already knew Feferi was dead and sitll appearing in dream bubbles like

Flavio: months ago

Flavio: so

Flavio: why is this a huge deal

Popple: Because

Popple: It is

Flavio: plus Kanaya came back as a vampire like

Flavio: two panels later

Flavio: 

Popple: Kanaya coming back was justified

Flavio: it was just kind of stupid to assume that Tavros would dissapear forever

Popple: Also we didn't know how long Feferi could communicate after death

Flavio: if we knew that two of the deaths already were going to be nulled

Popple: We've basically just been told that death means nothing and *crag* EVERYPONY

loafSKZ: They can't do anything though

Flavio: EXACTLY

Popple: Implying those characters did anything

Flavio: Dave is the only one who will do anything monumental

Flavio: at all

Popple: That's the point Flavio

Popple: They aren't back to serve a purpose

Popple: They are just back to be back

Flavio: but they are

Flavio: that is why Feferi was shown a long time ago

Popple: w/e im done caring

Flavio: Tavros will continue to not be monumentally important, but he has a point

Popple: homestuck is over wasnt it great

Popple: i cant wait to buy my ebook copy at walden books

Popple: I don't understand how people can be okay with this

Flavio: besides its a goddamn webcomic what did you expect

Popple: I *cragging* hate MSPA forums

Flavio: War and Peace?

Popple: But he was doing so well

Flavio: plus we still get to look forward to gamzee murdering john

Popple: And then John comes back

Popple: And not a single *crag* was given

Flavio: -_-

Flavio: if deaths were completely pointless then why did they have to restart after John and Jade died?

Flavio: also how about you like bring this shit up on Hussie's formspring

Flavio: argue with him

loafSKZ: I imagine people probably already are

Popple: Because he won't listen to me

Popple: And i have better things to do

Popple: So now that Homestuck is over and we never have to talk about it again

Popple: When is Francis going to add more smilies

Flavio: Andrew answers like

Flavio: every formspring question that is worth anything

Popple: He answers a lot

Flavio: so as long as you can type a coherent thought to him

Popple: But I doubt that is a majority of the worthwhile ones

Flavio: just give it a shot

Flavio: better than whining at us

Flavio: :p

Popple: w/e i don't care anymore

Popple: this doesn't matter

Popple: none of this matters

Flavio: you are still whining about it

Flavio: so

Popple: No I'm not we are done

Popple: I'm just going to avoid all Homestuck discussion here forever and never go to the site ever again

Popple: Ever

Popple: In fact I might as well just hide the Homestuck board here now

Flavio: bawww

Popple: w/e this is happening

Popple: This is a thing that has happened

Popple: It is DONE

Popple: Hey

Popple: You guys

Popple: You guys

Popple: Hey

Flavio: wat
