Everything GREAT About Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney!


Episode 1: Turnabout Trump

Spoilers!

(Obviously...)

(The case opens with an artist in a studio) "Final case-shadowing!" *ding*

"The style of music for this game is very different from the last three." *ding*

"Kristoph Gavin." *ding*

(Apollo's introduction to the player) *ding*

"Hobo Phoenix." *ding*

(Apollo: ...OK. I need to focus. First trial, here comes Justice!) "Self-preparation!" *ding*

"Court Begins music... with an intro? Sweet!" *ding*

(Winston Payne's new look) "Hahahahahahahahahahahaha..." *ding*

"Apollo Justice's first onscreen appearance." *ding*

"Also, love the horns." *ding*

(Kristoph: Only the cards, their backs wreathed in blue flame, know their final outcome.) "Poetic, though it turns out to be a slip of the tongue later on." *ding*

(Cross-Examination ~ Moderato 2007) "Yep!" *ding*

(Announce the Truth 2007) "Also yep!" *ding*

"The player is given an option on whether or not to go over how a cross-examination works." *ding*

(Phoenix explaining the use of two different colored cards) "Making sure there's no cheating going on... until we learn about Trucy's involvement." *ding*

"Apollo's theme!" *4 wins*

(The judge reprimands our hero for being loud) "Ha ha ha... Poor Apollo. All that vocal training for nothing." *ding*

(Apollo suspects Olga Orly before she even testifies) "Our new lawyer is pretty smart; as soon as Olga said she was in the basement where the murder took place, Apollo immediately suspects her!" *ding*

"It's amazing how Olga manages to catch all those things with her eyes closed." *ding*

"I like that they have Apollo think a little before he voices his objection; makes him very different from Phoenix." *ding*

"Yep! Phoenix has a daughter! And she's an aspiring magician, too!" *ding*

(Pursuit ~ Overtaken) "Yes, yes, YES!" *3 wins*

(Phoenix: Objection!) "Sweet!" *ding*

"Also, his insistence for the trial to continue despite his innocence being established shows not only how much he wants a certain someone on the defense's bench brought to justice, but also to insure that the wrong suspect isn't going to jail for a crime they didn't commit." *ding*

(Olga's transformation) "Yep!" *ding*

(Judge: Indeed... Getting caught red-handed at cheating would cast doubt on all his prior wins...) "False evidence-shadowing." *ding*

"A preview of the Perceive mechanic!" *ding*

"Also, the Perceive theme." *ding*

(Thrill Theme ~ Suspense) *5 wins*

"Here's another first: someone other than Payne's star witness is accused of being the culprit. And it just so happens to be Apollo's employer!" *ding*

(Back in the lobby again) "Our first-and very brief-meeting with Trucy Wright." *2 wins*

(Objection! ~ 2001) "Nostalgia!" *ding*

(Phoenix giving Kristoph the pointer finger) *5 wins*

"Crime scene recreations!" *ding*

(Kristoph's breakdown) "Yep!" *3 wins*

(Payne: What about me? Don't I get to prosecute anyone!?) "Hahahahahahahaha... Too bad this is his last chronological appearance, apparently. Who knows? Maybe we will see Winston Payne again." *ding*

(Phoenix: A dark time is coming for our legal system...) "The dark age of the law, and it really shows here than it does in Dual Destines." *ding*

"Confetti!" *ding*

(Phoenix admits the locket with his daughter inside is really Smith's.) "True identity-shadowing!" *ding*

"And now comes the big shocker: our new defense attorney won his first case by unknowingly using evidence forged by his client! Phoenix Wright, falsifying evidence? What happened to him seven years ago? Thankfully, he doesn't stay this way after everything clears up at the end of the game." *a win for the later games*

(Apollo punching Phoenix) "Payback." *ding*

Total Win Score: 57

Award: Chords of Steel! ("My name is Apollo Justice, and I'm fine!")
