Genre Orphans: L.A. Noire
This is an in-depth video review and critique of L.A. Noire, the greatest (and arguably only) successful translation of the police procedural from film and television to video games. It's tries to comprehensively examine the game's mechanics and design values (especially compared to Grand Theft Auto 4) as well as deconstructing the plot. So, all the spoilers. _ADDITIONAL VIEWING_ The Naked City (1948) on Hulu Plus: http://www.hulu.com/watch/376945 Chinatown (1974) on Netflix: http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/374030
