So, do you think they're the kinda games whre you replay them over and over or are they the kinda game you only play once?

I made this because i really enjoy replying the games but my Brother critisized me for it, i wanted to see if anyone else did.

My favourite cases to replay are: 2-1, 4-1, 2-2, 3-2, 3-1, 3-4, 3-5

I've replayed 1-2 about 4 times now i really love it, especially the theme tune and it's so sad at the end but also happy.
I've replayed 3-5 3 times even though it's so long i still love it because you get to play as edgeworth!
I'm gonna get round to replaying 4-4 because it's awesome!

I think they're replayable. I actually (having finished GS4/AJ) have begun to replay the series... more or less from the beginning. I say more or less because I can't locate my copy of GS1 (I'm not really thrilled about that) so I'm starting from GS2 and hopefully will play GS1 next (if not, that means I'm in trouble.)

The point is, I think they're replayable, but more for character interaction than for... well, any new discoveries. XD

Some are more replayable than others. For example, 3-4, 3-5, and 4-4 are more replayable than 2-3 and 3-3.

I never think they are not replayable. =v= I beat all cases more than twice, more than three times for some certain cases. It's just fun.

Some cases are more replayable than others (for instance, I could probably play 2-4 and 3-5 ad-nauseum, but I'm on 3-2 right now and holy cow am I bored... although Ron helps things a bit). There are some cases that I will probably never ever touch again (2-3, I'm looking at you). I love replaying my favorite parts of the game, and even though some of the entertainment is lost because I already know what's coming, I'm still entertained.

This is off-topic, but... Wind, is Phoenix being hanged in your avatar? :eh?:

My brother teases me because I do replay them. Certain cases get replayed more then others (1-4, 3-5, 4-1, and 4-4 as a few examples, but there are more that I replay). To be fair though, I tend to reread books as well though so I'm not sure I'm the best example. Even if I know the answers, I like seeing the characters interactions (and it's helpful to replay them when working on a fanfic to get a good feel for the characters' personalities. I can never get them quite right after the first play through). :yuusaku:

I tend to forget what a lot of the contradictions are and what evidence to present where, so it never fells boring to me, playing through again. Although sometimes knowing what's coming causes me to mess up, since I'll try to prove certain things that come up later earlier on in the trial.

Also, like Mia_Fey said, replaying is great for getting a better feel for personalities for writing and the like.

Yes! This! I'm actually replaying 4-4 right now (specifically the Mason System) and am writing a loose transcript of the case for the sake of a pair of plot bunnies bouncing around in my head. I might not ever write the stories, but it'll still be nice to have the transcript for reference.

That's probably my biggest complaint with the entire series: the inability to jump to specific parts of the game after you've completed the first play-through. :P

I agree with you there. There have been multiple times where I only needed one particular part, but to get there I had to replay the whole case which can be troublesome. :yuusaku: Oh well. What can you do? :yogi:

It's funny...the only way I reread books is to buy and read them again. This isn't the same as Phoenix Wright. I do watch movies over again, so I wonder...

Phoenix Wright is like a good book to me. I don't re-read it a lot, but sometimes it's great to go back and do the series again. I can't just pick my favorite cases to play though, it's either all or nothing (I erase the game save to get the full experience).

I only noticed one bit worth replaying and that was when GS3 was introduced.

Play through 3-5 and then with everything absorbed, replay all of 3-1 and you'll never look at it the same way again. :garyuu:

I thought it was Mia going after her mother... Mia knew Misty was still alive. Misty was just hiding somewhere.

Fix'd. That one sheds a lot of light on the situation. And especially why Mia is so scarred in 3-1...

The games definately are replayable. If I become angered because of the game I'm currently playing, (The World Ends With You) I may replay AJAA. I've considered replaying 1-4 as well, even though I just finished it two weeks ago.

Oh man... the characters and their animations, the dialogue, the music... how could I only play the series once? I've played through all of AA1 three times, JFA twice, 1-1 enough times to make me sick, 2-1 three times, 3-1, 3-4, and 4-2 twice, and currently playing 4-4 for the second time, after which I will resume my commentaries and replay T&T and AJ again.

Sure, I always remember who the murderers are and what they did, but the events and everything are (mostly) so fun to go through and read, especially when I can't remember everything I need to do and have to take a bit (but not too much) time to think of something. Plus sometimes I'll actually notice something that I didn't notice the first time.

