Kind of getting a little down on L.A. Noire. Really started off strong and I'm still enjoying the story, but I see what KylieDog means by the game being so easy you can't fail or that way I see it fail meaning make the wrong decision (because you can get shot and killed or let a fleeing suspect get away and you'll see a failed "retry" screen). As far as making the wrong decision I messed up with proving lies during an interogation, and got started back at beginning of that interogation 4-5 times "Get back in there Phelps, I need that confession!" Ugh. One of the things that I would love to see in L.A. Noire that made Heavy Rain such a masterpiece in my eyes was that you could fail certain parts meaning main characters would die, and the game would continue. Knowing that added so much tension and suspense for me and it gave more weight to your actions.

Although I may need to give L.A. Noire more of a chance because I just did one case where I had to choose between 2 killers and I'm not entirely sure I picked the right one. Hopefully this will have some kind of effect on the story going forward and not end there. Although if I choose the wrong guy I wonder if the commissioner would have said, "No, Phelps we want you to accuse the other guy. Go back in there and get that confession". lol. And once again, you can't fail anything story related.
