Fifth time playing it...


The first time I played L.A. Noire my feelings about the game were very mixed. The second time around didn't change my opinion at all. But now almost a year since it's release I can appreciate the effort much more. Having played the game five times now and shedding all preconceived ideas of what I was expecting the positives outweigh the negatives.

Pros:
Graphics
Storyline
Action
Location
Environment
Acting
Detail
Pre-order bonus

Cons:
Replay Value
Lackluster Free Roam
Functionality
HUD display

Best Cases:
The Black Caesar
The Gas Man

Best Street Crime:
Cosmic Rays

Best DLC:
Reefer Madness

You've played it five times yet replay value is a con?

I say the replay value is a con because most people played it once, maybe twice, and then traded it in. At least that's what I've heard from gaming sites and the L.A. Noire Forum. Many aspects of the game have been discussed online and one very big factor was that the game was fairly memorable but being there isn't much to do after beating the storyline and the lack of multiplayer makes it less likely someone would replay it as much as I have.
