RIP Team Bondi you created a masterpiece.
Theres plenty stories about the development of LA Noire being hellish, and those are fair and valid and important, but on my review i want to highlight the rose not the thorns.
LA Noire feels like somebody made a game for me specifically. I love mysteries, i love detectives and detection, i love pulp and 40s era West coast aesthetics. I love seedy producers and dimly lit jazz bars. Its scraped straight from my brain and served up for me, i love this game.
I hate Cole Phelps. What i find interesting is on launch i remember hating Kelso segments and finding Cole cool and likeable. How wrong i was.
A must play, even if the animations havent held up IMO.
