There was one person that was loyal to Cole from the beginning
The Phone Line Lady, no matter the circumstances and despite the fact that Cole cheated on his wife, the phone line lady continued to help Cole and Jack when they needed, whenever they needed sone assistance, she’s always there to ask “How can I help, detective?”
She's the real MVP!
Yo ifkr.. I wished that they would meet
Makes sense: Operator only cares about facts, not gossip.
Stephan bekowski
Yeeeees she did her job..
Anyone felt any sympathy for Hogeboom? The guy was so traumatized by what he did at Okinawa, burning the civilians alive by Phelps' orders, it truly felt like he was mentally "killed" by the horror he committed. And if that's enough pain for him to suffer through, his own psychiatrist uses him to burn down the bogus properties just so he and his other co-conspirators can cash in on the urban fund.
I really enjoyed the backstory of some of the important characters during their service in the Pacific Theater. Shows how much some try to abandon the wounds they've sustained in the past while others were already long gone because their wounds cut deeper than the skin.
Hogeboom is one of the most tragic characters I had the pleasure to see. I felt sympathetic towards him because he wasn't an evil guy, rather a severely misguided one.
I was surprised to see him die
@@trooper_springhat3722 I wasn't. Not to say I didn't sympathised with him, because I did. Immensely. It's just... This outcome was objectively the best, and Kelso knew it. What are the other options? Life sentence? Psychiatric ward? None of this will ever fix what Fontaine has done to him or what Phelps did...
Sidenote 1: Upon writing this I discovered he's only 30 y.o.! I was thinking he's like 50 or so... I was always thinking stress can actually accelerate aging, but my god...
Sidenote 2: I'm surprised I missed how bad Phelps was in the L. A. Noire. He didn't even realised Ira was in his squad, despite all things they've been through AND the fact Kelso told him there's someone from their squad out there. He's an antihero, borderline villain of his own and the lives of the people around him
The only one who's backstory didn't bring any more light on his character was Kelso
Дмитрий Сергиенко he was more of a commander and wasn’t on the field as much as jack
The way Roy's voice cracks when he says 'And may I say a good friend' is just a perfect piece of acting on so many levels.
I wonder if he was faking it to save face or if it was genuine. Despite ruining Cole’s reputation, he was the one who got him promoted to Homicide and Vice, he almost saw him as a protoge, and respected him in a twisted way. He wanted Phelps to also become a dirty cop like him, but he realized that Cole was an honest goody two shoes
@@theTrevorluck I'm 99.9% sure he was acting. I mean hypocrisy is the central theme of the ending - you see that him, the mayor and the chief got away, and Peterson, who knew very well that they're dirty, struck a deal with them and now shakes their hands with a warm smile like they're best buddies. Roy helped to promote Phelps because he saw he's good and he could use a great partner, but yea he figured that Cole was too clean and sold him to the Suburban basically.
I can imagine if Cole is dead confirmed in the sequel then Cole's ghost or spirit would haunt Roy.
I kinda feel he regretted what he did to Phelps
I’m not annoyed about the fact that Cole died, I’m annoyed that Roy lived
I'm annoyed at a lot of things.
How stupid Sheldon and Elsa were, why did Ira take Elsa to the sewers to begin with, the short unsatisfying ending after at least 20+ hours of gameplay, how homicide was all about one single perp that already got old and repetitive after the third case, how it was never elaborated what happened between Floyd Rose and Errol Schroeder, how there's a big damn city with nothing really interesting to explore, how there's little diversity in Street Crimes, how all we know about Cole's life is just his time as a marine, barely seeing his wife or even how and why he got into a relationship with Elsa, I could name a few more things but I don't want to.
I like this game, but God Almighty there's a lot of problems with it, I admit it's a little underrated perhaps, but at best I can give is a 7/10.
Me to
If you watch the ending cutscene as Roy finishes his eulogy he says "a detective who fought to expose the evil corruption of the murderous Dr Fontaine and the rapacious property tycoon Leland Monroe" meaning that they will take the fall while Roy, William and Fletcher all bargain their way out with Leonard Peterson. I'm assuming that Peterson may have abandoned his crusade against corruption but I'm wondering how he got Roy, William and Fletcher to bargain their way out possibly blackmailing them to exonerate Cole Phelps and securing Jack Kelso in exchange for his position as District Attorney replacing the corrupt Donald Sandler if not compliant he'd expose their notorious corruption. Nearing the end he begins to stutter though hardly noticeable considering and possibly he felt extremely guilty.
