Ace Attorney Investigations
As of 5 minutes ago, I'm officially on the last case of the game. It's been a really fun ride. Like I said in my previous mini-rant about AAI, it took me a little while to warm up to it, but now it's become one of the most fun PW games I've ever played. This, however, doesn't make it better, simply enjoyable. I miss my Feenie (and Apollo), but having Edgey around is a wonderful thing. All of the characters, with the exception of maybe Cammy (and the Amano's) I've found to be awesome. Granted, Capcom clearly ran out of names by case 4, but the names aside the characters are awesome. I'm really liking Lang and his relationship with Shih-Na, even if Shih-Na had about 8 lines.
But I think that my favorite part of the game is that the cases are all interlaced. PW cases have, with few exceptions (Case 3-3 & 3-4 come to mind), been stand-alones, although characters reappear in different settings. This game, on the other hand, has each case sort of flow into the other, one large over-arching story mixed in with each, full-length and equally enjoyable case. This time, when characters reappear, they have a purpose. You recognize them from previous cases, and little things that were thrown at you in previous cases suddenly take on new meaning. It's a new spin on PW, one that I am really liking.
I've found some more easter eggs in case 3 (I only spotted one in case 4), as well as some I realized I forgot in the previous post, so here they are:

I've found some more easter eggs in case 3 (I only spotted one in case 4), as well as some I realized I forgot in the previous post, so here they are:
King of Prosecutor’s Shield
Edgey’s pretty puffy shirt (maybe not a throwback as it was in his office during Case1-5 and it would be weird if it suddenly wasn’t there)
Steel Samurai
Gatewater hotel (where Case 2-4 took place with Matt Engarde)
Gavinners (Gavin’s band)
Jake Marshall’s cactus
Troupe Gramarye
Max Galactica
Jammin’ Ninja
Precinct chief (guy in the background of the police station by the window that would say random thing if you examined him)
Phoenix, Maya, and Pearl in a boat
Viola/Tender Lender
What Edgeworth did in the elevator during the DL-6 incident
The fire extinguisher
I have a third mini-rant, but I think I should save it for when I've finally beaten the game, as well as my final thoughts on the matter.
