Would I have to finish the first three Layton games to understand this one? I heard The Last Specter is a prequel.
None of the games rely on other ones in the series. Knowledge from the other games is a bonus, not a requirement.
They should have taken out the self executable part of the name to make it less obvious ^^ Too bad though, I'm gonna go to bed and have to play Phoenix Wright 3 for the 4th time instead of this.
I've been replaying the Ace attorney games myself, on Apollo justice now, would be playing AAI2 if capcom translated it!
I pretty much replay it from the beginning everytime I finish the last one. I maybe leave a few months between the last and the first. I would do the same with Layton but the more random tile based and remove all balls on the field games piss me off enough to never touch the games a second time.
Honestly, I love the Ace Attorney series, but they don't have enough replay value to play all the games again more than once every year or two.
(Also, I always skip Apollo Justice because it makes me sad. I imagine Phoenix going on cases til he dies or becomes a judge.)
Ontopic: Has any temper been into a store to see if Specter's Flute is in stock? Had I any money, I'd buy and dump it myself.
(Of course, there will come a few good games in the future, but Layton is something extra-ordinary^^) And my English IS bad. I can write simple sentences, but playing a whole videogame in another language? That's too difficult^^
