L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

How many of you guys turned off the vibration whenever you walk over a clue? I found that that makes the investigation part a lot cooler because there's a chance you'll walk over something without realizing it (I still leave the music on though so I don't end up walking around for a half hour after I had actually found everything.

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

Thanks. I was thinking that but couldn't find it.

From The Fallen Idol case, location of path

Spoiler

Facing the car from the top of the cliff, look left, that's where the path is, it's marked with a couple of yellow barriers.

did u have to go into Free Roam to find the Reels?

Another thing I found interesting and I believe it was already mentioned in this thread (Team Bondi/Rockstar hinting at adding whole new crime desks as DLC). Specifically the ones they wanted to get in but left out (Fraud/Burglary).

Well, you'll see Burglary and Fraud (Bunco) listed on the LAPD Telephone Directory sign right next to the phone at the Station.

i really really hope they release both of those desks as DLC.

I love the detective work and all, and I hope more cases with detectives come out. But I pray that Rockstar releases a whole different game dynamic using this game map and the technology. I dont just want to solve crimes as a detective in 1947 Los Angeles. I want to be part of the dirty world as well.

GTA 5!?

Spoiler

The Catacombs are sure as hell creepy!

I'm now on The Set-Up

Spoiler

I stopped playing at the hotel Candy Edwards is staying at. I have real high hopes for this case so I hope they don't let me down. I love th real world touch so far in Vice what with the tenuous connection to Bugsy Siegel with that Cohen guy.

The Set-Up might be my least favorite case so far

Spoiler

There was little detective work with lengthy, boring, following sequences. The story itself was rather straightforward as well. I didn't like the ending either, I get why Cole let the boxer go, but I felt that he should have had the boxer give the partner the $50 he lost.

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

Just finished Vice...

Spoiler

Kind of an odd twist at the end of Vice. Does anyone else think that Phelps really didn't cheat on his wife and it's just Earle being a crooked bastard to get himself ahead in the Department? Is he still upset about the $50 he lost? WTF? That's the impression I got after reading the Newspaper in the alley.

I only say this because there is never any real evidence of what he was doing in her apartment. All they show is Cole entering her apartment on a couple of occasions. Maybe he's getting information?

Something doesn't seem right to me... I guess I'll find out tomorrow when I finish up Arson.

How do you do this?

I've been just doing my thing during a case (usually at the beginning). Didn't know there was an option.

It's in the main menu, under cases you can free roam for each desk after you have completed that desk.

Oh, nice. Didn't know you could do that.

Got the game in the mail today. About to play it. I'm excited.


Do you really care where I sent this from?

I found a few during story cases

Spoiler

including one at the final case in the house

Spoiler

where the origami is

so you can get them during story cases, but they're super out of the way and it's not likely you'll find them in the regular story.

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

Wow, what a game. I'm not the greatest at it but I'm loving every moment so far. Facial graphics have got got be the best I've ever seen and I hope other games start using his technology.

There are a couple of things I would have liked. I wish we had the ability to be a passenger without skipping to the destination, and a first person view. Other than that though, probably game of the year for me, so far.

Felt the exact same way, though it would be somewhat interesting, then it turned into crap really quickly.