I’m annoyed about both. I don’t understand why this game has such a sad ending. It really doesn’t need to have one. You’re playing as a virtuous law enforcement official. With a game like GTA or RDR, where you play as a criminal, I would prefer a sadder ending as criminals don’t really deserve happy endings. I’m not saying LA Noire should tone down on any seriousness. I just think a MUCH better ending would be where Cole Phelps survives and Roy Earle dies.
@@big4skol83 I feel you bro 1000
Even after all these years, and these countless replays, the ending gets me every single time.
AGREED
2020, and it still does
Me too bro

Yeah same first time i ”cried” after completin a video game.
2:11 - Best moment ever. The actor did amazing.
MegamanNG and all for the dude that shot him too
Gave me chills
MegamanNG Yas when i was playing this i was like "DAMNNNNNNN phelps"
Cole had raised his voice many times up to that point as a method of asserting dominance instead of emotion, but that might be the first time he actually yelled at somebody.
@@princesslaravincenzo9596 I wish he did too. I hate that smug condescending racist and sexist prick. He was asking for it. I hate how he gets away scot free with the others.
Ending really shows how life works. What a spit in the face of Cole with Roy speaking at his funeral. And how empty it was as well because the LAPD destroyed his character so save themselves
Trust me cole was better off because he had no case with two witnesses dead one going to prison not to mention a divorced an a adultery charge he was no Max Payne of course they were in different time periods
@@kingsboro1 yeah i agree; if Cole didn’t die… he was looking forward to a load of shit waiting for him.
It’s a bittersweet ending. Cole’s name is somewhat cleared, some of the men responsible are either dead or going down, and he managed to save a few of the people he cared about
Leonard blackmailed the Chief of Police, the Mayor, and Roy Earle to exonerate Cole Phelps of all the previous accusations and wrongdoings including the affair with Elsa Lichtmann and have Leland Monroe, Harlan Fontaine, Raymond Gordon, Curtis Benson, and Donald Sandlers take the fall in exchange for his position as DA. It wasn't good that Leonard abandoned his crusade against the Vice Squad but I assume Leonard knows who Cole Phelps really is even though Phelps just made friends with Elsa Lichtmann.
You have to wonder how many Cops were on the take and how many were simply following orders to take out Phelps and Kelso because they didn't know any better?
_JUMP, COLE! JUMP FOR IT!_
Phelps: Goodbye.
Dont open the wounds
@Human Monster 724 wha
I love how when Kelso gets shot they use a sound bite of Cole screaming.
Ira Hogeboom died at Okinawa: he is there physically speaking, but mentally he never came back out of there alive.

I just beat it finally. I bought the special edition when it came out forever ago but never got very far through the game because I was young. I think it might be the best game I have ever played.
Even though this game is 6 years old, the ending still pisses me off. Not because Phelps dies, but because most corrupt assholes were still left in charge. Dead Fontaine and Monroe in prison isn't good enough. Because Worrell, Bowron and miserable prick Roy were left unpunished.
That's life.
Bruce Lee dies at 32, but assholes, like Charles Manson, live to be 83.
moviemetalhead that's the point. I don't need that crap in the videogame or a movie, because life is full of injustice already.
You might want to stop playing R* games altogether then.
moviemetalhead do you even know what you're talking about? GTA V ending was great, all protagonists survive, Red Dead Demption Marston dies, but his death was avenged by his son, GTA IV ending is good, since no one really gives a fuck about Kate, TBOGT and TLAD endings - good, GTA SA ending good, GTA VC ending good, GTA III ending good.
TCMustang I'm just saying injustice is a common theme in R* games.
I've always loved the fact that Cole defends Sheldon even when he's the one who shot him after the incident in the cave
And how Roy spoke at Cole’s funeral even though he betrayed cole and ruined his life
@@jahsehsgoons Roy is a snake.
Cole on the other hand felt terrible guilt over what happened in the war, in addition to guilt over the medal he was given and knew he didn't deserve, and thus Cole didn't blame Sheldon for shooting him. Cole knew he deserved to be shot.
