For a seven-year-old game, they really did have high standards in the audio department due to the number of famous A-list stars they got on board to be in the game both visually and vocally. The sound effects themselves are spot on and the voice acting is amazing.
You have music in the 1940’s ‘Noire’ style that help make you feel like your in a PI movie at times and also the bars and clubs play the music of the time period which fits in perfectly. From my own personal opinion of playing the game, the soundtrack is really good for the style of game. Phelps loves helping out behind the counter of his local bar – whether he was asked to do so or not!Īudio-wise, from what I can see online (as I never played the original), nothing has changed here.
It was groundbreaking and so original back then but does it really hold up today? You would read peoples faces as you interviewed them, determine if someone was lying or withholding information from you and then take this new information and create new leads to work with until you reach your goal. At a time when GTA and Red Dead Redemption were extremely popular, along with other franchises like Mafia and the Godfather, having a game which focused on a realistic approach to things made a big impact with gamers and critics alike. So the game took a more observe and report stance over shoot first and ask questions later. The main draw of this game, back in 2011, was its emphasis on the interrogation and investigation rather than shooting. You will be investigating everything from stolen car parts, serial arsonists, drug lords and even perverted blackmailing all whilst working on an underlying story which moves with you throughout the game. You begin your life as a cop in Traffic but soon you are recognised as a great asset and slowly start progressing towards Vice throughout the course of the game. You take the role of Cole Phelps, a war hero from WWII who has joined the police force after the war. The game takes place in 1947 in the faithfully recreated downtown areas of Los Angeles. Noire inside out but for those of you who, like me, never played it previously I’ll give you a brief overview of the game. The facial motion captures still stand up today.
