Humans faces have never looked so realistic, and the production values are excellent.A dark and violent crime thriller set against the backdrop of 1940’s Los Angeles.Īmid the post-war boom of Hollywood's Golden Age, Cole Phelps, an LAPD detective is thrown headfirst into a city drowning in its own success. Noire is a deeply satisfying game with some interesting an innovative ideas. These criticisms shouldn't dissuade players. Noire sometimes feels like exploring a huge replica of a city, not like actually being a cop in a city. The city of Los Angeles is impressive, but doesn't have the 'living city' feel that GTA IV's Liberty City achieved. The game will help you, with a phone call for example, to make sure Cole Phelps has what he needs to get the case moving.

Noire is very linear, and although you can do better or worse in interrogations and crime scene investigations, you cannot fail. Noire the feeling of an excellent interactive TV cop drama.

The stories are well written and acted, really giving L.A. Looking for clues is a little more mundane, but there are subtle in-game pointers to make sure you don't get stuck. To succeed you need to read the faces of your potential criminals, which is a new experience for gamers. Interrogations take advantage of the impressively realistic facial animations in the game.

As well as exploration, driving and shooting, Cole Phelps spends a great deal of time looking for clues at crime scenes, and interrogating suspects.