I think, once he came to terms with it, Cole realised that he deserved it. Remember, if it had ever gotten out that they'd burned a Civilian Field Hospital, they'd have been charged with Crimes of War.
What an ending. I hope they make a sequel for Jack Kelso or just a sequel in general.
A sequel in were Roy dies
Frenk Tobi. Fuck yeah
YES!
I know how I'd have Roy meet his judgement.
Maybe it could be a two-player sequel, with Bekowsky and Galloway since they're partners
Cole didn't die, he'll spawn outside of the hospital with -5000/10000$ Hospital insurance taken out from his bank account.
with those kind of money, you could buy like 3 Z-Types back then...

I find it ironic that the most 'tough guy' and corrupt out of all his partners is the one that gets the most hurt and choked up at cole's funeral.
He was lying his ass off to save face and use Cole's death to make himself look like a decent guy. Probably also got him out of trouble with the DA since he was involved with the Suburban Redevelopment Fund.
Well, aren't all funerals like this?
@@MrMichealHouse Or maybe he did respect Cole, in his own twisted way.
Jorge Bersabe - Most likely. Hard not to respect someone who started as a beat cop and shot up all the way to Vice Detective in less than a year
Crocodile tears.
wow Courtney started it. He suggested the heist yet he was treated like a nobody. Felt bad for Courtney but now i realize he caused the fall of Cole Phelps
robert hanney
It was that bitch Elsa.
Pussy always the cause of a fall
Super Trini Gamer No it wasn't.
Pride comes before the fall. Cole’s self righteousness caused his own fall. His relentlessness to investigate The Subdevelopment Fund created threats to those involved. So Cole’s weaknesses were exploited. His inability to share with his wife about his days in the war lead to him seeking out Elsa. Who like Cole, had something in common when it came to war. That destroyed his family and his image. Cole essentially died a martyr for his cause in what he felt was his good fight.
Actually you are partially right: Courtney did rob the SS Coolridge, but the catalyst of that is Cole being condecorated for being the last man standing for cowardice. Courtney, despite his naiveté and impulsivity, he did genuinely want to give himself and his teammates a better life, a reward for their unsung efforts during the war.
R.I️.P Cole Phelps, you’ll always be remembered for your heroic ways
And cheating on your wife and kids

same goes for me man...
Me too man. I’m so broken up about the game being over and that sad ending. Fuck Roy Earle
Same
Cole redeemed himself he died a heroic death
The last mission, the escorting of Jack Kelso to the LA River Tunnels, was the most memorable part of the game to me. The radio chatter sealed the severity of the conspiracy for me - how KGPL wasn’t telling the responding police officers, who are presumably innocently following orders, that they were pursuing, and using deadly force on a DA’s Investigator…or that he was being escorted by two LAPD detectives.
Technically, they did say the "Second Suspect Vehicle" was a Police Vehicle as they said the Department Shop Number. No doubt a few Officers recognised it as 11K but assumed it must have been stolen.
Man I wish during free roam you could enter all the interiors from the cases, that would be amazing and I'd love to see a sequel in the 60s during the Cold War maybe in New York or Chicago.
Eduardo Everett or Seattle Washington
Dc noire
chicago would be greaat
Ha, I'd love to see a British version; zipping around 1950's London in a Wolsley, the Winkworth Gong clanging like mad , suddenly hearing on the radio "MP calling Car 11 Kilo" and going to step into a Police Box, only for someone to go "Sorry, this one's occupied!" before it suddenly vanishes before my eyes.
part 2 in LA again but now in the 80s with cocaine and the CIA
Out of all rockstar games character deaths his the most surprising. It was like boom he dead.
this isnt rockstar game lol,is team bondi game
@Jahnove Georges Rockstar pretty much just published it, aside from some support they gave to Team Bondi with Rockstar NYC
@Jahnove Georges team bondi made it and R* published it
@@space.pirate481 It is. Team Bondi and Rockstar Games worked together to develop this game. Rockstar Games was also responsible for this remaster.
the ending was sad
2:40 gives me the chills you can really sense the anger after Roy betraying him and ruining his life
That final flashback cutscene, if Jack Kelso had went and told someone what he knew about the morphine theft the entire morphine story arc and any thing related to it could've been different. Cole could've lived.
