The player will start the game as a normal police officer, before being promoted to the traffic desk. It is during these cases that players will start to search for clues and be able to question suspects. Along with the main cases, players will be able to respond to street crimes that occur throughout Los Angeles.

5 The Driver's Seat

During the first case on the traffic desk, the player will need to go to a freight yard to investigate a car full of blood. After interviewing the witness at the scene and searching the car, the player will need to go to the car owner's house. They will find his wife there, needing to question her and search the house.

By finding a matchbook, the player can go to a bar. They will find the missing man's friend, who says he knows nothing about the missing man. Going to the friend's apartment will reveal the missing man faked his death, leading to his arrest.

4 Consul's Car

Cole Phelps will be called to investigate a car left in a man's back yard. Searching the car reveals it belongs to the Argentinian consul, a man named Valdez. Talking to the man whose backyard it is located in will give a clue as to who stripped the car. Players will then go to a car dealership, confirming who did it.

Phelps can also interview the consul at the police station, revealing he is a pedophile. He cannot be charged because of diplomatic immunity, however. Tracking down the address of the criminal will reveal the man is taking part in a street race. Heading to the street race will result in a chase, where the player must destroy the criminal's car. He is then caught and taken into police custody.

3 A Marriage Made In Heaven

Going to the victim's house will reveal his wife is still there. She will not seem too upset with his death, claiming they married after only knowing each other for a week. A call will come from the morgue, prompting the player to head over there. The coroner will say the victim was actually stabbed, causing the player to go back to the victim's house and arrest his wife & her new lover.

2 A Slip Of The Tongue

This case was included as DLC for L.A. Noire, having the player solve a case of stolen cars and find people illegally selling them. The first part has the players chase down a man, disabling his vehicle & questioning him. He will give players the address to a vehicle dealership, allowing Phelps to go there and interrogate the man who owns it. Doing this will give the players an address to another suspect, but it will be an empty lot.

A suspect who was driving a stolen car will be at the police station, allowing players to interrogate him. Doing so will reveal the location of a woman involved, with the man in custody saying she is close by. She indeed is, and interrogating her will give the player the address to the people printing the illegal pink slips. This will lead to a warehouse where a shootout will occur, and the man behind the crimes will be arrested.

1 The Fallen Idol

Heading to a crash site, players will find many items that hint at a woman being sexually assaulted. A pair of ripped underwear can be found, along with a note from the victim's mother. The driver will be up the hill, saying she does not remember much and she was the only one. Players who say she is lying and use the underwear as proof will get more information out of her.

Going to the hospital will have the player speak to the other victim, a 15-year-old who ran away from home. She will lie, afraid of getting in trouble. After talking to the young girl, the player will need to tail the other woman from the hospital to a café. She will mention a man named Mark Bishop, a movie producer, and the player will need to go to his apartment. Doing this gives the player evidence and then they must go to a prop studio. Investigating the studio reveals that Bishop spies on women as they get dressed, preying on younger women. This will cause the player to go to a movie set, where they will chase Mark Bishop down and arrest him, causing Phelps to be promoted to the next desk.
