L.A. Noire is an amazing game. Here's 3 reasons why.

Stairs
For some strange reason, I always observe how characters move up and down stairs in video games. It's been something that's been bothering me since I've been a wee lad. I hate how most video game people just slide or jump unrealistically up and down stairs. Rarely do games have their characters take each individual step, and when they do, a part of my brain tingles and sends out good signals throughout my body. L.A. Noire takes its stairs seriously, and that is my first reason why this game is awesome. Only other game that I know of that takes stairs seriously is Killer 7. Loved that game too.
Not having to go back down buildings
I don't really have a good, brief title to express how I loved this feature, but the header says it all. When you're done climbing up a huge building, instead of making you go back down, the game transports you to the bottom. Especially when you're searching for all those clues in the last case of Homicide...seems like a minor thing, but it made a lasting impression on me.
Good Samaritan Hospital
I was freaking born here and it's a landmark in the game. How could I not love L.A. Noire?
...Oh and everything else about the game is fantastic as well.
