I can't wait for the extra case to be made available.

Who else has been playing this?

I'm really interested in trying out this series but a lack of a handy collection to catch up with the story is holding me back. I think they had something like that on iOS before but that's not an option for me.

Loved the first three games, haven't played Apollo or ME. Definitely want to get on this - Phoenix all the way! Cracking review Adam-san.

SirLink - have you considered the WiiWare versions?

Jorge - thanks Smilie Are you playing through AA5 now? I'd say AA4 is a must before doing AA5...AAI: ME is well written and the Logic system is great (glad they brought it across in some form for AA5).

Has anyone checked the eShop charts to see how this is performing?

I haven't played any since the first, but is still want to pick this up. I figured it wouldn't matter too much missing the others, I could get used to the characters, I think,

I haven't turned my DS off since I started it. I'm on the fourth turnabout - it's addictive, if yet better than previous ones. It does ramp up the length of the cases pretty quickly though. I'm really hoping two of my favorite characters turn up at some point too >.<

Bloody brilliant game and overall a worthy addition to the mainseries, especially coming from the team who did the (imo) sub-par Investigations.

I do have some criticisms in that the crime scenes sometimes feel more complicated-for-the-sake-of-complicated rather than the genius some of the previous games. And it sometimes feels like every moment in every case is a "just barely clinging" moment that previous games only used sometimes.. it makes it feel less desperate when it happens every few seconds y'know? Almost every objection is almost instantly 1-up'd, you never really feel like a smart lawyer despite playing as smart lawyers. It seemingly has but a fraction of the "ownage" moments that a lot of people loved about the previous games.

However noting that I've thought back and realised that it's a really appropriate way to tell a story about the dark age of the law. I think I'll be replaying this soon after the DLC case comes out in order to re-evaluate how things are told.

And despite those criticisms I thoroughly loved it from beginning to end and desperately want a 6th installment soon, if only because I think the new AA team are more likely to eventually match the quality of something like AA3 if they keep trying because they've already improved in leaps and bounds.

I downloaded the demo and liked it, but then I balked at the price for it; $30, which I checked, it looks like it's around the same price over there in Pounds. That felt like way too much for a digital download; about the same price as a physical copy would cost. I was expecting to to be closer to $15-20. Would you say it's worth it, though?

Definitely worth it, considering previous entries to the series have been retail games sold at full price (and this would have been too if Capcom thought it would be more successful), this is by far the cheapest release in the series despite it being the longest in terms of length.

As an Ace Attorney fan, I couldn't go wrong!