Good point. Might have something to do with his "courage is a fickle thing" line and why he told cole to wuit beating himself up over that medal. He kept quiet cause he didnt have the courage once too and it was a mistake.
I always view Phelps and Kelso as being two sides of the same coin, both with their own flaws and virtues that when putting aside their differences could've made an incredible team in the field, but their animosity got in the way and as such both men paid for their sins but in different ways at the end.
@@charlesburgess4511 "two men who should've been friends, but their personalities got in the way..."
When i was younger I didn’t like this ending thought it was too sad depressing but now that I’m older I love it and definitely feels like how an old true Noire movie would end.
Jack Kelso is such a badass. Thank you so much for uploading all of these. I've been binging them like a show. I appreciate all the work you put in.
The way he said goodbye is haunting
I just finished this game 2 minutes ago and i can’t believe this ending
I did too dude
Same literally right now
Me too. I literally just hit the credits a couple minutes ago. I’m pretty sad actually. I’ve never had a game hit me with emotions this hard. Damn.
@@jayst he died dough. That hit hard
@@bolobalaman yeah it hit real hard. I’ve actually been watching LA Noire related videos for the last 4 hours since I beat the game. Seeing how it was made, what happened to the company, chances of a sequel, etc. I’m actually even more sad seeing what happened with Team Bondi after the game came out 10 years ago. Looks like we aren’t getting a sequel. Really sucks. RIP Cole Phelps.
Imagine seeing L.A. Noire 2 with Phelps back to his life, he never died.
DarkMythHunter Cole was the best character in a game full of great characters they gotta bring him back Kelso is okay but hes basic compared to Phelps
Yeah, no I mean they had a coffin with his corpse, come on that wasn't some John Doe lol
But still, perhaps they could get creative, maybe some flashback missions or cutscenes with Phelps or something, main game with Kelso (personally I thought he was cooler than Phelps lol)
This series still has good potential, I don't care what anyone says. It's criminal that they stopped making DLC for this game though, imho
shyguy778 i mean they made 5 new cases lol thats pretty much a brand new desk when u think about it lol
Now, what REALLY pisses me off was the fact that these cases were originally part of the base game, but they decided that there was "too much content", so they removed some story missions and turned them into PAID DLC =@@@
So in effect, there was no DLC even released for this game. It just got abandoned ... really upsetting. This game was a very unique gem that carved an entire genre for itself on the PS3 (and that is an impressive feat).
It deserved better than this. There should have been episodic content constantly being released periodically to keep interest for this game, almost like Hitman (2016).
If they had done that, then this game would truly have been a masterpiece ...
shyguy778 The dlc cases are great too without DLC the desks have this many cases Traffic-3 Homicide-6 Vice-3 Arson-4 with dlc its Traffic-5 Homicide-6 Vice-5 Arson-5 it's a MUCH more complete game with the dlc cases plus when u play the complete or remastered edition the dlc cases are thrown in seamlessly during the campaign its great also the game is a masterpiece except a few complaints 1. I disagree with Cole's death and im.not even against killing off player characters but in this case i absolutely am 2. I like the homicide desk but every case is the BD case and every person u arrest didnt commit the murder i wish only 2 of the cases surrounded the BD not every one of them i wish it was seperate cases like Traffic for example so every new case felt fresh best desk was Vice imho
to this day it is still one of my favourite games
Just completed the final mission, certainly didn't see Cole's death coming.
Sad ending.
Same
That carchase tho they really managed to set the mood with the radiochatter and the rain. The chatter on the radio really shows how desperate Worrel is to get Jack.
I swear this game and Red Dead makes GTA and Bully look like a "Fairy Tale"
Ike Drakeford yeah this game is amazing I love the story concept and characters it just felt so real
My two favorite games. Rdr1 and L.A. Noire.
Not GTA 4
Noone dies in Bully lol
Arthur and Phelps' deaths still haunt me.
Cole Phelps death shouldn't have been so disappointingly underwhelming considering how climatic everything before it was
Nazrat84 LA Noire is 97% amazing and timeless like a classic movie. But that ending was a damn joke i get they wanted to be edgy and give it a Chinatown type ending but my god it didn't fit and made zero sense they could of killed off ANYONE Elsa, Jack and i would of been fine. Coles "death" ruins the replayability and longevity of the story imo. Poorly done. And thats a shame bcuz the game is 97% a masterpiece. Its like a Mona Lisa that has a huge white smudge of paint taking up 3% of the painting lol
Rob Nickerson lol no. Cole giving his life to save others was the only sensitive way of ending his character arc tbh.
