Abstract: L.A. Noire takes place in Los Angeles post-World War II. Players assume the role of Cole Phelps, a decorated war hero who continues serving his country by signing up with the L.A.P.D. You start off as a street cop but quickly climb the ranks of the de...
Abstract: The characters are deeply engaging. Cole Phelps, played by Aaron Staton (Ken Cosgrove, for those who watch the television show Mad Men), is a great protagonist. His story is delivere..
Abstract: L.A. Noire är Rockstars frälsning, det spel där de äntligen hittar tillbaka till sin forna storhet. Jaså, du tycker inte att de någonsin förlorat den? Min ståndpunkt kräver nog en noggrannare förklaring, så varsågod: Du kommer antagligen att hata mig f...
Abstract: I'll start my review of L.A. Noire by stating that Cole Phelps, the main character you'll play as, is about the blandest video game character I've run across in quite some time. It's not that his dialogue is particularly bad; in fact, most the writing ...
Abstract: "The uncanny valley" er betegnelsen for skellet mellem det kunstige og det naturlige. Især anvendt i skabelsen af menneskelignende robotter – hvor livagtige kan de laves, før vi mennesker tager afstand fra dem, fordi de ligner os og alligevel ikke helt...
Gesichtsanimationen, ErmittlerAtmosphäre, 40'er Jahre Flair,

von Christopher Link Und man hat sein Versprechen wirklich wahr gemacht: L.A. Noire ist tatsächlich etwas komplett anderes als ein GTA-Spinoff in den späten 1940er-Jahren. Hier zählen Lug, Betrug, das Spiel mit der Wahrheit, nicht die Knarre, die ihr...
Motion capture and facial expressions are excellent, story telling, atmosphere, packed full of recognisable characters, plenty to get your teeth in to
Hiding under the surface is a game that's actually fairly linear, driving sections could have been better
In the end, it is the atmosphere and the storytelling, more than the somewhat flawed gameplay, that make L.A. Noire so unmissable. Like Heavy Rain before it, it’s a game that shoots for the moon and falls slightly short, but where the fact that it aims...
Abstract: In the venal world of film noir and its hard-boiled literary counterpart, few stories end happily. It's not uncommon to see tales of hapless everymen and working schlubs that are pushed or duped into tawdry affairs, criminal scheming, and murder. Chara...
Abstract: As a boy, I actually liked watching black and white movies, particularly with Humphrey Bogart. There was something about him in The Maltese Falcon and Casablanca that exuded devil-may-care cool in the face of overwhelming odds. As I grew u...
