Meh, I got it for PS3, but the initial novelty of it wore off very quickly. It's a beautiful game will well crafted stories. I just couldn't get into the trial and error involved in interviewing suspects. Especially trying to do it by their facial reactions. I'd always end up making the suspect angry.

Hi,

Got a question here. Between La Noire and SR3, which one will I like better, considering my love for GTAIV and much less liking on Mafia II (rather gloomy)?

From reviews, I'd guess SR3.

Explain. I never played either of these games and they both look honestly enticing to me.

You said you liked GTA IV, and hated Mafia II.

Mafia II: Linear, set in the 1940's, very story-driven
LA Noire: Linear, set in the 1940's, very story-driven

GTA IV: Open world, modern times, much more freedom to explore and do things
SR3: Open world, modern times, much more freedom to explore and do things

Based on your preferences, Saints Row 3 is much further up your alley than LA Noire.

You're welcome.

Thanks for the helpful summaries. I'm putting SR3 on my to-buy list then.


p.s. I don't really hate Mafia II. I just prefer GTAIV by far, for its humor, huge city setup and relatively cheery background.