Rob Nickerson Totally agree. At least a tiny bit of a moment from him wanting to redeem himself whether it was through a flashback or a dialogue exchange would have made his death give that stamp of “yes that was a good death”. Even up to one of his last lines was about needing the guy alive to make a case. So perhaps a line or two by Elsa telling him directly what a good man he was to her or his ex-wife or his daughters say something about him being a hero, just anything, to flesh out his desire to “make right” his past would have been enough to round out the main storyline.

@@bigdummy3443 I did. I wanna get my point across to as many ppl as possible lmao
When he said "i was proud serving you jack". I almost cried
Poor Ira,our cowboy deserved so much better😢
That final "goodbye" though. That gets me every time.
The facial recognition was such a masterstroke. The surprise on Herschel's face at 2:09 says so much on it's own. Even more with context.
That ending sucks even though Cole cheated I still wish he would have lived and had a relationship with Elsa. It also would be a cool touch if his wife came to his funeral. Oh wait they did
2:36 "You say one more word about him and i will blow your FUCKING head off!" That line was so well delivered. aaron is an awesome actor.
Cole didn’t die he escaped to a town called Los Santos and had a Grandson named Michael
Would be funny if that were true in some sort of spinoff light novel story or alternate universe entirely, solely for the fact phelps was a guy who stopped robberies and michael led them.

What about Hot Phelps? Is he involved?
@@petrwarthursty2011 What about Lukewarm Phelps?
@@themanwiththeplan728Now hold on, I think that was Room Temperature Phelps.
@@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 Listen here sonny, that was Lukewarm Phelps. I have it on good authority that he was there
34:33 Roy is a more complex character than we think, when he says “and may I say a good friend” looks like he rejected what he did to Cole, he is emotional, and feelings cannot be faked easily. I want to believe that from then on, Roy had a turning point on his behavior
Was going to upvote until the whole turning point crap (lol). If there's one thing about Roy, it is his consistency in bullshit, even if it does always contain a speck of genuine compassionate emotion that only sows itself once in the entire game.
Roy is what he is, for better or for worse, and he will never change. He is already all he will ever be. Anything "different" that changes his character can only possibly be what is hidden within him, that he shares with no-one.
I think Roy did genuinely respect Phelps. He DID go out of his way to get him as a partner, and during the Vice case when the British boxer makes a run for it, Roy goes against his normally selfish nature by letting Phelps protect the man (even if under vocal protest).
Is Roy a good guy for that? No, but I can appreciate that he had genuine respect for Cole. I *would* say he laid it on a little thick, especially given how poorly they get along in the end (with good reason)--and that you can fake.
He absolutely did *not* have a turning point. However, I feel that no one had to twist his arm to be there. I do feel this scene makes him a more complicated person in subtle ways, and I like it for that.
@@asayospacegoat6384 While Roy is an asshole through and through, he might have seen Cole as a worthy opponent at least.
ArthurMuneh Roy definitely is an asshole, but he’s actually right sometimes. For example, he said during one of the cases, that police can’t defeat drugs, they can only keep drugs out of streets and that’s kinda logical and true. There’s not a single black or white character in this game, none of them is an angel or a devil, they’re all just people with sins and vices and that’s what makes this game so damn good for me
Ooh, I never thought of it that way...
Just finished the game today
When end credits started rolling I couldn’t stop crying.
Couldn’t believe it almost 10 years old game. This game will remain in my top list forever.
At first, I felt heartbroken and thought it would be nice if there is another ending (like GTAV) but then just realized this one is fine for me.
Aw you complete it. RIP Ma Nigga cole phelps :(
he's not a nigga
Don’t you just hate games that kill the protagonist at the end!?
Josue Cruz No
Shut up lol
I'm bored of the typical "good always win" bullshit. Not every story is a fairytale.
Josue Cruz its noire
I'd rather see the protagonist and the antagonist just disappear. See if some other characters react.
Dude the moment Cole Phelps says goodbye could have been 10 times more dramatic
There should’ve at least been a post credit scene like the Departed. One where Kelso shows up at Earles apartment and clips him. It would’ve at least made the ending a bit satisfactory cuz seriously fuck Roy.
