Which should I play first?

[unicron44]

I just started a Gamefly subscription and I got LA Noire and Crysis 2 in the mail. I'm very interested in both games and I was wondering which one Escapists thought was better to jump into.

I'd have to say Crysis 2.

Biased opinion though, I haven't played LA Noire yet so can't judge.

Your preferences would be nice, I want to make an educated guess.
The better among the two...
They are both good, but each caters to a different player and preferences.

I hardly play FPS's and never played a game like LA Noire so I was just wondering based on an outside POV.

Then I say go with LA Noire.
It has a unique feel to it that Crysis 2 lost when the numerical number shifted from 1 to 2.

Go with LA Noire , it's original and different , and if you like it could keep you interested for hours on end . I vote for originality over same ol fps bs .

Thanks for the advice.

LA Noire is a far better game but it's also much longer. Maybe play Crysis 2 first since you could beat it in about 8 hours, while LA Noire can take 25-30 hours.

Crysis 2 is just IMMORTAL SPEHS MAHREN KILL ALEINS WITH FIST

If it were me, I'd pick up LA Noire first. But I think both have their pros and cons. LA Noire gets repetitive very fast and Crysis 2 has a weak campaign mode. LA Noire is definitely the longer of the two and you'll probably get more out of it. They can both be enjoyable though. Personally I had more fun with LA Noire.
