Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth Critic Reviews

Not only has it established a winning cast of characters, and a formula for fun-packed gameplay, its latest title, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth shows that there are still lots of ways both cast and formula can be effectively improved and expanded upon.

Edgeworth's personality spreads in many different parts of the plot showing the insight of a prosecutor at a crime scene and his cool temperament, paradoxically, is far from cool action, providing, through Rebuttals, the security needs for someone who fears the absence of courts and the ("almost?") total absence of Wright.

Long time fans will be pleased with this entry in the Ace Attorney series, and it's a quality game for newcomers as well, although it is not the best entry point for the series. It's definitely what I'd call fan service for those who have stuck by the series, and it's great that fan loyalty pays off for this game.

Ace Attorney Investigations is a fantastic game for fans of the series. It expands the mythos, features a novel take on familiar gameplay, and stars a fan-favorite character.

Ace Attorney is one of the best series on the DS, and this iteration is no exception. If you like the Phoenix Wright games, Miles Edgeworth will prove just as awesome.

No objection needed. Exciting and extensive cases with fascinating characters and a humorous presentation. We approve.

While not, by far, the revolution in the series Capcom promised us, Investigations is probably the best Ace Attorney yet. Those which are introduced as new elements, are actually better versions of the old, loved ones, and all in all this is a good thing. Furthermore, Edgeworth is a very well crafted character and he alone could justify this new episode. Another great game in the series!

The kick up the backside the series needed. It's a little low on laughs but great fun nonetheless.

The mechanics may not seem as new, and you're always several steps ahead of the story, but the eccentric cast of characters in Ace Attorney is always fun to meet again.

Miles Edgeworth's take on the franchise doesn't pack on too many surprises, but is nonetheless faithful to the tenets that make Ace Attorney great.

An interesting plot full of twists and well played, colorful characters make this game one of the best chapters of the saga, and not one you want to miss.

Although this fifth entry is not the series' strongest, it's a solid and worthy purchase for fans of the genre or casual gamers who are looking for an entertaining story.

This is a nice, long adventure, one that feels more engaging than past games in the series. Replay, as always with the Ace Attorney games, is quite limited.

New environments, mechanics, immersive story and the standard gameplay for the Ace Attorney series: Ace Attorney is always fun to meet again.

Clever deduction sequences, likable characters, some of the best writing in videogames.

It's bursting with happiness. And so am I when I play it.

Fans of the Ace Attorney series and graphic-text adventure games in general will find little to object to in this excellent title.

This madcap adventure tests your detective skills in brand new environments with an immersive story, and a twist on old gameplay elements keeps things interesting.

It's a bit ironic, to me, that I'm now complaining about an Ace Attorney game being too easy, but hey -- given how arcane the adventure games of old often got, I'm glad this is the worst thing I can say about AAI: ME.

It has the clever writing and style that made the previous games so amazing.
