I agree. Those two games were ZzZzZzZzZzZzZz.

La Noire was just a big tech demo for their new facial animations.

L.A Noire was a big disappointment to me. Quite repetitive, boasted one hell of a huuge nicely rendered map that was practically full of nothing to do.

Restrictive gameplay scenarios in how you approach / solve cases. The facial animations is what was amazing, but the rest was a letdown especially with the amount of little things you can do in the game.

Depends on personal preference/choice. I loved Heavy Rain. It was something new and fresh, and I'm glad I played it.

The Wiire writes: "Could A Wii game that you play without touching the Wiimote possibly be fun?

Nintendo claims they are "innovators." With the Wii, the DS and the Dsi, many believe that Nintendo has lived up to their claims.

With a few exceptions in games like Boom Blox, not many games find interesting mechanics besides the basic waggle."
