Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney 3 Trials and Tribulations preview for Nintendo DS
Capcom's third handheld lawyer-'em-up concludes the journey of Mr Phoenix Wright, with new ‘ace attorney' Apollo Justice replacing the spiky-haired one in a DS-exclusive adventure next year. Trials and Tribulations is the last of the Japanese GBA games to b e translated, marking the end of the trilogy.

What do we know?
We've been playing the Japanese version (with built-in English translation, in case you were wondering) and we've just reached the final case. For Phoenix fans, this is the best in the series to date, with each ‘turnabout' beating its equivalents both in the original and sequel (Justice for All) in every way. It's pacier, t wistier, turnier, and has more laugh-outloud moments and brilliant pop culture references crammed in than ever before, along with a couple of genuinely touching moments. Don't expect any changes in the gameplay mechanics – indeed, the Psyche-Locks from JFA make a return – just enjoy yelling "Objection!" into the DS mic, and prepare to shed a tear for some wonderful characters we may never see again (sniff).
