This game seems to operate under completely different methods than the other games and so there must be something each of us likes best about this unique and fascinating game. Be it Edgeworth another character or simply the fact they all get cute little sprites of themselves I'd like to hear what you like BEST about it.
Please if spoilers need mentioned make sure you use appropriate tabs.
For me....though it may be rather 'morbid' in a way. I like it best how there are so many unique 'penalty scripts'. With the previous games it has always been a set three per character. However with so many witnesses and members of law enforcement giving testimony there are so many different methods of punishing Miles for when his logic goes awry. I always loved these bits because they are especially comedic so it pleases me to see so many in one game (though hopefully not too many at once).

I'll admit that I was skeptical about Edgeworth getting his own game, it just felt like it would end up being a fanservice game. I have to admit though, that I rather enjoy Edgeworth as a main protagonist. I love his snippy remarks and inner thought processes a lot more than I did Phoenix.
I also love the Logic system, it's nice to get the general ideas around a case and connect them to find out more for the investigation. It makes the whole investigation feel more intuitive since you aren't just relying on people and evidence, but your own thoughts as well.

I like the game's format more. I like investigating and the Logic thing too. The music is one of the best in the series and I like the characters.
Oh, and Tyrell Badd. I love his theme song.
I love Shi-Long Lang too.
I ship Phoenix and Edgeworth and Phoenix and Iris.

That said AAI is like one giant mass of cameos where AJ had very few.

It'd probably be easier to list the things I didn't like because there was so much that I enjoyed.I felt that Kay was an excellent heir to the spunky teen girl assistant crown. She seemed to have more character development devoid of her main quirk of thievery. The game also seemed more believable than the previous games, which I liked as well. And of course, the mini-sprites were glorious! My personal favorite was Gumshoe's "EEK!" sprite. All we need is a flashback case with some clapping Gant mini-sprites and I'll be set for life! And let's not forget the references to past games... those were fun too!

The cameos also made me happy. For some reason, the Sal Manella cameo made me laugh hysterically, and seeing Phoenix, Maya, and Pearl in a boat together made me squee (Maya finally got the boat ride she wanted in 1-4!).
And I must agree with GigaHand on the cravat-as-a-hankerchief thing. I love how Edgey has a spare. XD

1. Logic the only thing I was kinda good at 2+2=4 horay!
2. Gumshoe mass stalking desires....
3. Rou cause he's the cutest badass you'll ever meat
4. Kay cause she's the cutest thief you'll ever meet plus her friendship with Gummy makes me smile.
5. Edgeworth's little sound effects every time he(I) failed.
Currently thinking up an genius siggy ...

I'm just kidding-- I do like it despite my complaints. I liked the ability to walk around the crime scene. I don't think it would work as well for the regular series, but it was fun and refreshing in this game. The music was really good, too. And the ability to play Edgeworth's "first" trial was interesting and definitely my favourite case in the game.
Lots of Gumshoe, too. :)

The possibilities are infinite with those mini-sprites. For example I found Edgeworth sliding down a pole hilarious.
That's true. The mini-sprites look so damn awkward as well, it's amusing.

And and and the relationship between Gumshoe and Kay. It's wonderful, they make the cutest pals.
Also, concerning the (good) music, I absolutely adore Two Embassies ~ The Countries of the Butterfly and the Flower, definitely one of my favourite tunes, not only in that game, but in all of AA.

-as well as a more interesting one, if only because he was outside of the normal AA protagonist mold. Plus he's one of my favorite characters in the series (in the top 5, at least... though I'm not sure where 
), so that helped to Beyond that, I enjoyed a lot about the game: I liked it's unique flow, a lot of the new characters (Kay Faraday, Shi-Long Lang, Callisto Yew, etc), a lot of the returning ones, the killer soundtrack and the overarching plot. That said, the one thing that bothered me plot wise was ...
Spoiler: AAI Case 5 Climax
aside from that, it was a stellar title, and I can't wait till the sequel is fully translated

Glad you agree
If it wasn't for that fly in the ointment, the game would've been near perfect as far as Ace Attorney games go. But ce la vie; such is life 
But then again, as you said, this happens with almost every other villain;no matter HOW well constructed and persuasive your evidence is, if you don't have 'definitive' proof, you lose. It doesn't matter if the case against the defendant doesn't hold up as well anymore and it's circumstancial either way; if you can't build a flawless case, they get away. Not that I mind this TERRIBLY -I mean, we always get them in the end, don't we? 
And I suppose there wouldn't be as much suspense if this rule wasn't in place- but it is a leap of logic that is prevalent throughout the series Anyhoo, this makes it sound like have something against AAI and Ace Attorneu in general, so moving on; yeah, great game, great game
I've heard from people who've played the full of the sequel that apparently it's the better of the two. I don't speak Japanese and thus am waiting for the fan translation to be finished ; how do you think it'll compare 
The first game is so good and really makes the investigation angle WORK; I'm not sure what to expect from the second Your thoughts?

Well, I think the first order of business is to make sure the fan translation is still happening (from what I hear, they're still stalled on only having 2 cases). But apart from that, I'm generally feeling positive about it. I thought it was cool seeing Ace Attorney characters outside of the typical 'investigation-trial' format, and while I'm no expert, I think the game's mechanics worked pretty well.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that the first one has given me a good outlook for the second, as soon as we can get the rest translated.

I actually have an account on the old CR forums, and I check back there periodically to see how they're doing; that's the place they use to confer with each other about the progress of the game, which parts they've completed, etc. From what I can tell they're still making headway, though I don't know what the current 'status' is of each case. I think they said though that they plan to have a release sometime later this year, hopefully by summer time if we're lucky
And back to AAI... yeah, the mechanics WERE pretty good
I liked how it flowed from 'confrontations' (a.k.a cross-examinations) to investigations and back again with relative ease, giving it a very unique structure as far as AA games are concerned

It's okay, I'm not judging
Anyways, it isn't a COMPLETELY secret forum- one of the mods posted a link to it in the main AAI2 thread a while back- but yeah, for all intents and purposes it's been cut off from the 'normal' CR. I think it's probably so their work can get done efficiently without people spamming 'OMG wen iz teh releas?', or 'Status Update? Status Update? STATUS UPDATE?!' and bothering the lot of them, like you said They do post occasionally within that forum to give a progress report, but on the whole they try not to make too many posts regarding that or the projected release date; they've said a few times that they're avoiding doing so to save us disappointment if they're not able to make it. I know all this because I've applied a couple times for a role in development to no avail, but through the process have learned a bit about their inner workings through my trawlings In any case, to make a long story short they're still keeping at it, which definitely is good news for the rest of us