Considering Jack knew all along about what Courtney did, he sure made himself sound like a hypocrite in regards to certain conversations with Cole.
Jack was a marine and they look out for their brothers that's the code jack didn't know that courtney was officially involved until you read one of the newspapers
I guess that’s what Jack meant by courage being a temporary thing. In a way, he was basically admitting “this is kind of my fault too for not speaking up when I should have.”
Looks like Cole dieing in the last mission was a surprise to many of you ( I won't gonna lie the first time i finished the game I was too) But Completing it for the second time i was convinced that it was best that Cole died a "hero's death" rather living with the regrets that he made through out his life especially with the number of bad calls/decisions he took during the war....And specially when he ordered his subordinate ira to burn the civilians to death which were in caves and hospitals as it's said in the flashback and if you may notice when the wave of water is about to hit Cole he willingly hesitates a bit and that only means he wants to die a hero's death rather live with his regrets and may I say that the bravery award was also his biggest regret although he did not ask for it but he knew he didn't deserve that !! And that's my piece of mind and you have the right to agree or disagree !!
It is nobler to die a Hero than live a Coward.
@@flashstudiosguy You sure get to live longer, though, even if you have to die a bit every day.
@@TheGreenReaper But does a Hero's legacy not live longer than a Coward's natural life?
@@flashstudiosguy Perhaps, but few truly remember those people. Russia has kids hold up photographs of dead war heroes, but someone tried asking them about the people once and they had no clue.
Cole Phelps is really still alive he survived the flood and comes back up to continue his case
Mike Hancho he sure had a plan !
Then searches for evidences and says "Very optimistic Cole."
(X) Doubt
But seriously, I'm pretty sure he's dead, canon wise.
Cole is a hero
Biggs spent most of his career pushing people away and refused to have a partner because of his trauma during war. He closed himself emotionally from others as to not attach himself emotionally and suffer when they die.
Even then, he was forced to work alongside Phelps which was the only detective he seemed to trust and opened up to him about his experiences during WWI. He even went as far as putting his career and life in danger to help Phelps solve cases and save Elsa.
And at the end Phelps dies horribly in front of Biggs, as he's unable to help.
Poor guy could never catch a break.
Jeez, I never realized how tragic this is from Herschel's point of view. :( Herschel is one of the best characters in the game imo
it's fitting then that he gets to be the narrator of the game
You can understand from the final cases that Phelps has lost it a bit, but he's still so ambitious and smart
I actually bought this game for 5.00 and liked this game alot!!
I payed 7 $ but still lol me too
I hope there will be a sequel for this. This game was remastered and got a VR release for a reason.
I thought the narrator at the beginning of the game was an old Phelps, I didn't expect that ending. In more than 10 years I had never seen any spoilers about it, which is impressive. I had played it a few years ago but never finished, so I knew I needed to finish this game at some point. Damn, that ending hurt me more than Arthur's death.

I played this game 2 years ago and I still think it’s one of the best rock star game stories I’ve ever played and it’s conclusion proved that Cole was right that there was a conspiracy with the house fires just no one believed him and if he had lived would of solved probably the biggest insurance scandal in the game
Still the best the game I have ever played.
Phelps was a true hero and the sherlock holmes of america but what if he escaped the tunnel could he still be alive or not because he can swim out of there
Roni G LA Noire is 97% amazing and timeless like a classic movie. But that ending was a damn joke i get they wanted to be edgy and give it a Chinatown type ending but my god it didn't fit and made zero sense they could of killed off ANYONE Elsa, Jack and i would of been fine. Coles "death" ruins the replayability and longevity of the story imo. Poorly done. And thats a shame bcuz the game is 97% a masterpiece. Its like a Mona Lisa that has a huge white smudge of paint taking up 3% of the painting lol
they had a coffin in the funeral , they had his body , it is not a matter of knowing how to swim , it is a matter of being made of steel , only then would he survive the force of the wave hitting him , in other words , he is 100% dead .I hope there's enough space in heaven in the end......
