All joking aside, from these shots and short descriptions L.A. Noire is starting to sound a bit like Heavy Rain just placed back in the 40's. I'm just hoping that the shot of Phelps with a gun means that there will be more action than there was in Heavy Rain. By action I am talking more than just QTE for all the combat and shoot 'em up scenes. I can only hope that Rockstar is trying to meld the awesome crime drama side of things yet keep up with the fun of their other titles.
