Kotaku: "The Professor Layton series follows an English gentleman solving brain teasers and occult mysteries with his apprentice Luke. The Ace Attorney series follows lawyer Phoenix Wright as he breaks down the logical flaws in witnesses' testimonies to protect his clients and uncover the truth in a court of law. At first glance they might not seem all that similar. But upon closer inspection, they both revolve around one simple concept: challenging your very ability to think. And it is this very reason that Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney is one of the best crossover games ever made."
Cultured Vultures: Do you object to any of our rankings for the best and worst Ace Attorney games? We'll see you in court, pal.
One of the hardest game series to rank, every game has a special charm that made it great.
With the release of the sixth main Ace Attorney game in the U.S., how do all of the titles from the series stack up against each other?
From the review, "Professor Layton VS Phoenix Wright manages to work these formats into one experience rather effectively. The game begins with a typical Professor Layton tutorial segment that sets up the main story, and chapter two is likewise a typical Ace Attorney introductory trial scene. Newcomers to either series are granted all of the same needed information as if they were playing one of the separate titles. Once the characters meet, Professor Layton VS Phoenix Wright manages to keep a steady rhythm changing between the different series’ formats and slowly blending the games’ elements in subtle, occasionally slightly forced, ways."
Shut up, localize this, and take my money!