Petran Moudatsos no way the wave killed him on impact it wasnt that big also his body was never found the writer confirmed
Petran Moudatsos Another reason they killed cole was bcuz they wanted to show how someone as straight laced as Cole would get chewed up and spit out by a corrupt city like LA i get all that but they still didnt need to kill him john Marston's death made sense Coles didn't
I sum this up with just a quote from The Dark Knight, "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
Sacrificed himself for the team ;-;
Press F to pay respects

Yes Press F To Pay Respects Forever !
There is a way cole coulda gotten out alive...If instead of killing Ira w his gun, they coulda taken him to their exit and after Cole helped Elsa & Jack out, Ira coulda helped Cole get out and Ira would've just let the flood do him the favor. 😕
Sad 😞 and great story (writing). 👍🏼
His men hated him after that bad order and he still tried to do good.
Wonder if the DA got those corrupt heads arrested.
Rockstar has the best stories!!
After buying L.A. Noire for my PS4, and finishing the Vice desk and finding that newspaper where Roy rats out Cole... I'm disappointed in him. I liked Phelps, but when he develop feelings for the german jazz singer (forgot her name) I lost some respect for him. But still, he's one of my fav characters.
And Roy, that corrupt, racist scumbag asshole hopes he gets killed in L.A. Noire 2... but that will never happen :(
The German jazz singer's name Elsa Lichtmann
I felt the same way too my first time playing the game. But then I did the storyline again (and again and again 😋) I realized how much sense Cole and Elsa make. They’re both tortured souls and find comfort in each other and help the other get over their demons
Corrupt cops sometimes do get their come-uppance, so don't be too downheartened. His gangster friends may decide he's outlived his usefulness at some point.
I kinda wish that would happen though.
Just finished this game for the 2nd time. I was definitely not smart enough to completely understand it back then. I played it as a freshman in high school... Such a great game. Definitely one of the best I've ever played.
It was such a good game
however its a matter of sorrow that the developing team Bondi went bankrupt so maybe no chance of getting any sequel
Just ended this game... Feeling sad for Cole.. "Goodbye"
Rest in Paradise Cole Phelps 🙏🏽
RIP Kenny Cosgrove
19:49 When he said "what's your offer" i got an AutoZone ad XD
Just got done beating the game. It’s such a good story...
This is the greatest cop game ever 100
A well made game...Graphics, authenticity of the timeframe, and in accordance with the Film Noir style when it comes to the storyline execution... Where's the next one, RS? It's 8 years (2019 now) long overdue!
I just finished this game on Ps4 today very sad ending loved Cole and Jack great game
"Hundreds of thousands of dollars" 8)
Inflation between 1947 and now is roughly 1000%
Kind of a let down when you think that we have cars (not even houses or boats or planes) that have been sold for more than the value of all that morphine. Who wouldnt want a 20 million dollar Ferrari anyway?
"Keep your voice down" He shouts, for everyone to hear
If this game gets a sequel, (I doubt it though) I think that it should be set during the 60's. Think about it. A new war, with an enemy you can't even see nor shoot, and a war with no clear goal. Elsa could've had a child with Cole, and that child could be his predecessor, with him tying the loose ends of his father.
This! Great idea. Is so cool to see recent comments like this in so many videos about L.A. noire.
Of his daughters if this was rl image the stuff that would be going through
'You're wounded Jack, let me help!'
Can't believe Micah died twice.
Roy made this speech that can make a person shed in tears.
Was I the only one that noticed Bekowsky at 34:12?
This ending is right up there with how rdr2 ended with Arthur
this was the first time in my life that i felt why i cried
I like Jack he's a good man, and i don' t know why but i like Sheldon too..R.I.P Sheldon
I love these two. R.I.P Courtney Sheldon
Phelps has a voice crack at 30:50 and my god I’m laughing
More of a voice break than a voice crack, really. Happens when you’re stressed, angry, sad. Whenever you’re full of emotion really
"Oh hey! Phelps never reported Sheldon for shooting him in the back!"
"Oh wait... that's probably because he really didn't want anyone to blab about the cave."
R.I.P COLE PHELPS
Everyone forget this game probably one of their greatest for people who are intuitive
I always remember feeling kind of depressed during the car chase because I thought one of the unmarked police cars chasing Kelso was Bekowsky's, and that he had turned out to be corrupt as well.
Can't believe this was released 10 years ago!! One of the best games of all time and a starting point for the technologies of rockstar games going forward which literally changed the world
