This is the original trilogy with high resolution graphics and immersive hand drawn art. You begin starting as a the new law attorney Phoenix Wright from the beginning of his career in a quest to find the truth behind all of the cases in this wonderful trilogy brought to us by Capcom! I would truly adore some more Capcom arcade classics collections (hint hint). Prepare for intense courtroom cases by investigating crime scenes, collecting evidence, and questioning witnesses. Use evidence and the testimonies of witnesses to your advantage as you defend the innocence of your client. You must find the contradictions in witness testimonies with facts and evidence, or by pressing hard on the witnesses. The cases are interesting, the stories are intense and twisted, and only get better as you advance through the trilogy. Mega fans and new comers alike there's something truly great here at an amazing price point. This game will keep you quite busy with all the content if you plan on finishing it, and it's all about old school redone fun. I'm not giving this game a rating for graphics and sound. It's fun, creative, makes you really use your head to solve some daunting cases. It's Phoenix Wright in the way you've couldn't experience before now. I am a huge fan of classic and retro gaming especially when they can be had in trilogies or collections. If you like me love detective and law shows or movies, this is right up your alley. The game isn't for everyone but for those that love the genre, it's a game at the top of it's game. Two massive thumbs up!… Expand

    Capcom finally brings to Xbox one of the best visual novels sagas of the past, with its brilliant dialogues and great characters. Unluckily, thought, it feels like a weak porting effort, especially due to the lack of foreign (Italian, in our case) localization, a very penalizing issue for a text-filled title like this one.

    We've known courtroom dramas are exciting and engaging for a long time. Who hasn't been swept up in an episode or two of Law & Order: SVU while flipping through channels? There's something thrilling about watching a case unfold before your eyes and to see justice ultimately brought to light. The Ace Attorney Trilogy nails that feeling perfectly. It'll take you through captivating mysteries that have plenty of twists while still leaving you satisfied that you solved the crime rather than being drug through to the end. It'll let you pretend to be an attorney and find the gaps in testimony that reveal the true story. Most of all, it'll be an experience you won't find anywhere else.

    The appeal of this game is hard to narrow down; for the young or non-gamer, it is a very straightforward and extremely easy to play game, in fact you have one button to press and one joystick to move the cursor around for selection. The game can perhaps offer some challenges as it progresses. For experienced detective style gamers, intellectuals and those who want fast paced action, this is not the game for you. With that being said, this game is very different to many games out there and that can be a very welcomed change indeed.
