L.A. Noire Walkthrough

Go see what’s going on.

Pick up the newspaper Then look at the second to the last locker on the wall Look at the note

*NOTE: Okay, so Mickey Cohen has a striking resemblence to Patrick Fischler, who played the paranoid dude in Mulholland Drive, which is a movie about the scary side of the film-making industry. The movie centers around a series of unrelated criminal events that unfold in Hollywood, so it’s a bit ironic that dude is in this game, and more ironic he is mostly part of the secondary segments which are seemingly unrelated to the main story – until now that is. Sorry, just had to know for sure. Used my DETECTIVE skills to link his name to this game… using IMDB.com of course…*

Leave and head for a phone. Ride to the hotel.

Approach the front desk and look at the ledger. Point to Sir Winston Churchill on page 2, room 207. Up the stairs and the first door you see:

On the table is a magazine Look at the coupon and point to the filled-out portion to get a clue Look at the warm beans at the back of the table There is a movie stub and chocolate on a dresser Note in the tipped-over trash can Lipstick on cigarettes to the right of the bed Note on the left of the bed

Head for Candy’s place.

Talk to the receptionist, and when walking out go left, up the stairs, and take the door to the left to start a fight. Try not to get hit.

Look at the pockets of the dude (hmm, I wonder what was used to knock this man unconscious????) Look at the suitcase on the bed There is a ticket and postcard on the dresser

Then you will talk to her:

Hammond – lie, magazine coupon Odds – lie, bookmaker’s payout Plans – doubt

Now you will have to tail her without a car. Just stay on the bench until she is a good 20 yards or so away. Press the back button to stand up, then move up and stay behind the truck until she stops and resumes walking. Then move up, with some haste, and take cover at the fence. I just let her get way away before moving along the sidewalk, not using the shoe shine guy. For me, a truck stop in the path, so I used that for cover but she didn’t turn around; she was a good distance away. Then when she passed by the wall I run up along the grass to the right, using the wall to block line of sight. This should be a save point.

*NOTE: You should see a correlation to the distance you give her means she will not turn around. She must have a creep radar on or something.*

Up the side walk and to the corner, I just gave her 30-40 yards of distance and she didn’t turn around, but there are some cover points in the mini-park area in case she does. You can let her clear the wall and then run through the park to the corner. Let her get some more distance and move up to the cover of the parked car (hopefully she doesn’t get run over like she did once… wtf?!). She should turn after crossing the road, then run up and take cover as she moves up and until she turns left. Then run to the green house.

Use the long fence and follow, she may stop, then run up to the corner of the building. She’ll go behind a little shack, so use that time to run up behind the shack. Run up when she clears the alley wall, let her walk all the way down, and then run to the corner for a scene.

Go into the dark red doors. Shade the notepad, then head to the next place.

Talk to the bookie inside, then go around the corner and look at the card near the phone. Use the phone, then talk to the bookie again.

Get in the car and drive yourself to Ray’s. Tail her by car this time, just watching the radar and the road so as to obey the rules of the road as best you can.

When it’s over, go in and take a seat and wait for her to head for the door to the right. Get up and go in for a scene.

Look at the gun, then the ticket in the purse. Set a destination to the theater.

Head in and go up the right side doors. Take cover and begin blasting the guys down below. Move up to their hiding spots at the front, or just go through the doors to the backstage. Head in and up the stairs on the left, then make your way across the balcony. Move to the side balcony and gun down the last dude who should pop up on the floor.
