L.A. Noire Homicide Desk Preview -- Bloody Shoes and Other Clues

While much of our team is up in San Francisco, braving the brisk chill at the Game Developer's Conference, other eyes are turning towards the gritty streets of Los Angeles, circa 1947. If you're a fan of Raymond Chandler, gumshoe detectives, hard-boiled action, and vintage suits, then L.A. Noire is everything you've been waiting for, wrapped up in one tight package. Jake Gaskill spent some time working the homicide desk and interrogating the game recently, and here's a tibdit that he unearthed:

"While it will be up to players to keep a sharp eye out for potential clues, your partner will also do his best to pitch in too. At one point, we were at a bit of a loss as to where to go next, but a quick look at the standard Rockstar mini-map circle at the bottom left side of the screen showed us that our partner had wandered up to another portion of the alley. When we caught up with Galloway, we noticed a bloody shoe had been tossed in a garbage bin."

What does that bloody shoe point to? Find out more when you read our L.A. Noire Homicide Desk Hands-On Preview.
