Using groundbreaking new animation technology that captures every nuance of an actor's facial performance in astonishing detail, L.A. Noire is a violent crime thriller that blends breathtaking action with true detective work to deliver an unprecedented interactive experience.

I picked up LA Noire from my local flea market for about 17 bucks not really knowing what to expect. However what I got was game a game that feels like if Grand Theft Auto met CSI. The basic storyline of the game is that you are LAPD cop Cole Phelps who, in 1940's Los Angeles, starts solving more and more complex murder cases through crime scene investigation and interrogation techniques. As you solve more cases you get promoted to a higher level of management within the department. The graphics within the game are fantastic, however when looking at clues in partial sunlight you can see some pixelation, and maybe some weird render errors here and there, but overall the graphics are wonderful. The gameplay is great too, however it does get a little stale after 8 or 9 cases but it still is fun and provides great entertainment value. The sound in game is wonderful and the voice acting is the greatest I've ever seen in a video game. Plus you have the authentic 1940's music to boot. The lasting appeal of LA Noire I gave a lower score than the rest because I bet once you beat the game once or twice and you start memorizing the answers to the cases it most likely would get stale. Overall, LA Noire is a must have for your gaming library and I strongly recommend you go pick it up at your local game store.

After going back and forth about getting this game for quite a while I finally bit the bullet and picked it up. While this game has fantastic graphics that is all I found to be outstanding about it. The characters, while all well done seem to come right out of the movie L.A. Confidential and so do so many of the stories you will play through. Truth be told I hated the main character and wanted to smack him. Something about him is as annoying as nails on a blackboard. The game is 3 disks but it does not take you long to get through it and unless you are as dumb as a bag of hammers you know what is going to happen and who did it without having to really work the cases that much. The game is ok and I know there are those out there that will love it but I found it to be a letdown after all the hype that been associated with it.

While other games try and bring you into the future, as we see all to common today, it is nice to see some other games other than the Assassin's Creed franchise making hits in the ballpark. With that said, L.A. Noir is an excellent game. The setting, 1940's LA. The protagonist, an up-and-running silver star war Veteran by the name of Cole Phelps. The mission, bring justice to the streets. That is the feel of this game. LA Noir goes out of its way to bring you an authentic experience while still keeping it fun. The story is not very well connected at first, you are just solving random cases. But then you start to get some attention and move up threw the ranks. Noir's characters are all very fleshed out, giving the game an even more indeph feel. The game also doesn't try to hold your hand all time as well. Yes it will give you hints if you ask your partner what to do, but for the most part YOU have to figure things out for yourself. Connecting the dots, following leads, shoot outs, and much much more. Pick up your copy of this game at your local GameStop today!

I was so excited to purchase this game after seeing a Let's Play of it on Youtube. When I saw that it was only eighteen dollars, I was shocked. I purchased it, and let me tell you, I abandoned life for this game. I played it 24/7. I'm quite the scaredy-cat when it comes to gaming, and currently I'm stuck on The Quarter Moon Murders case. The whole catacombs thing scares me. But anyways, This game is perfect. The graphics are exceptional. The game play is amazing. I actually felt like a real detective. Gathering clues, examining the body, chasing running suspects, interrogating the suspects, and locking up the criminals, are just some of the amazing features.

I really enjoy playing this game. The setting is perfect and looks beautiful. The facial animation were amazing and almost looked to good to real. Surprisingly this game is really fun to play with a friend. It feels like the guy using the controller is Phelps, but the other guy is the "other guy". When playing with a friend you get to solve cases together. If one of you are stumped on a hard riddle, you'll find your partner saying, "I GOT IT!" "It was ___!" Numerous time I found myself high fiving my friend shouting as one of us sped down the street to get to the next clue/location. The gameplay never get stale, and interragating someone is really fun.

Since I first heard about this game I knew that I needed it. What I really love in a game is beautiful graphics and a wonderful story line that I can really enjoy. That is what I thought made a game; turns out that it is not. When I first started playing it, I was super excited that I had finally gotten it. After about an hour, though, I got incredibly bored because it was so slow. Even know I am still not finished with it because I just cannot get myself to play it. If you have really good patience then you might like it more than I did. TL;DR version- It is a very long game with a great story line, but it is incredibly slow at many points which is it's downfall.

It really is a great game. The story is epic, I was shocked at what happened. The suits look ba. And the DLC is worth it. Getting a five star case is a little hard. What also makes this game great is the fact that you can make your partner drive, for those lazy people like me. I think rockstar should make another game just like this, but better.

The title of my review says it all. The graphics are amazing. The way the characters talk makes it look so real. The gameplay is awesome, and there is plenty to do. It's a free roam game, so you could just basically do whatever you like. Similar to GTA, but not quite. I definitely would recommend this game to anyone, whether you like detective games or not! :D
