Apollo Justice.
Finished the first chapter last night.
This game was a very pleasant surprise. I feared change, but change was good.

Just got it today and just finished the third Phoenix Wright about 5 minutes ago. I'm looking forward to it as it's the first game made specifically for the DS. And it has bishie twins!

What have all these other games been for?

They were GBA ports, if I'm not mistaken. So since this one is designed for the DS, you can do things like examine items in detail, dust for fingerprints, that sort of thing.

You're (mostly) correct; the first few games were ports of GBA titles. However, the fifth bonus case in the first game was added for the DS port and does use the DS functionality to deepen the gameplay experience. Sadly, although this was a tantalising glimpse at the possibilities of the new platform, no such new content was added in to the port of the second game :'(

Been playing BioShock recently. I've had the PC version for a while, but since my video card is a bit old, I could only manage to get a good framerate at a crappy resolution. So, I ditched it and picked up the 360 version, which has been in my console ever since. I dig this game lots.

Oh, and I guess I should actually say what I'm playing...

I'm going through completing Vagrant Story at the minute. Enjoying it, but the occasional times where I have to spend a half hour on the weapon combination interface in order to soup up my armory through mindless trial and error is a bit annoying. The game could have done with some kind of intelligent suggestion script that told you what kinds of combinations wouldn't suck rather than making you do all the legwork to find them.

Still, the storytelling is excellent and that's what I look for in games so I can't complain.

M2TW: Complete Pack. is out. If I can't find a deal for a boxed copy, I may, again, spread my self for steam. Er, I mean, buy stuff over their service. Or something.
