Gaming Cultural references in Apollo Justice

[Jax]

WARNING!
THIS THREAD INCLUDES SPOILERS!


I figured that this game, like the previous 3, will have tons of cultural refences and internet memes.

The only one I found so far was the witness in the first case called Olga Orly (ORLY?).

Post some as you find them!

 

[Twiffles]

Still waiting for the "IT'S OVER 9000!!!" reference. >_>

 

[Jax]

I was hoping they would include some Portal quotes...

 

[kwerdenker]

in the first trial payne says something a long the lines of "this... this is madness!" which could be a reference to the well know quote from 300

 

[- Wrath of God -]

I was hoping they would include some Portal quotes...

OBJECTION!

I doubt there's any portal quotes, since it's just a translation of Gyakuten Saiban 4, which was released on March 12th, 2007 as opposed to Portal, which was released on October 9th, 2007.

Just getting in the mood

Can't wait to play this game!

I noticed one but I can't remember clearly, and I don't feel like redoing the whole first case just for the quote

.

 

[buddha-kun]

they called the poker area, the "Hydeout"

lol, jrock shits

and if you're to young to know, Mr. Kitaki is based on marlon brando (the godfather),

 

[MaHe]

I doubt many of these are actual references ...
But yeah, I immediatelly thought of Brando after seeing Kitaki.

When Valant enters the courtroom in case 3, Apollo notices that he used the door like a regular muggle.

In the Jap. version, theres "ITZ OVA 9000!!!". Its at the end. I got threw by a reference guide for jap version.

No there isn't... At least, I never saw one.

In case 3, Apollo says something like nobody would ever name a band "the police" and later he says to Trucy you don't have to turn on the red light or something.

Maybe it's just me being wacky.

A reference to Ancient Roman culture

:
Kristoph Gavin: Et tu, Justice? (Or Apollo, don't remember)
(Julius Caesar: Et tu, Brute?)

When you ask Wright to testify about Gavin's dinner with him in the first case

well actually it's a coincidence that is looks like french. thats no wonder since french is a romanic language.
wikipedia

"Et tu, Brute?" ("You too, Brutus"[1], or "And you, Brutus?") is a Latin phrase often used poetically to represent the last words of Julius Caesar. The quotation is widely used in Western culture as an epitome of betrayal.

in case 3, a couple of the characters are from a fictional country called "Borginia" which is also a country in Dino Crisis, an older capcom game.

also i heard that the "Borginianese" language in the game, which is made of wingdings, contains a symbol of a man doing the hadouken

 

[blizzak]

*edit* whoops double post

 

[kwerdenker]

at the end of the third case the judge says: "with great accusations comes great responsibility".

thats an adaption of "with great power comes great responsibility" which comes from "spiderman".

I don't think you are.

Honestly, the joke doesn't work, because, later, Apollo asks, "The Police?" Trucy (I think) replies with something along the lines of "no, the actual police!"

Yeah I know of the song, I just thought maybe I was taking it out of context.
