To prepare for the holidays last December, I planned ahead to have plenty of game for a plane ride by picking up Yoshi's Island DS and, a game I'd heard a few good things about, Touch Detective. I liked Phoenix Wright, so it should be at least fairly good, yeah?
Then the news was suddenly sprung upon me that Hotel Dusk: Room 215, which I'd heard about in November from Play's site, was coming to the US but soon. Soon enough, I had picked it up as well. So now not only do I have Touch Detective completely unplayed, but Hotel Dusk as well.
I thought perhaps I would get around to writing a post comparing all three, but at the rate I'm getting through Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice for All, that'll be this time next year. At the moment I'm a little bored with it—the story half implied that the case would be over in the court chapter, but of course it expired back to the exploration game, which is keeping my attention a lot less. This particular case is dragging on, after sharing a lot of evidence about true motivations early in the case.
Luckily Tycho of Penny Arcade fame has been writing about Hotel Dusk instead. Maybe I'll just stick with a real book.
