GoGamingGiant - L.A Noire Review

Let me begin by saying L.A Noire is a very different experience from what everyone’s used to when it comes to games that are similar to the Grand Theft Auto series. This game doesn’t only enter unvisited territory but also does a good job at it. From shoot outs, to playing private eye or chasing people on foot and on wheels. L.A Noire has a lot going for it but is it enough for the people who aren’t used to this flavour of tea? One thing we can be sure is naked women, size 8 shoes and a hell of a lot morphine will be found in this adventure.

Definitely looking forward to this. I'm not keen on the GTA style of gameplay, but I'm sure I'll get over it. This is next on my list as soon as I finish my current game.

jrbeerman114738d ago

most of the gameplay is nothing like GTA.

In fact someone expecting a game similar to GTA may be dissapointed.

Murgatroyd74737d ago

That's certainly good to hear. I'm hoping it will be more like the Mafia games. Those give the impression of being like GTA, but they're much more enjoyable.

Yes apparently to some the repetitive nature of the game is what's wrong with it; which i find stupid because games by nature are repetitive.

In fps all you do is shoot, in racers all you do is race, and in platformers all you do is platform. I don't see why this is being held against this game and not other games out there.

As for me I love this game beat it last night and I give it a resounding 10. This and heavy rain are the best gaming experiences I've had this gen along with valkyria chronicles. The last guardian will be joining this list since I love the previous two games Team Ico released.

Notice how my favorite experiences this gen had less to do with today's gen favor of the month(FPS) and more to do with unique experiences. I wish more developers would take risks with their IPs.

I'm slightly less then halfway through the game and no way this game is anything less then an 8 or 9. The emotion detection alone is a huge step for gaming, and the detective work is damn cool to be apart of. Sure, you'll have to pursue on foot a lot or chase someone, but what the hell else can you do in a cop game? paperwork?

I don't get way this game was hyped up so much, other than it was a rockstar game. Have no interest in it.

L.A. Noire And Bully — Rockstar's Lost Gems That Deserve A Sequel As Much As GTA

Hanzala from eXputer: "I do appreciate GTA 6, Rockstar, but if I could trade it for a new L.A. Noire or a Bully game, I'd do so in a heartbeat."

Skuletor39d ago

How are they lost? You can get L.A. Noire on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch and Bully is on the PS5 and Xbox Series too.

Psychonaut8539d ago

I want a new Manhunt game. But that will never happen.

Demetrius38d ago

Mfs are too sensitive nowadays and would cry instead of being concerned bout real world problems

Demetrius38d ago

Whenever gta 6 launch we won't be getting another rockstar title for another 10 years lol but on the positive side they bou to come back n show how open world supposed to be done 🔥

Skuletor38d ago

I won't expect any singleplayer DLC like IV's The Lost & Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony after it launches either

12 Years Later, L.A. Noire is Still an Excellent Experience

There was a lot to love about Rockstar and Team Bondi's 2011 open world title.

One I never finished. I've been looking at the ps4 version off Amazon the last few months just never bit

Knightofelemia143d ago

It's worth playing LA Noire is one of my favorite Rockstar games. But I would also check out pawnshops or thrift stores if you want the game dirt cheap. Someone may have been dumb enough to dump the game.

andy85144d ago

Baffles me when people have these opinions about acclaimed games 😂

RhinoGamer88144d ago

100% agree... not perfect, but an engaging/refreshing experience.

sagapo144d ago

Agree, at time of release those facial expressions were amazing! They still hold strong even today imo.
The game on its own was good. Something fresh, but sidequests were a bit meh after a while.

Nacho_Z144d ago

I picked it up on sale recently, going to play it next summer. I'll get more out of it this time, first time around I treated the open world like it was GTA and goofed about, whereas now I'll play it with more respect. RDR2 has trained me well.

I also hadn't read Raymond Chandler at the time so presumably that'll add another layer of enjoyment too.

1nsomniac144d ago (Edited 144d ago )

Absolutely stunning game. So underrated. Played through it again last year and it still stands up so well. Like many of rockstars games it’s actually a far better experience on PC. I didn’t enjoy it as much on console. Completed it at least 3 times on pc.

The rumours of a sequel are awesome news despite the fact I think Rockstar are now the shell of the company they once were.

SyntheticForm144d ago

Team Bondi made a hell of a game.
