L.A. Noire: Nicholson Electroplating Disaster

Over the course of the DLC, you'll shoot a couple of looters, decipher some puzzles, closely look over photographic evidence, and engage in a few chase scenes: add in a healthy amount of investigatory work and a large shootout, and you have a pretty diverse gameplay array.

Weaving a complicated tale of murder, industrial espionage, and corporate corruption, its story doesn't always make sense, but it sure is exciting.

Another fun, if baffling, slice of Noire. [Sept 2011, p.87]

L.A. Noire: Nicholson Electroplating Arson Case fails because it takes apart most of L.A. Noire's idiosyncrasy. Solid action scenes but little story or investigation.

Considering its clear tendency to action, this DLC fails to build upon the game's strengths, highlighting instead its major faults. Real fans might not mind, but if you're not among them, you should consider keeping your money for something else.

Quotation forthcoming.

Nicholson Electroplating doesn't have time for that slow-burn organic process. It attempts a brute-force attack on greatness and comes up short.
