GameShark - Is a mystery still a mystery if no one cares about the solution? This philosophical nugget may be the best thing to come out of James Noir’s Hollywood Crimes even if the game’s biggest flaw lies at the crux of the question. The game is a murder mystery that does its best to involve you by taking your picture and plying you for personal details that it leverages later on, but when all is said and done, the story is executed so poorly that you’ll likely stop caring before the murderer is revealed. There are also puzzles but they’re not all that great either.
Great news for those of you who just got a shiny new 3DSXL and are looking to expand your 3DS library. Several 3DS games have gotten price reductions/clearanced out at Best Buy and for those of you who can get to your local store to search for the titles this evening you can still take advantage of the B2G1 sales on all 3DS games. These games were all marked at a local store, did not appear to be a manager special and required no override at the register when purchasing them. That said, as is often the case for price drops like these, prices may vary depending based on different stores. These prices will likely be IN STORE ONLY.
Pocket Gamer: If you want to point the finger of accusation anywhere, we suggest you point it at Level-5's Professor Layton series on DS.
