L.A. Awesome
There was something so different and intriguing about this game, and now it's one of my favorite PS3 titles. It was also the first Rockstar game that I have ever played.
L.A. Noire isn't your typical run-and-gun game, but that doesn't mean it doesn't keep you on the edge of your seat with your eyes peeled on the television screen. It's strategic, makes you think and continues to surprise you from beginning to end. Not to mention the replay value of this game is pretty high...
You take on the role of Cole Phelps, a war veteran working his way up the ladder as a member of the LAPD from patrol cop to homicide detective. The main focus of the game is crime solving but, unlike other games where you focus mostly on violence and fighting, this game focuses on strategy. You scope out crime scenes, discover clues, take notes, interrogate witnesses, and more. The more clues you find the better off you are when interrogating. The motion capture of faces gives the characters a level of detail you don't always see in games... you need to read their faces or listen to their tone of voice to determine whether they are telling the truth or lying. Your instincts are what move this game along. If you're instincts are good, then you can cleanly solve the case. If you accuse the witness of lying when they are in fact telling the truth, a vital piece of information may be dismissed. It all depends on you, as the gamer, to move the story in different directions.
The cases are interesting. They have twists that you don't always see coming... and as you dive further into the game, they start to blend together to turn into one huge case, rather than the game feeling staggered and episodic.
The one downfall of the game, which isn't that huge of a deal considering it's not the main focus of the game, is the action gameplay. The car chases especially were a little hard to control from time to time. Again, not the main focus, but I did find myself the first time I played the game to skip a lot of the driving and have my partner drive to each destination.
Definitely a must-try for PS3 fans. I'm really glad I didn't miss out.

Great Game!
I liked it,it had cop chases,insane criminals ,and puzzles.I liked the music but if you sat at the start screen it was annoying.Gameplay is very fun,some buttons are like GTA 4(Grand Theft Auto 4) and Red Dead Redemption.The lasting appeal is great, if you didn't get all the items in the game.Grafics are great.

Great but it lacks a whole lot of points...
To start off, I had so much hope that this game would blow gamers away but I was wrong. Don't get me wrong though, it's fun at first. The investigations are pretty cool and the whole investigation portion of the games are also great but let's face it. It's so repetitive that it bores you throughout the game. Oh look a body, investigate the arms, hands, face, what's in this pocket? oh look a paper, let's drive to this place, then back to that place. It just gets boring after a while and there are barely any situations where you can shoot your enemies... You can't pull out your gun in public which really blows. The environment is really dull and after you complete the game you have to restart because it doesn't let you continue. Not to mention once you beat the game you have nothing left to do besides find landmarks, cars, and complete side missions. But that will take you 3-5 hours then you're done. This game can be improved, and I hope they improve it, but other than that the concept was nice but it was flawed...

My favorite game
This is just one of those games that are truly perfect from every aspect. The way that rockstar accually used real actors faces in the game is genius, and the story is the best iv'e ever seen from a game. Get it now

Keeps you coming back for more!!
This game is awesome!! From the attention to detail to the case work that makes you feel apart of the game. The Complete Edition is defenitely worth it if you're anything like me and want more and more.

Good Game, But Repeats Itself Too Much!
I liked the game, has a lot of action, and it made me feel like a cop from a long time ago. There is a huge flaw though. ITS VERY REPETITIVE! In the game you will be doing the same thing most of the time. During Girl Death Scenes, doing the 1st case tells you what you're going to be doing for the whole chapter. I'm not gonna tell you the spoiler since it spoils 1/4 of the game. I could basically tell you what you need to do in one mission, and it makes the game predictable throughout your experience. Yes, that's how repetitive this game is. If you don't mind the game repeating itself, you'll like it. To me, it ruined my experience. 7/10 (i do not recommend it to you)

La noire
La noire is super fun. Cole's story is great. This game makes you think alot your case depends on the way you think. The DLCs are great and just expand Cole's story. The street crimes are fun from a bank robbery to finding a killer. This game is great

Los Angeles
I recommend anyone,if you are planning to get this game to get *The Complete Edition*.Why,you might ask? Well because it has all the DLC(Downloadable Content) that the Developers "Team Bondi" made all in one disc.So you just insert the game and it installs everything.This game is quite unique from all other 3rd Person Shooter games.Without spoiling anything you play a Detective in LA in the 1940's where you get cases,find clues,question suspects and solve the cases.It has intense gameplay where you chase suspects(by car or on foot),interrogation,fist fights and gunfights.Story is amazing on how Cole Phelps tries to do good in the already corrupt and lost city.It has real licensed cars and guns.Graphics aren't the best but they aren't the worst,but the facial expressions are the best in Gaming History.All in all if you like the 1940s era with the cars,guns and music with great gameplay & story then this title is for you.

It was good while it lasted.
Yea kept giving me the same cases got kind of boring after awhile its a game you really have to be into to find the fun in it and the free roam well think about it. YOUR A COP. COPS LIVE BY RULES. Simple you cannot cycle through your weapons or walk around in em. In my opinion they should have done the robberies murders etc. random so you can have your weapons at all times instead of mini quests. Good game though don`t regret getting it.
