![]() Noire, check out our respective reviews here and here. Regardless, this is all similar to last year’s changes to Grand Theft Auto 4, which was delisted on Steam but returned with Games for Windows Live removed and Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City included. Noire was already included with the Complete Edition, so it’s unclear why this explicit change was made. Max Payne 3’s DLC includes multiplayer maps, the classic Max Payne skin, new weapons, new modifiers for Arcade Mode, and even some co-op modes. Still, there’s quite a lot of additional content especially for those who have never tried either game. Along with deprecating support for 32-bit systems, both updates make all of the previously released paid DLC free. DLC fills out the experience for Phelps fans. The slow approach and moments of intrigue are welcome, and ends on an incredibly memorable note. Too often, it means you rely on looking for facial movement rather than actual puzzle solving brainpower in quizzing potential baddies.Following yesterday’s delisting of several titles – which quickly returned without issues – Rockstar Games has released free updates for Max Payne 3 and L.A. Noire isn’t quite an action blockbuster, but more of a serialised crime caper. Another annoying aspect still not totally fixed is the way that interrogations can lead you astray, not providing all the information you need to make a judgement until you pick the lie option and see what Cole will suggest. Unless you choose to play the game properly, and aim for five stars in every case without using intuition and hints, it still very much feels like Team Bondi want to hold your hand through the mean streets. The sometimes unsatisfying conclusions to cases, as well as the repetition that set in on a number of the desks, have largely been avoided, although the game’s main problem still remains, in that it’s basically impossible to fail. Noire while avoiding most of its shortcomings. Overall, these new cases show the strongest aspects of L.A. It really would be a crime if we don’t get that over here as well. ![]() American PS3 gamers also got an additional free traffic case as well, called The Consul’s Car. Of course, the first two cases, The Naked City and A Slip Of The Tongue were pre-order bonuses from different retailers, though even for the cost of three new missions, if you already own one, the pass is well worth it. The Broderick Detective Suit The Sharpshooter. There was also a discount available on the pass (now expired, sadly) which made the decision an easy one, but my advice would still be, if you enjoyed the main game, purchase the Rockstar Pass rather than buy all the DLC separately. Noire DLC Bundle that gives players access to the following downloadable content for L.A. ![]() Knowing that I would be keen to dive into the DLC as soon as it was available, and that there is no way I would be able to resist new cases, I decided to get the Rockstar Pass, which cost about half of what all four of the DLC cases would cost individually. Bearing that in mind, probably the ideal way to experience these new missions is in the body of the main game itself, if possible. With the benefit of hindsight, these shed new light on several aspects of the main plot, for example, the progress of the Black Dahlia case, Phelps’ taste in women, and in later cases, discussion of his domestic arrangements. One particularly strong aspect of the new content are the conversations between Phelps and his various partners. Noire, the chances are there could have been a car chase if I had played out the investigation differently. I also missed the inclusion of much vehicular action, although with L.A. LA.Noire Complete inc DLC 6.79 (-83) DLC 2.80 (-75)' So game with DLC is actually cheaper than game alone. This one features some particularly hard to read interviewees, making the interrogation aspect especially challenging, and there are also a few decent shootouts.Īlthough there are a few puzzle/investigation elements to even things out, it probably isn’t as impressive in that respect as the arson case. ![]() Rather than focus on morphine smuggling, here cannabis is the drug of choice, blended with Mexican immigrants and minestrone soup for another strong tale. There are some quite cool puzzle sections as well to test the budding code crackers out there.įinally (so far), we come to another vice case, Reefer Madness. In terms of story and intrigue, this is quite possibly the best of the DLC, with an arresting early morning blast bringing a temporary (and impressive) post-apocalyptic look to Los Angeles and then going on to incorporate factors as diverse as the Spruce Goose and corporate espionage. Nicholson Electroplating was the third DLC case to be released, and thankfully, provides the arson desk with a much more interesting case that isn’t associated with the pretty dull main plotline of Elysium housing.
