L.A. Noire

[DJCowboy]

An upcoming game from Rockstar (which is usually a good thing) that looks pretty interesting. You play a detective in 1950s Los Angeles and you have to solve a series of crimes but, from what I understand, there is a main serial killer or something you're tryiing to track down

1950's? I read that it was 1947, according to LEVEL, Sweden's best gaming magazine.

I don't know much about this game, but I'm definitely going to check it out.

I'm looking forward to this game. Rockstar hasn't disappointed me yet so I have high hopes for this.

Can you beat up hookers?

Can you beat up hookers?

There has never been a game that allowed such a despicable act! I can't see them starting now.

Shame on you even mentioning such a crude and cruel act!!!

Now I am going to go play some Grand Theft Auto. The video game for people trying to adjust life after prison. It is highly educational and entertaining! I accidentally hit into a police car and they arrest me. Just as it should be.

I've got a buddy on the dev team, I've been pumped for this for quite a while. If only people knew the work that went into the engine.

 

[L3ggy]

Well, it must be a lot, considering this game has been in the making for seven years.

My buddy said just by himself, he worked for about 9 months straight at about 11 hours a day, just to get the details of facial animation in the eye region down. Crazy.

 

[L3ggy]

Shiiit! That's a lot of work.

 

[abejarano12]

I heard that it was getting pushed back. If so that sucks it looks like a great game

 

[DJCowboy]

Video of the tech they used for getting facial expressions down. Pretty freaking impressive

I read somewhere that the release date is 5/20 or something

 

[smithey92]

Yes, released date is 20th may.

Looking forward to this, after Red Dead Redemption gave me the chance to star in a cowboy movie now I can take the lead role in a 40s noir crime movie!

 

[mrtrebus]

Looks like some decent bonus content depending on where you buy it from. But why don't they just include it in the game? Not a fan of this sort of thing to be honest.

Looks better and better each time a new trailer comes out!

 

[pluggs999]

If it is just half as good as Red Dead Redemption this game is going to be awesome

I'm so excited for this game. I love the technology behind the facial expressions and how you have to read people's faces to tell if they're lying or uncomfortable or being truthful. This and Mass Effect 3 are probably going to be the the only games I buy the day they come out this year.
