Quote by KnuckPuck:
Here is the sum of what Richard Walker at x360a had to say.
From the score, to the voice work, every facet of LA Noire's soundtrack is pitch-perfect. The only downer is that the limited storage of a DVD – even spread across three discs - means that the audio sounds compressed, but it's not really that much of an issue.
LA Noire's MotionScan tech is as revolutionary as the hype suggests, which is no secret. Everyone's seen the trailers. What's truly astonishing is the scale and authentic period detail of the titular city, from the landmark buildings to the 95 models of real-world cars on offer; everything is spot on.
LA Noire is one of the most gratifying experiences you'll ever have on your console. It's intelligent, well thought out and hugely rewarding. Nothing beats calling a suspect into question and then backing up your objections with hard evidence. Happily, the driving and action sequences also measure up to the crime scenes and interrogations, which make up the majority of the game. It's so much more than just reading expressions and guessing the correct response though.
With side missions, LA Noire easily clocks in at around 20-25 hours. If however, you want to simply race through the story, you're still looking at a solid 15+ hours of utterly compelling entertainment. The unlockable 'Streets of LA' free-roam mode and ability to redo cases also increases longevity enormously, as do the collectibles, if that's your bag. LA Noire will pull you in and refuse to let go.
A nicely balanced list with a good amount of exploration-based, story-based and proficiency-based achievements, LA Noire's achievements are just the icing on a hugely delectable cake. If the game has you hooked – which it undoubtedly will - you'll want to grab the full 1000G, that's for sure.
On paper, LA Noire sounds like an open-world sandbox fused with an interactive movie, but in truth, it's so much more. It's groundbreaking, effortlessly engaging and utterly sublime. To miss playing LA Noire would be a heinous crime. Simply put, it's a work of unbridled genius.
96/100

I have been waiting for this game for a long time, and I was surprised by the score as well, IGN has rated a lot of the hyped games this year with 8.5's.
Gametrailors also gave it a 9.1 out of 10 and the review posted by knuck puck sounds more on par with how I'll recieve the game

Our closest Gamestop hasn't done a midnight release for anything since MW2. It's located inside a mall so they have to pay extra for the mall to stay open. They even have to pay for them to keep the parking lot lights on for however many extra hours.
