  • Cases become predictable
  • Driving / shooting / footchases are awful
  • L.A. is too big and boring outside of cases
  • Phelps' midinterview mood swings are distracting
  • Investigations could be deeper
  • L.A. Noire takes place in 1940's Los Angeles after World War II. You play as a marine turned police officer named Cole Phelps. The story follows Phelps as he rises through the ranks of the L.A. Polic
  • Success is usually the only option.
  • Far too many shootouts/chases which are poorly implemented and tedious

  • Little reason to explore it otherwise
  • Side missions lack variety
  • Early investigations are very limited
  • Disconnection between cases leads to jarring moments

  • Beeindruckende Gesichtsanimationen, Toller Soundtrack, Leichter Einstieg, Spannende Mordfälle, Authentische Charaktere, 40er Jahre Flair perfekt umgesetzt, Lebendiges Los Angeles, Strassenverbrechen, versteckte Fahrzeuge, Outfits, Verhöre
  • Hier und da Ruckler, Monotoner Ablauf bei Mordfällen, Fahrverhalten der Fahrzeuge
  • Rockstar Games, vielen Dank, für die tollen Stunden in L.A. Noire! Wir durften spannende Mordfälle lösen, Kriminelle jagen, durch Los Angeles heizen und die beeindruckende Technik, die hinter dem Spiel steckt, bestaunen. Untermauert wird der Titel durc...

  • Exzellente, bahnbrechende und innovative Gesichtsanimationen durch MotionScanning, sehr gute, neue und nie dagewesene Verhörmethoden…, gute Atmosphäre…, spitzen Sounduntermalung, viele verschiedene Lösungswege, die den Wiederspielwert maximieren könnten, perfekter 40erFlair, sensationelle Darstellung der Kluft zwischen dem aufstrebenden Hollywood und dem kriminellen Hintergrund
  • Protagonist zu glatt, insgesamt zu wenig Hintergründe und persönliche Problemdarstellung, … die dennoch etwas besser hätten ausfallen können, …auch wenn eine deutlichere Charakterzeichnung von Cole noch mehr dazu beigetragen hätte, teilweise zu stark überzeichnete Klischees, viel zu leicht und beinahe frei von Konsequenzen, sich stark wiederholende Lösungsmuster, Nebentätigkeiten um d
  • Meine Faszination über dieses unheimlich gute Mienenspiel, die Ausdrucksweise emotionaler Zustände und Genauigkeit im Detail ist kaum in Worte zu fassen. Ich war erschreckt, entzückt, ein bisschen überrumpelt und unglaublich begeistert über diese ...

  • Weet je nu nog niet welke conclusie je aan dit verhaal moet verbinden, kijk dan nog eens goed naar de feiten. L.A. Noire biedt alleen al met zijn hoofdverhaal minimaal 20 uur speelduur, heeft daarnaast veertig op zijn minst vermakelijke zijmissies, een ...

  • Abstract:  Welkom in Los Angeles anno 1947. De gouden jaren van Hollywood, de stad waar destijds elk sprankeltje glamour met corruptie en mensenlevens betaald werd. Jij bent Cole Phelps. Jij bent nog maar pas terug uit Europa waar je de Tweede Wereldoorlog uitvocht...

  • о правдивости сказанного. Практически после каждой реплики вам будет предложен нехитрый выбор из трех пунктов: поверить собеседнику, усомниться в его словах или же уличить во лжи. В последнем случае, правда, потребуется обоснование — представьте подозрев...

  • Enredo envolvente, Interpretações incríveis, Qualidade das expressões faciais, Mapa gigantesco.
  • Jogabilidade presa, Falta de um modo multiplayer, Excesso de animações.
  • L.A. Noire chegou para mostrar que não é só de GTA que vive a Rockstar, mesmo que muitos elementos entre os dois jogos sejam bem similares. O título desenvolve um enredo envolvente que leva o jogador à não desgrudar do controle até completar uma (longa) i...

  • Abstract:  Korruption, alkohol och mord är vanligt i Cole Phelps värld. Han är en polis i Los Angeles. Följ honom från patrullerande polis till erfaren mordutredare. Poliser gör sig riktigt bra på film och i TV-serier men funkar det i TV-spel? Det har gjorts ett ...

  • Abstract:  L.A. Noire tar spelaren tillbaka till 40-talets Los Angeles, en tid då hatt var standardutstyrsel och bilarna hade sköna runda former utan tanke på aerodynamik. I Los Angeles har soldaten Cole Phelps sadlat om efter kriget och anslutit sig till stadens...

  Published: 2011-05-24, Author: Niklas , review by: megazine.se

  • Abstract:  Det här är en svår recension då det mesta om spelet handlar om berättelsen som man tar del av. Och skulle jag gå in på den så känns det som om jag skulle spoila allt för mycket. Hur som helst så spelar man som en förredetta militär vid namn Cole som h...
