Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Case 2

So now, first, let's put up the usual important infos:

Case 1-2
Defendant: Ms.Maya Fey, Mr.Phoenix Wright
Charge: Murder
Victim: Ms. Mia Fey
Prosecutor: Mr. Miles Edgeworth
Defense: Mr. Phoenix Wright
Witnesses: Detective Gumshoe, Ms. April May, Mr. Redd White

Yup, just starting the second case and what you see? Mia getting murdered by a suspicious guy with purple hair. You can already tell this one is going to be more personal for Phoenix since his mentor just got murdered. You will also meet 3 new important characters, Maya Fey, who is Mia's hyperactive younger sister, Detective Dick Gumshoe, who is the clueless but loveable officer and Miles Edgeworth, the genious prosecutor.

As the case goes, you can somehow see a couple of thing that doesn't make any sense. The first one being, WHY in the name of the Judge would Maya murder her sister? No one in the case seem to bother with the MOTIVE behind the murder! And why didn't they take the fingerprints on the clock/statue? Maya had no gloves when they arrested her! She couldn't have done it! It doesn't make sense at all!!! Motive alone makes Maya the less suspicious of all... but it wouldn't be fun if it made sense, would it? Anyway, this is also where you'll see that the first case was way easier than this, especially since Edgeworth is the prosecutor. He will actually give you a challenge for once compared to Payne. You will also encounter the main witness, April May... Yeah she has the looks(By looks I mean boobs, of course), but it is really only what she have, since you will soon find a wiretap in her hotel room... now THAT is suspicious, and you will also expose her for what she is in court: A manipulative BITCH(.... not the worse though) Anyway, with her exposure also come another vital clue, there was a man staying with her! Which makes him a suspect!

The next day will mostly consist of finding out who exactly IS this man. It will turn out to be Redd White, someone who you'll instantly like to punch the hell out of him!(If you remember the intro sequence, you know you have the murderer in front of you). In the end, he'll even end up accusing Phoenix of being the murderer! What sense does that make!?!? None of course, that's why this game is so entertaining!

There's also one thing that pisses me off about the last evidences to present.... I mean, how stupid are the Judge,Defense,Prosecution to not even take a second look at the back of the ?%&?%& receip! It was so obvious that this piece of evidence was suspicious but of course, Phoenix needed Maya to channel Mia who in turn told him..... I really felt like I got robbed out of my victory so pathetically!..... ANYWAY!

So now, we end up knowing that Maya can channel Mia when needed and that the Fey Law and Co. Offices is now Wright Law and Co. Offices. Anyway, enough with my rants!

Tune in tomorrow for Case 3!!!(May be delayed if I don't find the time.)
