    Hold It! Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney, is back with a new set of cases in the second lawyering adventure for the Nintendo DS, Ace Attorney: Justice for All (PW2). Read more

    • Excellent writing, Memorable characters, Engaging story

    8.3/10
    22 April 2007

    For those reasons, Fragland judges that; is a fun, immersive and well-filled adventure that at times reminds of the old PC adventures, combined with nicely created characters and a couple of excellent storylines. Gamers that have followed the previous case will experience some déjà-vu moments but newcomers can expect more of the same refreshing court cases with a sent of Japanese charm. Read more

    • Fascinating characters and fun storylines, Refreshing gameplay, Good muziek, Very charming and immersive atmosphere
    • Very linear, Little innovation compared to previous episode

    If there's a budding attorney locked away inside you, make sure you witness Phoenix Wright before he disappears into obscurity and bargain bins. Read more

    • Packed with unrivalled levels of humour, character and pace, A unique gaming experience
    • Certainly a niche title, Fairly similar to the previous game

    A good defense never rests. Wright proves he still has what it takes in Capcom’s localization of its second lawyer simulation. Read more

    • More goofy situations and banter!, Fun murder mysteries, Lengthy chapters, Still-satisfying user interface
    • Objections about grammatical mistakes, Features a somewhat weaker prosecuting attorney, Blatantly reused graphics, Sometimes recycles the first game’s plot devices

    The rookie Defense Attorney with serious cross-examination skills makes his second debut in his newest installment “Ace Attorney: Justice For All.” The storyline picks up about six months after he’s successfully won five big case victories and established himself quite a formidable reputation.

    10/10
    2 January 2007

    Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney was easily the sleeper hit of 2005 (2006 for you Europeans). It was originally released on the Game Boy Advance as Gyakuten Saiban, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice for All is the Nintendo DS remake of Gyakuten Saiban 2 for the same system. Justice for All lacks a new episode created to utilize the Nintendo DS’ features, but because the episodes are so much better than PWAA’s - even with it having the advantage of a new... Read more

    8 May 2007

    The second Phoenix Wright game to be released in the United States is a winner. With as much game play as most Playstation 3 games this little gem will be loved by gamers and even their parents. This is a solid game that will hopefully stay afloat in the United States for awhile. Even though I enjoy this game it is a little depressing that we have to keep paying $29.99 for these games and all Capcom did was add in one new feature. Read more

    The gameplay is simple and self-explanatory. It's presented in the same fashion as the first game. When you're investigating, you will be able to travel between different locations by just tapping the word "Move" with your stylus. If you want to talk to somebody, tap the word "Talk"; if you want to examine the scene, just tap "Examine"; and if you want to present evidence or somebody's profile to a character, just tap "Present".

    De nouvelles personnes sont dans le pétrin car inculpées d’un crime qu’elles n’ont pas commis. Qui d’autre que le meilleur avocat de la défense pour les servir ? Capcom remet donc le couvert et offre aux joueurs une nouvelle occasion de revêtir les traits du bon Phoenix Wright, toujours prêt à tout pour faire éclater les vérités au grand jour et éviter les barreaux à ses clients menacés et montrés du doigt par les terribles avocats de l’accusation.

    The only negative we can think of regarding this sequel, is that it doesn't add enough new things to the already established Phoenix Wright formula. But when you really stop and think about it, that is hardly a negative. Read more

  1. Sequel weaves in the paranormal

    6.0/10
    Reviewer: Agogo, Amazon
    1 January 2012 See Product at Amazon ($104.90)

    Phoenix Wright Series are classics ... The cherry on the cake would have to be it's original release Ace Attorney. This first sequel "Justice for all" makes references to the original stories, weaving a historical thread forward... It takes on a slight paranormal & psychic edge to solving cases, ... there were parts in which I lost interest however, it still has the PW draw. Read more or see product

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All is a visual novel adventure video game developed and published by Capcom for the Nintendo DS video game console. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All is an updated port of the Game Boy Advance game Gyakuten Saiban 2. Like Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, it features touch screen, microphone, and dual screen support, but does not have any new cases. The game is a single player game with a CERO: A / ESRB: T / OFLC: PG / PEGI: 12+ rating.

Features

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All features a change where a player can now present the profiles of people involved with the case, in addition to the evidence in the Court Record. The game features from first person perspective through four new cases with two distinct gameplay segments - In the Investigation Phase where players survey crime scenes, interview witnesses and gather evidence that will be used in court; in Court Phase, where players present findings from the investigation to support the case, listen to testimonies, examine witnesses, and determine fact from fiction to prove the client’s innocence. The game features the New Psyche-Lock, where players unlock several locks that have been placed over a witness’ heart in order to reveal the truth. The Psyche-Lock occurs only during the Investigation phase, and is observed when trying to following a line of questioning with a person involved in the case. When it is revealed that the person has one or more Psyche-Locks, the player can then initiate breaking of those locks. The player will be asked to point out evidence or a location to complete a question being asked; if the correct evidence is used, one Psyche-Lock will be broken or may lead to an additional question. If the incorrect choice is made, the player takes health damage. The player can cancel the breaking attempt if he feels he doesn’t have the right piece of evidence without any penalty; all of the locks will reappear the next time the breaking attempt is made.

With six months experience and five victories under his belt, the name Phoenix Wright is synonymous with "success". But with newspaper headlines screaming "Ghost Commits Perfect Murder" and "Flying Phantom at the Big Top", Phoenix’s new cases already seem unsolvable. And if that weren’t enough, there’s a ruthless new D.A. in town.

  • Four shocking new cases in first person perspective!
