Of tough bosses and gay(?) lawyers...

First off, a link from Fandom_Lounge: What games have had a baddie that completely pwned you? The discussion's kinda winding down by now, but still, very fun read. :D


Also on the subject of gaming, I have finally broken my hiatus and started futilely trying to catch up with the gaming world again after months of not playing anything OH GOD MY GAME BACKLOG O_o;; playing anew by picking up the first Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (which I've had since at least last year, but had never played ^^;;).

I'm only on the second case, but thus far I like it - it has a good mix of humor and seriousness as far as I've gotten. Thoughts on it thus far (mild spoilers):

- Phoenix makes the most amusing faces whenever he's in a bind. Very expressive character - I like him.
- I haven't gotten to the actual gaygayGAY parts people talk about, but the characters thus far have been pretty... colorful in other ways, too. XD
- Great lines from the get-go. I had to laugh at "I find the witness' testimony to be quite... firm" bit from the judge in regards to April May. XD
- I was seriously NOT expecting them to off Mia on the very second chapter! :O Oh man, and I kinda liked her, too. :(
- I also did NOT expect that Phoenix would wind up getting accused of the crime and would have to defend himself! Oh man, it's going to be so freaking satisfying whenever I get around to continuing the chapter and get to pwn Edgeworth in the trial, hee.

And that's about it, for now. More thoughts on the game whenever I get around to playing some more.

As arcian says--it's not until trial 4 when you're like... AFOEKORKWKSFOK! Buttsex?!

I had a different friend tell me it was quite gay, and didn't believe her until that trial. So no, you're not missing any subtext. :D

Anyway, I'm glad you're playing! I think I'm going to sit down with game 2 for a bit, now. :D

...And Game 2 has pretty much this exchange:

"So, what happened to Edgeworth over the summer?"
"NEVER MENTION THAT NAME AGAIN BOO HOO HOO."
