Chinatown is my favorite movie. With that said, I'd recommend Private Eye (based on an actual Raymond Chandler novel). Grim Fandango, my favorite AG, has strong connections to Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon, making it a must for noir lovers. For a more cyberpunk feel, you can't go wrong with Fate by Numbers or Blade Runner. And while Still Life is, imho, the best adventure of the 21st century so far (though as a Chicagoan, I'm biased), its prequel, Post Mortem, is far more noir, with a femme fatale, more of a "shadows from venetian blinds" atmosphere, etc.
My $0.02.
