Guide to LA Noire on the PlayStation 3
LA Noire for the PS3 starts off just like a typical forensic or crime investigation show. The scene is barricaded by police with a yellow sign that reads “Police Line Do Not Cross”, men in uniform busy gathering evidence or gathering interviews, and a crowd of curious onlookers from afar trying to squeeze as much information as they can about the events at the scene. You will find a lot of this scenario throughout your time playing LA Noire. That first scene alone is enough to transport you into the world of this game and be immersed into the experience of crime solving itself.
Team Bondi and Rockstar team up in bringing LA Noire into the PlayStation 3 for what is promising to be the best detective game for this year. It is hoping to do what Red Dead Redemption was able to do for Western films when it released last year. By the looks of it, especially for those who had a few glimpses of the game’s trailer, then that might not be a difficult thing to achieve.
Rockstar is famous for delivering open world action into the PlayStation console, but this is of a totally different vein. The core gameplay might have some similarities to them but this one is comparable to Heavy Rain wherein you can expect some level of gunfight or vehicle chases at one point or another. Team Bondi decides to take a thoughtful approach in showcasing the investigative scenes in this game. Thus, it was quite a challenge how a balance could be obtained once the real action begins to happen.
To resolve this matter, Team Bondi has decided to make engaging in combat as an optional affair. Driving around 1947 LA as the setting for this game will offer many spectacular views but you can expect a notice from a colleague in a nearby area asking for assistance and reinforcement in handling crimes. You can choose to accept the call dispatched by your colleague and when you do, you will be taken to a burst of violence as you have to deal with various types of criminals.
In order for the above to happen, the plot and character must provide the foundation for LA Noire. The story begins with Cole, the main protagonist, trying to look up the files of assignments given him until he scours the four major crime desks. This is the point wherein you will also learn about the basics of the game. Your main responsibility is to dissect a crime and learn how to spot subtle cues. In the case of this game, hearing a sleuthy music playing in the background would mean that there are clues that you can find in the area that is potentially useful in the case. You can therefore inspect any of the items around you to see if you can find the evidence you need. All you have to do is press the button to closely inspect an object. Make sure to look around your surroundings to find any item that could prove useful in the investigation.
Gunplay is another area of LA Noire wherein Rockstar has done a real excellent job at. It is handled in a very competitive manner and is combined with a simple but solid cover system. However, you do not really have to significantly worry about cover system because shoot-outs do not typically last that long. The entire duration of the story lasts for only 24 hours so you can expect lots of spontaneity in the gameplay.
RockStar employs the unique MotionScan technology in order to facilitate in this kind of gameplay that is offered by LA Noire. Whether you appreciate any new technology or not, this one cannot be denied, especially since the effect is evident in the game itself. This is a feat for RockStar and LA Noire because this is already in the league of big games such as Heavy Rain and Uncharted. The quality of acting featured in this game also provides more compelling reasons to use this technology. An ambitious project, no less.
The replay value of LA Noire on the PS3 is another bright prospect for hard core gamers. Because of the content’s malleable nature, there are several possibilities as to how the story could go and end. You can therefore play it as many times as you want and expect different storylines each time you play it. And even then, you will still find yourself gripped in the exciting world of LA Noire, which is also why this is one of the must-have games for this year.
