he taunts you about him having the world under his thumb, and then frames you for the murder

Phoenix gives up

In general: When I play at night and it's quiet, presenting the Magatama to someone with Psyche-locks gave me the creeps, especially when the background changes colour.

1-2: When Redd White turned Phoenix into the "murderer", I was like...ohhh damn how am I supposed to get out of this one?

1-4: Opening scene showing Edgeworth with the gun. I was like...whaaaaaa? It was quite suspenseful and I couldn't wait to see what was going on.

2-4: When Maya got kidnapped. When she was called to receive a call, I was already suspicious but didn't expect her to be kidnapped altogether.

3-3: Viola scared me a bit when she randomly appeared in the restaurant. It was just freaky O_o

3-5: Pretty much everything here was either somewhat scary or suspenseful. There were so many unanswered questions that were waiting to be answered and weren't until the end of the case.

-(1-4) When Manfred was anywhere around Phoenix
-(3-4) When Dahlia returned
-(2-4) Obviously, the whole end part where everything went up and down a lot in plot

De Killer's appearance as a darkened butler creeped me out some, especially since his mouth doesn't move ever.

When Larry first showed his sketch, they did that huge *boom* sound effect and everyone was speechless with their "..."s.. At first I thought the picture implied that that woman was on fire AND flying. .. that took me completely by surprise (I think I was even stunned for a second), and I couldn't stop thinking how dark that whole scenario looked o_o..

Matt Engarde's Psyche Lock. That proved how scary the game could be.

Dahlia did her whole MMMMIIIIAAAAA FFFFFEEEEEYYYYYY

in 1-2 when he "gives up" and in 3-2 when he starts thinking to himself about how doomed Ron is.

In Turnabout Big Top I really loved Regina, but I was terrified that she was the real killer, and I was also afraid that Maggey really /did/ murder Glen in Recipe for Turnabout.

I didn't know what the hell Phoenix was talking about when Gumshoe got into his accident; how we could find him. So right before Franny showed up, I thought I was pretty much doomed.

when you hear gunshots and all... and Maya is in the room... and then she has blood all over her......

when I saw the picture with Maya covered with blood, I was about to put down the game and never play again. It creeped me out so much! Even now, I cant bring myself to replay that case. [the picture that Lotta took with Ini's face showing]

I found it funny that Ini's face in the picture looked a LOOOOT like Mimi Miney's face. Hmm...

You don't know when Matt is going to be Guilty or Not during court at the very end. All the waiting for the end and all the near-loss moments... Edgey made up for it, though!

Got in an accident and went crazy. He was just your average guy until then... But I never thought serial murder would get into Phoenix Wright.

Well, Ini looks alot more like Mimi when she opens her eyes and starts to get angry near the end of the case. Hehe :]

He killed like, 6 people. 1 for seeing the accident, and like, 5 others for watching him bury the body. One of them was a kid, I think.

What Maya looked like when channeling Mia. Or Mia looked when she was in Maya. Whatever. That did NOT look normal. Those...you know. Those.

I started cussing loudly when I got the guilty verdict in the middle of the case. I really thought I'd screwed up badly.

Gant finding you in his office the second time when you find all the clues. One minute he's not there and then suddenly he is. Made me jump.

Morgan in jail during the very last scene freaked me out pretty bad. There was something about the look on her face and the darkness mixing that just got to me.

Dahlia coming out of Maya's body. Evil demons are by definition scary.

when everyone runs back to the cavern after the earth quake and phoenix says something like, "then, we saw something that no one had supected". suddenly, 5 psychelocks appear...

Just the whole charade about Phoenix and Miles working together to prolong the case as long as possible was really suspenseful to me. And hilarious, because the judge had no idea what was going on about Maya's kidnapping or Engarde's guilt.

1-5 When Gant finds you in his room
2-4 When Maya was kidnapped
3-3 When you are in the loan offices and need to look around. I kept thinking Viola was going to murder me
3-5 When I suddenly saw the bridge on fire

When you get a guilty verdict, when you get tasered, when Edgeworth's past is revealed, when Maya sacrifices herself so you can stay....Yeah. But most especially the guilty. Cause it has the same text as when you normally screw up, AND it faded out...I was literally shaking when Larry ran up and saved my butt. I had to put down the DS and tell Dad what happened.. This also applied to the taser.

Five Psychelock thing actually made me just cuss the game out MAJORLY

Morgan was in jail and talking about how Pearl would get her chance...
