GUYS, SONIC 06 14 BOOM: RISE OF LYRIC IS ONLY $30 AND I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN HELP MYSELF!
I was given a $25 Amazon gift card and the decision was between Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, and Professor Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright, all of which are currently $30, but...Sonic Boom. I mean, this may seem like a joke, what with that game being terrible and all, but it's like...after playing through Sonic 06, I felt empty. I mean, I feel like that after I finish a lot of shows, movies, games, etc. that I'm really engaged. It's somewhat sad but mostly fulfilling, and it creates this desire for more even if I feel the experience was fine on its own. That's what it was like beating Sonic 06, minus the fulfillment. But when I saw Boom, it felt like that desire was amplified. Like I NEEDED to play that game, and though every mention of the game by me is a joke, it's generally a half-joke. Because to find out that there's a new bad Sonic game, one that's miraculously worse than the disasterpiece that was Sonic 06, it riled something in me. I dunno. Maybe it's because I enjoy bad games since they're often blaring examples of bad game design and objects of time constraints ripe for analysis. That and they can often be laughably enjoyable. But I really do want the other games. I'm not really sure what to go with :/ |
I didn't play Sonic '06, but that looked like it had parts that were interestingly stupid at least (like being able to walk super slow on loops, the "IT'S NO USE" meme, etcetera). And i've heard very little good about Sonic Boom for Wii U, either, so I don't think i'd want to go in for it even if I had one.
But of those, I think you would likely be better off with Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, I never played that series but it looks like one you might get more enjoyment out of. |
I actually really want to play Sonic Boom also, lol! There's something about playing a broken game that's just hilarious.

NEP NEP NEP NEP Buy Nep, obvious choice is obvious. |
Because I haven't played the older games, I decided to buy Apollo Justice due to it having loose connections to the other games in the series, and cause I wanted to play an Ace Attorney game. So, can anyone tell me why people hate it? The story is brilliant, I'm loving the gameplay, and the characterizations are brilliant. The game is a bit hard to deduce for some parts, currently on the Wocky case, but other then some obscure cases its really great in picking you up and having you chain facts back and forth. Not to mention Klavier is the best freaking part of this game, Aschtung Baby!
Seriously though, if I love it this much, will I love the rest of the games even more since its the "weakest"? |

But to answer your question...no? I mean, it really all depends on your experience with the other games, I don't think your experience with AJ will be a huge influence on your experiences with the other games, but it's just best to go in without expectations. Quote:
That or buy something unexpected. Danball Senki W is looking quite nice. Amazon Prime and a good price, too (both of which are vital for an import). |

I had borrowed the first two Ace Attorneys in the past and played the third one through... less than official means >__> but now with the Dual Destinies and the Trilogy release being on the 3DS, I went and bought Apollo alongside those two. Going to be playing through all five games now. Working on the trilogy release right now |
You know, I'm looking over the list for Wii U Virtual Console and I'm fucking mad.
When are the N64 and Gamecube titles going to show up? |
Klavier's problem isn't so much his character, but rather he is an awful prosecutor because he just helps you and holds your hand. Pretty much every other prosecutor in the series are AGAINST you, and that's great! It makes things more exciting and tense.

The demand is there, and they're as capable of adding support for both of those as they are adding GBA games to the 3DS eshop. That said, they've been doing pretty well with eshop sales and are currently focusing on GBA releases, so, for now, they don't really financially have a reason to add them. |

Neptunia Re;Birth 1 has been confirmed to coming to PC, so I want to say wait out for that in regards to that title. It's definitely a great game though. |
While I do find it weird that the prosecutor is all buddy buddy, it adds to Apollo's helplessness, and it makes it all the more charming, personally.

Hm...guess that sticks it down to these two: Sonic Boom and PLvsPW. I've heard what you said about the game a gpod number of times, the whole idea that they don't really combine the mechanics and it feels like "two halves of a whole game" rather than "two halves joined together to form a whole game". But, nonetheless, it's a good game. And Sonic Boom is...well, it's Sonic Boom. And that's the appeal for me. It's terrible and I love it. And one thing it has over PLvsPW is that it's on sale. Hm...Thanks for the heads up, I imagine I'll have it figured out by New Years Day. |
Seeing all the Apollo Play is great, recently picked it up again after a long time of not playing it and am on case 3 now. The song is the only annoying part tbh. I like it far more than the 3DS game, I really couldn't get into it at all.
I didn't like the PLXPW game at all. I would go for BOOM all the way. |
I quite liked Dual Destinies. It had an infectiously likable detective, a fantastic presentation (seriously, they took the transition from 2D to 3D by the horns and went all out, even trying new things rather than simply spray painting over the animations and the like- it looks and feels great), an overall enjoyable cast, and a DLC case that managed to be one of the most enjoyable, hardhitting, and hilarious cases in the game. And of course, the orchestrated music (I actually think that, prior to release, that was what I was most excited about).
As for where I'd place it among the games...hard to say. Of them, it's currently the only one I've only played once (well, that and AAI), but it's a bold game and it hits a lot of strides in making itself a game that truly takes advantage of what the 3DS has to offer. |
I love Shadow of Mordor's photo taker.
So...whatcha thinkin' about? My Caragorn buddy helping me avenge machomuu's death by a captain |
What happened to the Splash? D:
