Everything GREAT About Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All!
Episode 1: The Lost Turnabout
Spoilers!
(Obviously...)
(Case intro) "Ah, the infamous nightmare accompanied by Bach's Toccata and Fugue!" *4 wins*
"Also, moral dilemma-shadowing!" *ding*
(Phoenix wakes up in the defendant lobby) "Bach ringtone!" *ding*
(Wellington attacks Phoenix with a fire extinguisher) "Though this scene gives away the culprit, at least we don't see him committing the actual crime." *ding*
"Maggey Byrde." *ding*
"This game's Court Begins theme is pretty sweet, especially the bells." *2 wins*
"The victim and the defendant were not only lovers, but also in the same line of work? That's kind of cool, but still sad." *ding*
(Payne's new smug animation) "Love this." *ding*
"Detective Gumshoe!" *3 wins*
(Phoenix: Why do I not remember getting a copy...?) "Because... amnesia. That's why." *ding*
"Court Record tutorial!" *ding*
(Gumshoe beginning his testimony) "Poor Gumshoe, having to testify against someone he's got a crush on, and one of his own officers, too! It's easy to feel for him here." *ding*
"Given that Phoenix has amnesia, this is a good excuse to give newbie players a cross-examination tutorial." *ding*
"Also, Announce the Truth 2002!" *3 wins*
(Objection! 2002) "Yep!" *ding*
(The debut of Payne's damage animation) *ding*
(Gumshoe: The date of the incident just happened to be the victim's birthday, sir.) "That's... definitely not a good... I can't even describe it." *no win*
"Pressing tutorial, sort of." *ding*
(The judge reminiscing about his youth and love life, and Phoenix's thoughts about it) "Hahahahahahahahahaha..." *ding*
(The judge commends Phoenix for a job well done) "Compliments!" *ding*
(Judge: This court finds the defendant, Maggey Byrde... Payne: Objection!) "Yeah... no. Still have to face the real murderer." *ding*
(In the lobby) "I would like to see what a Maggey Kick looks like." *ding*
"Maya!" *ding*
(Maya gives Nick a list of names) "Motive-shadowing!" *ding*
"Like Winston said, this guy has a tendency to rub people the wrong way, and it certainly shows with his narcissistic personality; couldn't ask for a more fitting tutorial villain." *ding*
"Also, his talk about glasses despite not wearing a pair. Definitely gonna come in handy." *ding*
(Pursuit ~ Questioned) "Well, it kinda works." *ding*
"So, Nick has the Steel Samurai theme as his ringtone, now? Was it Maya who did that? I bet it was Maya. Or maybe Ema? Either way, the Steel Samurai theme is a win." *ding*
(Wellington's breakdown) "Comeuppance." *ding*
"Confetti!" *ding*
(In the lobby) "It's nice that the game gives sort of a backstory for a recurring character." *ding*
(Phoenix's memory comes back) *ding*
Total Win Score: 39
Award: Burgers! (And maybe noodles...)
