Finished the game this past weekend.....(SPOILERS )

Great game overall, but I was a little disappointed by the fact that Phelps had to die in the end and that the true hero of the game (Kelso) isn't even playable until the final few cases. Also, getting the questions right in interviews/interrogations could be frustrating sometimes, but the gunplay sections were so ridiculously easy that they almost became unnecessary, since it's nearly impossible to get stuck on those parts.

Can someone answer one question for me that I don't quite get: was Roy Earle in any way involved in the Suburban Redevelopment scams, or was he merely warning Phelps to back off for Phelps' own good? He was corrupt for sure, but it seemed like maybe he was unaware of just how deep the Suburban Redevelopment/Elysian Fields stuff went.
