Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy

Streamlined trials notwithstanding, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy is a fantastic way to live or re-live the best Phoenix Wright games in the series. The captivating stories and kooky cast of characters are completely intact, all with a dazzling new coat of 3D paint that makes them look better than ever. Those who have never played the games before will have no objection from me should they decide to proceed down this line of questioning.

I am truly pleased with the quality of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, from its gameplay mechanics to its remastered visuals, to its sound effects and soundtrack. This iteration is easily the best the franchise has received, and even if you recently played the DS or WiiWare ports of the games, I strongly recommend that you pick this up as it will offer a whole different experience for these classic three titles.

There is, of course, the off-chance that the trilogy might be someone's first exposure to the life and times of Phoenix Wright, or at least their first exposure in a great many years, and it's as refined a jumping-off point for that as can be expected. For anyone for whom this is their third, four, or fifth time around, there's nothing new to discover, aside from the convenience of having all three games in one handy digital package.
