Game Replay
Mar. 10th, 2010 06:48 pmI'm probably the only RPG fan in the world who has access to a PS3 (and/or XBox) and is WILLINGLY not playing FFXIII right now. Personally I didn't feel the need to drag my PS3 home with me for one week, plus I never beat a FF game anyway, so what's the point of grabbing it right away? I'll just hold out until next week and become a pokemon trainer.
So instead of playing FFXIII, I've decided to replay GS/PW4, aka Apollo Justice: Attorney at Law. I borderline prefer this game to the other PW games (blasphemy, I know), but that's only b/c I prefer the way these characters all interact with each other (the main characters at least). I LIKE the fact that not everyone is out to get Apollo, that the Detective is somewhat competant, and that Phoenix Wright is borderline one of the scariest people I've ever met, and that him and Trucy combined are the greatest con team of all time. Plus I WAY prefer Trucy over Maya (Trucy actually DOES something--she's smart and she actually CARES about the investigation--Maya only cared about what shiny/interesting thing popped in front of her at the time [or hamburgers/hot dogs]).
I breezed through the first case, only getting hung up on one of the parts (probably b/c I knew about the perceive feature and was trying to use it before it was introduced), and now I'm on Day 2 of the second case, finishing up the investigation part. Considering I haven't touched the PW games in easily 2 years, I'm surprised at just how much I remember--what I need to find, what items provide amusing dialogue, etc.
Playing it again is also inspiring me to make more animated icons of the AJ characters for myself. That just requires me to be not lazy... (like that will happen). In all seriousness, though, I need more than 4 LJ icons.
