Hm. Weird. Anyway, finally finished this and loved every second of it. They subvert a lot of past Ace Attorney tropes and give the series a much needed breath of fresh air, which imo had hit a wall post Apollo Justice. I'd say both games combined are as good, if not better than the original trilogy. I would love to see these characters return for more adventures.

It has groundbreaking mechanics that I wish I had seen in later Ace Attorney games (considering they were implemented in 3DS before 2 other sequels). The cases are fun, and the mysteries interesting, since you can see that there is a bigger plot, something that in the first trilogy was distributed in all the games in one or two cases, and that felt fragmented and left out.In this game, the cases are much longer, and that made me a bit tedious, but as a game, honestly, he is the best Ace Attorney. Maybe the crossover with Professor Layton will just outweigh it, but it's a crossover, and it borrowed a ton of ideas from The Great Ace Attorney.You should ignore most of the negative comments that only criticize the difficulty of the game (which is very good, albeit with a somewhat annoying tutorial).

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is two deduction-based adventure games in one, set over a hundred years prior to the original Phoenix Wright trilogy. With improved graphics, fun new characters and enthralling cases to solve, it more than lives up to the legacy of its classic predecessors.

Have played all the Ace Attorney games including the 2 Edgeworth Investigation games and I have to say this is the best AA game they've madeHave played all the Ace Attorney games including the 2 Edgeworth Investigation games and I have to say this is the best AA game they've made to date. It's not perfect, but the story is very interesting and the characters are fun.

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles isn’t just a reminder of why the series as a whole is beloved, but also a reaffirmation that video games can be capable of so much more as an entertainment medium. Straddling the line somewhere between book and interactive movie, The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles takes players through case after case packed with wonderful characters, stories, and clever brain teasers. Although adventure games/visual novels aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, if you’ve been looking to try one for the first time or give them another shot, this is the game. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is a blast.