Plus this series, to me, is just so addictive that for example, I even had to take a break from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 for more AJ-replaying!

These games are definitely replayable, there is just little change in the experience. It's kind of like reading a book again or watching a movie again.

I intended to put emphasis on Phoenix's development. 3-4 -> 3-1 focuses almost entirely upon Mia.

I've read my favorite book about ten times, my favorite movie is always playing while I clean up. I've replayed GS1 and 2 four times - I'm just on my second T&T playthrough, but to be fair, I only got it a few weeks ago and played through AJ two times since then.
In my opinion, the series don't have that "HOLY SHIT" effect when you play through them again, but they never fail to amuse me. Yay for Ace Attorney! :edgy:

There's plenty of replay value, especially where foreshadowing is involved. For example:

Spoiler: Trials and Tribulations spoiler
In the second case, Godot says in response to Phoenix's point about the jewel: 'I'm not much for discussing colour myself'. Of course, you can only know why that is after playing 3-5.

I replay the games all the time, especially 1-2, 2-2, 2-4, and 4-4. I never get tired of the games. In fact, I only really started to love the series after my second play-through of JFA (I started with the second game).

The argument that they aren't replayable mostly comes from the fact you know who the murderer is etc, that said looking at the forum it seems a lot of people spoil it for themselves anyway so it doesn't especially matter. The main draw to replaying the cases I find is looking for speech I had missed first time (or second time) round, for example investigating the Gavinners room when Trucy is away, some of the more confusing cases can be much better 2nd time round as well, for example 1st time round I simply drifted through 1-5 and AJ-3, and by the end had no idea how some of the conclusions had been made, after replaying those I understand them much better and as such they are more enjoyable, the foreshadowing, and backshadowing (if the word exists) are great though.
one of my favourites is
Spoiler: T+T 4
The fact Diego is annoyed by Edgeworth taking the scarf from the crime scene without the police's knowledge, yet in 3-2 he does exactly the same thing with the demaske brooch

I agree that these games are replayable. I tend to avoid some cases (*cough2-3cough*), but I enjoy replaying most of them. (1-2, 1-4, 1-5, 2-1, 2-2, 2-4, 3-1, 3-4, 3-5, 4-1, 4-4).
I only started to like AJ on my third playthrough. (I could be wrong, though. It might have been my fourth playthrough... I have way too much time on my hands.)

I've got most of the cases somewhat memorized. This is good, since I'm starting to get a few other people interested in Ace Attorney, and I may have to lend them my games.

I love that. 3-4 is high on my list of replayable cases. (And no, it's not just because of young Edgey...)

You can pick up on some humour and interesting things the second time through. Try presenting every piece of evidence to every person.

I've played through T&T 3 times and Apollo Justice 2 times now. T&T is my favorite game in the series, heh.

Through my 2nd run of Apollo, I was amazed how much obvious foreshadowing I missed.

To be honest, I don't think the games really have very much replay value. This made me reluctant to buy any of them until I finally started comparing them to movies. You pay about $8 to see a really good movie, and heck; I like Ace Attorney games a lot more than most of the smuck Hollywood puts out now.

I'll replay each case once, to get any foreshadowing and cool character interaction I may have missed. That's about it.

I haven't read any of the replys yet, but they should all state that, like any good book, it can be played again and again. On the first play through a case you look forward the the surprising turns, second play through you look forward to the turns that you remember being good and you want to relive the moment. Or something like that :maya:

Like the majority of you said, the game is definitely replayable. I've played through AA and JFA two times and I will play them again for sure. I don't understand the reviews (or more the people who have made them) where it says that the series has no replay value, because every time you play the games you discover something new, at least one detail to laugh about. Maybe they do not play the game properly and miss the best parts, those little jokes which make the games so special and great. You just HAVE to replay if you want to get them...
Sure, it has not the same replay value like games such as Zelda, where you not only have to play a story, but you can't compare those games to Phoenix Wright. It is a different kind of replay value.
Phoenix Wright is like book/movie/manga/whatsoever and more than that, because you don't only run through a story but also you can discover little details which make the story every time interesting and that is what makes the game more replayable than e. g. a movie "rewatchable" (unless you have the ability to gather hidden details between the lines or anywhere else). I think, the game looses its replay value as recently as you have detected every detail/possible dialogue (and it takes a long time until then..^^).
