Synopsis

Amid the postwar boom of Hollywood's Golden Age, newly minted detective Cole Phelps is thrown headfirst into a city drowning in violence and corruption. Utilising groundbreaking new technology that captures 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. Interrogate witnesses, search for clues and chase down suspects as you struggle to find the truth in a city where everyone has something to hide.

Against an overarching plot of violence and betrayal, L.A. Noire challenges players to solve a series of self-contained cases as they work their way through the ranks of the LAPD. Each case features a distinct storyline with a beginning, middle and end, and each successfully solved case brings new challenges and leads Cole closer to the true story at the dark heart of the Los Angeles criminal underworld.

Key Game Features

  • Solve a variety of cases across the crime desks of: Patrol, Traffic, Homicide, Vice and Arson
  • Search crime scenes for clues, question witnesses and interrogate suspects as you search for the truth in each case
  • Use your wits to analyse suspect's behavior and separate the truth from the lies
  • Experience a stunningly accurate block-by-block recreation of 8 sq miles of 1947 Los Angeles
  • Rise up through the ranks of the LAPD from a beat cop to other positions as LAPD detective Cole Phelps
  • Solve brutal crimes, plots and conspiracies inspired by famous crimes from 1947 Los Angeles, one of the most corrupt and violent times in the City of Angels' history
  • Multiple difficulty settings give players of all abilities the chance to step into the shoes of a detective in postwar L.A.

4.0 out of 5 starsNew cop on the beat
By A2Y on 17 Sept. 2014
Platform for Display: PlayStation 3
S T O R Y
You play as Cole Phelps a new cop walking the beat who has aspirations of climbing to the top in the L.A. police department. The march from promotion to promotion is a steady journey; though you‘ll meet many colourful and eccentric characters that 1940s L.A. has to offer. You are tasked with catching a serial killer and solving various other cases that all connect together in some shape or form,

Phelps can come across as a slightly one-dimensional character, there are flashback moments that help pad out his origins, but I feel these don’t relate well to present narrative settings. The city itself is another star of the show, it’s a time when people are rebuilding their lives after the war, but this is in contrast to sinister individuals who test the might of the police force.

GRAPHICS & SOUND
Motion Sean is the hot subject on the tip of the gaming world’s tongue. Team Bondi have created
truly revolutionary facial animation technology and the end result is phenomenal, the performances of characters are amazing and very life-like. It’s an amazing achievement when you consider this is running on the .n-game engine. The motion capture is excellent and many characters are animated impeccably well. There are tiny details scattered throughout the game, even when zooming in on objects the textures remain sharp and the resolution is just as crisp. L.A. Noire emphasises style and a strong dedication to try and recreate the 1940s as closely as it can.

Los Angeles is gorgeously detailed, the infrastructure has been designed in accordance with thousands of aerial photos being taken of LA.Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 stars3½ more like
By S. Firth on 7 Dec. 2013
Platform for Display: PlayStation 3
I wanted to play this game for ages, before i even had a PS3 and as soon as i got one i lent this off my brother. Firstly i'd like to say that even though i rate this 3½ stars that doesn't mean i didnt really enjoy it as i did, here's why...

The setting of 1940's LA is fantastic i love this era, i love seeing the 1940's cars on the roads, the people and their attire especially the women characters who all look classy. The streets are so different as to how i imagine them to be now. I played GTA V and i know Los Santos is based on LA and the difference in the two are incredible. I also liked it when people on the street would recognize your character Cole from the newspaper and you would hear them talking about him. I liked that during the Homicide cases they talked about the real life Black Dahlia murder which happened at this time and it was interesting to hear them talk as if you were possibly hunting that killer as the crimes were similar. I liked driving to crime scenes even though driving seemed to take forever sometimes but you could get your partner to drive if you wanted so that's not really a reason to complain.

Reasons i didnt rate it higher are basically these: Questioning people was sometimes difficult, trying to tell whether they were outright lying or not was sometimes a challenge. I didn't enjoy all the cases, the traffic and homicide were good though. Arson and the drug smuggling ones were quite boring. And to be honest i found it hard to keep up with the storyline and Cole's background and who was who from his past. And the ending was... not great and a bit sudden.

But having said all that people with better attention spans probably will do better with the storyline. And i did enjoy the game it just wasn't as perfect as i was hoping but i still recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 starsLA Noire or LA Bore?
By G. Wheeler VINE VOICE on 15 July 2011
Platform for Display: PlayStation 3
LA Noire is the newest game from Rockstar who have an uncanny ability to turn games into gold after working their magic. Red Dead Redemption was a fantastic game and Grand Theft Auto speaks for itself in terms of quality. So after working seven years on LA Noire, the company obviously had a lot to live up to. So does LA Noire deliver? Well it does and it doesn't.

Set in the late 1940s and following war hero/LAPD star Cole Phelps after the war, the game plays out like a typical detective story as Cole works his way up the ranks in the police force. Starting at the very bottom, the feeling of progression is felt throughout with more complicated cases coming to the table as you progress through the four different areas of traffic, homicide, vice and arson.

Right from the off its clear that LA Noire is unlike any other game out there. The facial detail is astonishing and is clear to see even from the opening credits. The setting of LA is brilliantly realized and the detail put into the area and the buildings is excellent. The feeling of being pulled into the time and the crazy goings on is really felt here but never truly explored fully. What I mean by that is the one big downside to LA Noire.

The game is strictly linear and although there is opportunity to go off and explore, do street crimes (more on that later) and collect things the nagging feeling that you're supposed to be doing the cases is always felt. There's never a moment away from a case and the only deviation is when you're supposed to travel between crime scenes etc. and you venture off and explore. This is a real drawback as you can't fully get immersed into the world like other Rockstar games and I think personally the game could have been made less linear.Read more ›
