Ace Attorney Investigations Collection Reviews

"T-Then are you proposing... that the killer is a prosecutor?" "What's wrong, Prosecutor?" Ten outta ten, right there and then.

names are a downgrade from the fan translation, in my opinion, but the games are preserved and can be experienced the way they were initially released right down to the pixel sprites, so thumbs up all around. calling a cow boy "John Marsh" shoulda stuck

NOTE: Game time doesn't count Miles Edgeworth (ME) since that one is played outside of Steam *cough cough*, and so it only consist of Prosecutor's Gambit (PG), but just double the time for roughly how long it takes in total. Finally done the whole of Miles' journey and growth alongside Gumshoe alongside some other new characters that pop around for multiple chapters, such a journey. Other reviews aren't wrong that ME might be a bit rough to enjoy, whilst PG is such a blast, but PG does have it's own annoying parts too especially the new Mind Chess might be a bit a pain at times. Always loved the soundtracks on climax part of the testimonies and stuffs. Now can finally move on to Apollo Justice and later on replay Great Ace Attorney for the memory. OBJECTION-LY RECOMMENDED!!!

A solid entry in the Ace Attorney series. Fun characters and music, and inventive scenarios. My main complaints are some what stupid mechanics like the "Mind Chess" and generally spotty writing. Unfortunately I had to resort to a walkthrough more than I would like to get through some of the esoteric leaps in logic and connections. That's always a sign of poor writing, which is sad for a series with generally pretty good writing. Overall though if you are a fan of the series pick this up as its fun to see Miles Edgeworth in action. You really get a deeper appreciation for his character.

First game was good. It seems that a lot of people think its a piece of shit. I personally think just because one game isn't better than the other doesn't make it awful. However, the second game was truly outstanding, and there's no denying it's way better than the first. I would easily consider the second game to have one of the greatest stories in ALL of ace attorney. Everything, from beginning to end, was extremely intriguing. I will say this about the first game however : it has one case that serves one purpose, and it's to introduce a new character (at least from what I could tell, because it didn't further the story very much). And I have to be real, it was pretty damn boring. Like there wasn't really any engagement there, it was a hassle, and at one point I sort of lost the plot because they kept piling on a bunch of information at a rapid rate at some point. Other than that, no real complaints for the first game. I would recommend buying this game on sale, but nonetheless, if you liked the Phoenix Wright trilogy, you will absolutely adore this one. I would still consider this game an absolute gem. If you like ace attorney, and are looking to play more of it, you will enjoy this collection, no question.

Good collection of both AAI games. Many say the first game isn't good but I enjoyed it quite a lot except the final case that dragged on for far too long, the 2nd game is considerably better though. Both games have good music and fun characters. The new visuals are a treat btw. The improvements to the animations in the new style made it difficult to return to the old style.

I’m honestly scared to write this review because game has 98% positive feedback but I’m all in no matter what. After finished AA Phoenix Wright, which is banger and one of my favorite games all time. I was in deep, looking for the next game all over internet. This lead to me this game. Played, finished and I have finally an answer. The game has 2 chapters and each has 5 episodes. First chapter of the game was total bs to me a biggest downgrade from Phoenix Wright and I couldn’t accept this bcz i paid 30 dollars for this bs and I don’t remember how many times I asleep during first chapter. It took me around 30 hours to complete first chapter and I hate the franchise overall because of this I wish they removed most of the parts and remade the first chapter. It is boring most of the time put the game in auto play eat, exercise, go to work, go to Costco buy a rotisserie chicken and come back home it would be still playing without no touch,A biggest BS let me play like in phoenix wright bro fr DULL gameplay(for first chapter only), too monotone, predictable, kay is maya v.2 but Edgeworth is edging he is cool and I was already empathize him a lot during phoenix wrigh that is reason why kept me going I was ready to uninstall game at any point, HOWEVER the second chapter of the game which is last 5 episodes of the game was pretty cool I have no hate to second chapter rather opposite they did a good job I liked a lot especially a last episode and I think reason why people give so many positive feedback is the ending I can relate but imo first 30 hrs of bs plot and dull gameplay not worth it I advise you watch from YouTube instead and that will be no difference at all, but if you still wanna see, go for it you might buy just for the second chapter!

A great follow up to the Phoenix Wright game. + Edgeworth the goat Would highly recommend

It's interesting. Solving crimes and other stuff. Alsoo the characters are really awesome! :D

worth getting for the character development of edgeworth + gumshoe alone AAI1 is an okay game, but AAI2 is possibly the best in the series also eddie fender is one of the best names (and characters) that this series has created
