L.A. Noire is a very different game. I also believe a lot of people who don't follow videogames as closely as you or I will be surprised as to what exactly this game is. I'm about three hours in. I must say, L.A. Noire is one hell of a game. Team Bondi nailed the feeling have actually talking to people. Mass Effect came close to achieving this. However, L.A. Noire is on a totally different level. Characters emote with realism. I feel like i learn a lot about individuals by reading between the lines of what they say. The face mapping technology delivers a lot of life to this game. But so far, I haven't called bullshit on anything characters have told me based on any nervous impulses they have.

That's it, I'm officially taking a three day holiday from the internet until La Noire comes out in the UK. Enjoy your game dude :-)

I need to learn when to doubt instead of lie.Telling the difference between someone just being nervous and lying is hard. There was a scene were I interrogated a rap victim.

It is, too bad I kinda suck at it. I need to learn when to doubt instead of lie.Basically, check your collected evidence; if you have something that proves a part of their statement to be false, then go with a lie. Otherwise, go with doubting them.
Yo that game is rad. Also, Cole Phelps is the Black Dhalia Murderer/.
It is, too bad I kinda suck at it. I need to learn when to doubt instead of lie.Lie and doubt are basically the same. If you know they are not telling the truth, check your evidence. If you have something that proves what they said is a lie choose lie, and if not choose doubt.
Shouldn't this be in the L.A Noire forums? Oh well.
Yeah, that whole lie/doubt thing can be a bitch in some cases. At one point someone said that the victim had "new" glasses while the evidence showed they were broken and repaired. So I accused her of lying and picked the glasses but apparently that was wrong. Definitely was not clear if I was supposed to call her out on small fact but it turns out it was unimportant in the long run.

You definitely get the hang of when to call someone out and when to trick them in to giving something up. As a general rule, you can tell if they're lying it's just a matter of whether you've got evidence or not. I'm about 5 hours in, and it's become second nature to me at this point.
I'm not that thrilled with it. I respect Bondi for what they did but this isn't really a game. You can't fail, you can't get stuck, there are barely any consequences for your actions, etc. Basically, it's an interactive storybook with decent visuals and creepy face animation.
