Appears that it's basically a combination of Mafia 2 and Heavy Rain. Because of that, I dont feel like its a 'must-play'.
Im curious though as to how much player-choice there is, because Mafia 2 was very linear and this looks to be the same way.

It's extremely linear in the sense that you will always follow the same case pattern and order every playthough (though there are optional street crimes to solve given to you through radio dispatch) and the base setting makes sure you always solve the crime. You can change those settings though.Originally Posted by heshfield

La noire is very lineare but unlike mafia 2 noire's structure
complements it's straight narrative. Mafia 2 felt like more like gta with someone holding your hand like it has all the elements but your not suppose to do that and it taunts you. La noire feels more like an adventure game like uncharted where the story helps the gameplay. Like there's a basic path you must take but it enhances the experience and emurses you. It's a really good game especially when you start figure out how to read people

thanks a lot for this review. I've been debating whether or not to get it, but I've had friends telling me that "it's the best game ever" and what not, but just this doesn't convince people to buy a game (atleast not for me). But from this review, I feel like making the purchase. I've really really liked GTA, but the whole interviewing people and trying to find out if they lie or not and shit like that intrigues me for some reason... and also because it's similar to GTA lol
I've been trying to avoid this thread all day for fear of bad reviews and spoilers but i couldn't resist any longer!!
I bought the game at 9am today, worked all day with the game in my car... and on my mind! And I still can't play it till 11pm tonight when the wife gets home from work >.>
I'm not expecting the game to be at all like GTA, I am hoping for a story driven, detective "whodunnit" type game. If it had no free roam at all I don't think I'd be bothered. Can't wait to see the character graphics in action.... just hoping it doesnt freeze every 2 minutes like I've been reading
It's kind of a crapshoot on the overheating. Mostly older "Fat" model PS3s.. but a few 360's have been reported as well. I haven't heard what type of 360's yet though. I will say, I have an original 60gb PS3 and have had no problems thus far.

Played it for a few hours last night and I am really impressed. It is an open world game but its heavily story driven. I'm not sure how much there is to do outside of the main storyline though. I know there are some side quests that you pick up (seemingly randomly) by way of radio communication in your car. Either way, the gameplay is great fun. The searching for clues, interviewing people, interogating suspects all work amazingly mainly due to the incredible facial expressions, and voice acting.
The game being so linear though I don't expect I will be going in for seconds any time soon after beating the game however I dont think I will trade it in either as the DLC will add some extra funs and I can see myself picking it up again in 6 months or so, when I have forgotten everything for a replay.
highly reccomended by me
ending loldisappointed me

fucking dumb
