I spent most of my downtime this weekend playing Ace Attorney Investigations, and I've made it about midway into the 3rd chapter. So far it's good. It's really not remarkable different from the Phoenix Wright games, though it's a little more linear. You don't have to pick and choose which locations you travel to in order to start questioning people. You pretty much do all your investigating and questioning at one stage/level at a time before going to the next one.
As far as the other new changes, I'm not a real fan of the "logic" system. At some times it's such a jump I can't figure out how anyone could draw the conclusions that Miles does and at others its so glaringly obvious I don't understand how it's considered a puzzle that needs to be figured out. On the other hand the "deduce" feature, where you match up a piece of your evidence with a feature of a crime scene, is great and makes a lot of sense. That should be something that gets carried over.
But the main question would probably be, "is it fun?" and to that I'd say of course. Once again it's the characters that make this game good. The Gumshoe/Edgeworth relationship is as amusing as ever, Kay does a pretty good job in the role of the plucky teen sidekick, new the supporting cast is full of the usual assortment of goofballs, and plenty of old familiar faces show up for a cameo in this one too. I'm not sure how good all of the cases are so far (Chapter 2 was kind of weak) but overall, still fun for the fans.
I'm in the plane now, just checking out the gift shop. That stewardess with the teddy bear is hot, well the outfit is
I'm with you, it's the same thing basically, not that different from Phoenix Wright. Its not a radical departure or anything. So its good. Story hasn't done anything for me so far though.
I'm going to an anime/comic convention in about 3 weeks, and I can almost guarantee that there will be a girl in that costume. And I'll be there with camera in hand.
Chapter 3 is pretty good. Some events happen in Chapter 2 and that builds in Chapter 3 and then things start finally getting interesting.

Endless Ocean Blue World
Or with something in hand...
Oh yeah, that too. But Heavy Rain first.

Bastard.
Has anyone tried the Turbo mode of opera 10?
It's damned fine, you click a tab on the bottom left of the browser to turn it on. It compresses images but makes browsing 3X faster. Its slick so far.
i was just looking at those 3 icons on the bottom left the other day (opera link, opera unite, opera turbo), all 3 were disabled. what's the price for the increased speed?

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
Images look like ass with Opera Turbo. The faster the speed, the worse they will look.
I tried it on my sister's computer. She only has dial-up, so I figured it would be a nice performance improvement, but it didn't work. It said it was unable to connect to Opera's servers or something. I guess it only works with broadband, which is stupid, IMO.
Seems to work great with broadband. You get worse image quality though. It only loads flash video when you click on it which is cool as you dont get the performance hit for random flash ads and the like.
You can set it to auto so it only comes on when your connection drops speed. Its very cool for me at the moment. Perfect for browsing.
I works fine with dial-up. Your problem is elsewhere. The downsides are first, privacy related, as it routes you through Opera's servers in order to provide the service. There's no specific indication to think anything bad's going on, but it's a concern anytime you're going through a middle-man. SSL/TLS connections are not compressed or passed through their servers.
Additionally, if you're on a good connection, Turbo can actually slow things down. Since you have to go through another server, that's another bottleneck.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileWell, her dial-up service is MSN, so I guess that could be the problem.
No, probably not

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileOooooo a big announcement from Capcom coming in April. I wonder what it might be. I'm really hoping it's a Darkstalkers game done in the same style as Street Fighter IV. That would be awesome.
Yeah the lack of matchmaking in ODST really hurt the final product. It certainly would have made a bigger seller and would have given the game a longer lifespan online. Halo Reach will certainly rectify that though. I'm so looking forward to playing the beta.
A $50 Natal would definitely sit well with me. Please make it happen Microsoft.
Well, if it's not MSN, then I'm going back to my original opinion that Opera Turbo sucks.
