LA Noire
Looking for a game with a different kind of drama? Then L.A. Noire is for you. With a storyline full of twists, and a cool game experience, what more could you ask for? L.A. Noire confronts you with sad situations and many more.
Inspired by film noir classics and hardboiled crime fiction, this tale of a complicated and troubled cop in postwar Los Angeles makes the business of detective work absorbing and rewarding, and it's drenched in so much authentic late-'40s style that you'll practically be able to smell the mix of glamour and corruption in the air.
You will play as Cole Phelps, a young veteran of World War II who enlists in the L.A.P.D. in 1947. Phelps is played by Aaron Staton, best known for his role on Mad Men, and thanks to L.A. Noire's use of a new technology called motion scanning, his performance goes far beyond voice acting.
The City of Angels is one of the stars of L.A. Noire. The game re-creates a vast swath of the city circa 1947. Your journey takes you from filthy flophouses and hobo camps to elegant mansions and the sleek, modern offices of a company that's shaping the development of postwar Los Angeles.
As a detective, your work investigating crime scenes is often about the smallest details -- The homes of murder victims feel lived in as a result of pictures on the walls, notes pinned on refrigerators, and clothing tossed on the floor and forgotten. This attention to detail makes the often unsavory business of being a detective deeply absorbing.
For everything that this game offers, and everything that you'd encounter while playing it, it's best to leave it unsaid and leave you to your adventure. Happy gaming to all! - Article courtesy of Manila Bulletin.
