226 ace attorney 6 - my commentary on the image gallery (1-9)

Dear Readers,

The extras menu is nice. The movie one is accompanied by an image of the office computer with movie windows on the screen along with some disk drives. Looks very old school! The illustration one then has lots of scrapbooking and written notes, again at the office!

Now for illustrations! This gallery has the music that plays in the accused lobby when you finish a case. It's all victorious and everybody's happy and joyful. Some of the more gruesome images look out of place with this music!

There are 54 images here! It'll take a while to comment on them but I want to take my time here too.

1. Newspaper article of the treasure box from the first case. Not in 3D because there's no real reason for it to be. Was very useful when looking over evidence though.

2. The dead guard and victim from the first case. He had an unfortunate run of luck that forced him to change careers. It was sad to hear Ahlbi talk about him.

3. Photograph of Princess Rayfa performing the Dance of Devotion accompanied by the culprit from the first case, Andistand'hin. Very funny name and awesome way of speaking in song so it was a pity to see him go so bad. I remember pointing out his guitar.

4. Images of the treasure box in the sun and glowing in the dark. Very interesting details in this case and nice sunbeams.

5. A traditional picture of the Holy Mother of Khura'in in prayer pose and without a face. Lovely old traditional fine art style with butterflies, clouds, flowers and auras. They did a nice job portraying this mysterious eastern religious style figure.

6. Ahlbi held up at gunpoint by the guard with his arms up. We don't see his hands because that's a part of the mystery we had to solve to prove Ahlbi's innocence. Not a happy scene. Effective angle though.

7. A tiny slideshow movie thing that revealed Andistand'hin as the guard's true killer, using his guitar thing as the murder weapon. He kinda looks like Kratos here.

8. The first image we see of Dhurke when we're told about the Defiant Dragons! He looks so shadowy, red-eyed and evil here! The people rallying behind him and the red sky make them all look like something hellish! What a huge deception but it really got our imagination going when we were told how bad he was.

9. The familiar image of Phoenix when he was in school on trial, crying and alone. It was where Edgeworth stood up for him. Edgeworth only has a supporting role in this game but it's nice to have him around! I miss Gumshoe by the way...

That's the first 9 images of the gallery out of 54. Not sure how many I'll do in future posts yet.
