New L.A. Noire Screens from the "Nicholson Electroplating" Arson Case

Posted on June 9 2011, 12:00pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Games

In L.A. Noire, when a devastating explosion at the Nicholson Electroplating plant rocks downtown Los Angeles, Arson desk detectives Phelps and Biggs are called to the scene. Was this just a tragic accident, or is something more sinister at play?

Below are some new screens from the upcoming "Nicholson Electroplating" Arson case, available as downloadable content for L.A. Noire on June 21st via PlayStation Network ($3.99) and Xbox LIVE (320 MS Points).  You can see these screens in full high definition at the newly launched L.A. Noire DLC page, and be sure to look for more details on "Nicholson Electroplating" and the "Reefer Madness" Vice case in the weeks ahead.


Phelps surveys the devastation from the Nicholson explosion.


Howard Hughes addresses the press about his revolutionary new aircraft, the “Hercules H-4”.


Phelps grills Fred Nicholson for all he knows at the site of the explosion.


Phelps and Biggs have an unexpected meeting with retired LAPD officer Vernon Mapes.

    I really love the game but you guys should really come out with some other type of game mode were you can do what ever and want and just kill people... The game is really cool but it just gets kind of boring... Besides that i cant wait for the new cases to come out... :)

            I just love LA Noire, I got the pre-order from gamestop, I got the rockstar pass and I replayed the story twice. This is, so far, my game of the year. Just one suggestion, there is a glitch with the badges pursuit challenge where if you get the Crossroads of the world badge or the Hall of records badge, the LA Noire stat tracker on the social club will instead say that you got the Angel's pass badge, even if you didn't. This can be problematic for people who don't remember which badges they've obtained, as they might return to the hall of records or crossroads of the world and wonder where the badge is, even though they already have it. I don't know if this issue has already or is being planned to be fixed, but I thought I'd bring it up just in case.

              I am looking forward to this DLC too.
              There is still a Chance that we maybe get that CONSUL DLC.

              Here is what R* says about it :

                          Dear Rockstar, is it possible for you guys to make the patrol default outfit available in free roam? It would be really great if you guys could make it an update.

                            lol. You guys are already done the game. Im still waiting for a frame per second fix in this game. Is there a patch in the works to make the game run smoother or should I just play it as is R*??
                            • Dylanisawsome123on June 9 2011, 8:34pmReply
                              im so close to getting 100% im at like 96. something. it took me almost a good hour to find the ford business coupe but now all i have to do is get 27 more gold reels:/

                                I am exited for the new DLC and am in the process of getting 100% game completion I am at 90.2% now. I finished all the story cases and the ending was great but I was wondering if there was a alternate ending for the game. Anyone know?

                                      Finally I found the CHEVROLET STYLELINE in the Buyer Beware Case on the street for the Shoe Store Nunn Bush. Now i have found all cars in LA. Noire now the Golden Reels and try to get the 100% in all Cases.
                                      Then i have played LA. Noire out for 100%.

                                      And i wait for the NEW DLC'S "Nicholson Electroplating" and the "Reefer Madness"

                                      I'am so curious how these cases are

                                        This looks really cool Rockstar I can't wait, the game's story was just wonderful, I see Howard Hughes will be making an appearance in the case, that's awesome, and just for kicks will Howard Hughes be played by Leonardo Dicaprio, you know from "The Aviator"? I also can't wait for Reefer Madness, sounds cool Rockstar, keep on rockin.
