Two Brief DS Reviews: "Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney" and "Myst"

I played the original Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and beat it as soon as I could. What an amazing game. So what does Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney do differently? Very little. That's what I like to hear.

The graphics for the cut scenes have improved slightly, but it's not notable unless you're a fanatic of the original game.

Apparently, Phoenix Wright has hung up his badge. I don't know why since I didn't play the two games in between, but regardless, it's time for Apollo Justice to come on the scene. First, that's an awesome name. Second, the game is awesome. No, I haven't beaten it, but I still played it pretty extensively. Apollo Justice doesn't change a good thing, which is the best decision Capcom could've made for the game.

Grade: A

In the other corner, we have Myst. The game was originally released for PC in 1993. The game was considered a classic. Thus, they took the next step by remaking it for the DS. What a poor decision.

The game is boring, tedious, and doesn't make me want to pick it back up. When I took Apollo Justice out of the DS and put in Myst, I found myself extremely disappointed in my decision. So I took the game back out after playing it for a few minutes and putting Apollo Justice back in. It isn't really impatience that led me to turn the game off. I can sit through hours of RPGs that require a lot of time and attention. This game induced what felt more like apathy. No thanks.

Grade: F
