Gaming Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies is rated M, new footage

[aeros]

Came here to write something similar xd

EDIT: anyway the gameplay looks amazing. Can't wait!

nope....no jiggling
just blood everywhere

Looking good, liking the new depth added to exploration. Can't really say I care about the M rating personally, but I don't think it's going to have a big impact. If parents will buy their kids CoD then why not this game?


And I'm sure Phoenix doesn't actually die. If that happened there would be a lot of angry fans.

Actually i think the exploration was more linear and more shallow than previous installments
the story is great, but the game got too easy with too many hints and aid...

Well, don't use them.

Wait, what? You mean rated M for Mature?

Are they out of their minds? They're going to sink a good portion of the sales - overprotective mommies won't buy this game for their Nintenyearold kids!

(On a serious note though, I love Ace Attorney and played each and every one that was translated so far - this rating is pretty surprising to say the least.)

Just as outrageous as Earthbound being rated T, amirite?

It's in the normal dialogue....

Is this another simulation of what the mafia is like in Las Vegas? I think the idea that mature people (which in the ESRB's opinion equates to over 17) will play this game, but does that mean that it can ONLY be played by people over 17? This is a game series that anyone can enjoy, and by anyone, I mean people over 6: there aren't many child prodigies like Mozart anymore...

I also need to add that I'm like those protective mommies; I believe that kids under 17 shouldn't play M rated games. In this case, it means that they can't enjoy this last game in an otherwise fun series to play. Do the developers really have to sacrifice these young people just for a rating?

Not exactly... but thanks for the humour

Wow, thats bizarre, but honestly, I'm all about, I love the Ace Attorney series, I'm interested to see what could make it an M rated game. Maybe there's a rape or brutal murder trial?

hmmm a brutal murder and a cutscene... (we get a horror ace attorney)

It's not like they choose the rating. It's just that bloody murder scenes look more realistic now -> rating goes up.
