Okay Gran Turismo 3 narrowly missed the PS2 Mount Rushmore, but Gran Turismo 1 should be an absolute lock for this one. It began Sonys most successful first party franchise, it revolutionised racing games, snd it was the highest selling game on the system. It should definitely be on here.Honestly, you're probably right, but we at B8 just don't care about racing games. --- It's Reyn Time. |

4-0 feeling like a weird dream where everyone is an antagonistic cartoon has always made complete sense to me.I'm going to be honest and say this sounds like an excuse to explain bad writing.

| Topic | Rate the Ace Attorney case: Turnabout Succession (4-4) |
| KamikazePotato 04/06/24 11:48:52 PM #21 | Remember how in AA1 von Karma presented false evidence, and he got away with a single penalty that didn't affect his case in the slightest?
Legendary defense attorney Phoenix Wright does it once and gets disbarred immediately without recourse. The way Dual Destinies handles this plot point is hilarious. They basically have to tiptoe around it because it sounds dumber the longer you think, and because Apollo Justice put Phoenix in a role without considering the world it had built up until that point. Edgeworth shows up and goes 'eeey sorry I couldn't help you out back then', and it's like, why Edgeworth? Why couldn't you or anyone else help Phoenix out back then? Why couldn't Phoenix help Phoenix out back then? --- It's Reyn Time. |

I do think, and maybe this is a hot take, but the huge agreement on the four here kinda shows that the N64 first party lineup was not so hot relative to other Nintendo consoles. Its Nintendos weakest despite having some absolute classics. Just lacks the volume of their other systems.N64 was my first console, the one I should be all nostalgic for, and the one where I rented tons of random games as a kid. I still agree with this. --- It's Reyn Time. |
