    Excellent game, with a few minor flaws

    To sum it up, L.A Noire was well worth my money. It can be best summed up as an "open world detective simulator", but it is much more. i went into this game with high expectations, i have never played a bad Rockstar game and didnt expect to now.

    Needless to say, i was very happy with the experience  this game gave me, and while (In my opinion) not quite as good as Red Dead Redemption, it is still an amazing game.

    Pros- Great story
                -Great  Atmosphere
                -Cases are all rather fun
                   -Captures the feel of a Noire Film Perfectly.
                 - Amazingly Recreated image of L.A
                    -Keeps you wanting more

    Cons- not much else to do after its finished. (in my opinion, being able to go out to clubs and out drinking would have added a nice touch, even if it only opened up dialouge)
                - Vice Desk (in my opinion the best part) is not nearly long enough
                - Would have liked to see more of Coles Personal life, and learn more about his family.

    In my opinion the game delivers what its expected to and more, if you have come in looking for "Grand theft Mafia" then your out of luck, but if you know what your getting in too then you will almost undoubtedly enjoy your experience.

      There's nothing quite like it. 0

      L.A Noire is a hard game to classify, from some minor observation it could’ve easily been misinterpreted as GTA in the 1940’s with impressive facial tech, but if you look at anything past the obvious it’s a game with depth, an incredible story, unique gameplay and a giant sprawling open world. L.A Noire has not only set a new standard for its technology but it’s completely rewritten the book on the adventure game and open world game alike, it’s not without its flaws but it’s an incredible well ...

      Just like LA, not much substance but plenty of flash 0

      If there's any game that's come out in the first half of the year that had a big question mark on it, it was LA Noire. Aside from Duke Nukem Forever which is more about the quality of the game given its long development cycle, it was hard to pinpoint just how LA Noire would actually play. Truth be told, I'm a little tired of the sandbox style of games Rockstar has been doing so when it comes down to it, LA Noire is kind of a hybrid between sandbox and old-school adventure titles so at least it's...
