Review L.A Noire

I recently purchased L.A Noire through Amazon and received it release day.

Generally to review games people rate them on graphics, sound etc but I will give you the executive summary with the cool and fun aspects of the game, NO spoilers.

L.A Noire is a different genre of game, I would almost classify it as a entertainment/film and action game. My roomate and myself find it fun to play it in a team and figure out clues, decisions and the interview format of the game. A lot of the game seems like Rockstar’s previous with cut scene action and driving and shooting but it is much more linear in motion then Read Dead Redemption of GTA IV. One thing is clear, they made the game different for a reason. The cases themselves still have a very open element of choice though. Overall I would recommend renting L.A Noire first in order to see if this style of gameplay is for you, then purchase it.

Cool stuff:
-Solid achievement list
-Great crime scenes and challenging interviews
-Different crime types
-Perfect scenery and historical perspective

Rockstar Games next big hit? -L.A Noire

With many of 2010’s big game titles released it is time to look forward to 2011 and what the studios will bring us.

A promising title is Rockstar Games “L.A. Noire” a game about detectives in Los. Angeles with what will most likely be a free roam like environment such at GTA IV or Red Dead Redemption. The game’s graphics look great and the technology behind the game involves actors and using motion scanning to create smirks and emotions that will add to the games feel.

No mention of multiplayer has been made, overall it seems that the game will be a solid long storyline that will really engross the player in a  James Bond like thriller that is in a 48 hours episode based in the 1940’s. Rockstar has set a release date range in the spring of 2011.
