Team Bondi's L.A. NOIRE |OT| Watchin' Faces, Solvin' Cases
- Thread starter ColonialRaptor
- Start date
You know, I'm not sure if the buttons are mockups just thrown into the trailer, but if you download the L.A. Noire trailer on your Xbox 360 console, it displays all of the Xbox buttons as if the trailer had footage taken from that version of the game. If that is the case, it is completely identical (but of course on 3 discs!).
And nice OT! 360 preordered!!!

I can't wait for this game. After reading the preview for this by Alex Navarro at GiantBomb, I've been hyped. Day 1.

I anticipate being annoyed if PSN isn't up for me to download the DLC case on Tuesday.

Nice OT. Love the eight pictures of Coles face, it really shows how well. the motionscan system works. Did you make that passport thing? Its a great OT though you can tell you got lazy towards the end those headings are too close together.
PS3 version for me. Dont really care about superior version graphically with this game because its not really a hugely graphically intensive game anyway.
Only one week now!

I will now be bobbing my head side to side with a big smile on my face, while singing "Watchin' faces, solvin' cases" as I play this game.

Yea there's ads all over nyc, just about every train station I go into had an ad at the top of the entrance. Not to mention there's probably a few huge ads on the side of buildings that rockstar always seem bonuses for their games.BenjaminBirdie said:

I don't know about you guys but I really hope action/killing is kept a minimum in this game.
For me, RDR was somewhat ruined by the fact you killed 1000s of guys by the end of the game. It was so immersive that it just felt wrong. I would've much preferred if missions had you have one enemy to face, rather than waves of them.
I feel the same about this game - I want a lot of down time, just investigating, looking for clues, going about your business as a cop. Chase down criminals? Sure. The odd car chase? That's fine. However, if by the end of the game I've shot my way through half of the city, I will feel slightly disappointed, to be honest. Everything else about this game looks like it has captured police work pretty damn well, I don't want to have ultimately killed more people than the criminals I'm after.
The reality of making a video game for a mass audience means this will probably be the case, but eh, I hope it's not too bad. Certain quotes have certainly implied you will be doing more mundane things, which is good. I'm just curious to see how dedicated they'll be to that and what direction they'll take.

Been looking forward to this game since the initial trailer. For a brief while I thought it was vaporware but then snapped out of it and just believed it was just too awesome to show too early.

I got like 40 gigs left on my 250HD, I deleted most stuff I don't need but I like having even games I beat installed since most are pretty good to great games and worth playing more than once. I like having all my games ready to pop in and play off the HD, I never play games anymore straight from the disc too much risk imo in putting strain on the system.
I would love it if it were something like the SWAT games even, and there was the possibility of criminals surrendering so you could arrest them. But I'm expecting all the bad guys to have odd death wishes and think getting into shootouts with the cops will somehow end well for them.Foliorum Viridum said:

I'm hoping for someone in the quality of RDR. So far, so good.

Being able to arrest a good majority of criminals is exactly the type of thing I want. Your gun should be left as a last resort in a really fucked up situation.JBuccCP said:
It'd be cool that even if you lost a suspect it wasn't mission failed, retry, etc etc. But I don't know if that would be the case.

Rockstar( and team bondi) really need to get back on the PC wagon. This is just depressing. Will probably pick up on PS3 after i play the Witcher 2.

To all scandinavians: GAME is running an insane deal on the game in Norway/Sweden/Denmark.
If you have a membership there you can buy it for 449NOK (and the equivalent for Denmark/Sweden) and get the entire amount back if you trade it in withing two weeks of release.

I actually thought this was a GTA rip then it slowly sank in about the athlete.
AM EXCITE!
Witcher 2 and LA Noire ... fantastic!
I thought that game could have been an all-timer if they made the confrontations rarer and more challenging. It really had the shell of a great creepy investigative game. Of course then they turned around and went completely in the other direction for the monstertastic sequel.Atomski said:

yeah, for some reason it concerns me more than most games. I have the 360 version ordered but this game seems like one where watching and listening to conversations is the meat. I'm hoping that by putting it on three DVDs, they can have better quality audio and all that. Then again, wasn't there a stink with FF13? I don't even know if they have shown the 360 version because all the video is from the PS3 one.
It's weird because they have barely shown off any action. I can't tell if that's just because the main game has little action or something else. I'm hoping there are foot chases like in that old original trailer.

In general, I think a lot of games need to rely less on combat and enemies.AstroLad said:
It suits some games, but a lot of others would benefit from having a combat situation be so unique that it's really intense and challenging. It would be interesting to play and benefit the narratives.

I really hope this is what it's like. I'm kind of sick of R* games that has you play an everyman...who just happens to kill 1000s of people.

Anyone know what the level of customization is? Can you just switch full suits? Can I take off the hat if I want? Can I unbutton the jacket or change the colour of the tie?

I love that I'm having a conversation about less killing in games with a man who (I hope) took his username from 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand!Big Ass Ramp said:

Hahaha. Yeah, you're right about the origin of my name.
50 Cent is not an everyman, I fully expect him to kill hordes of people.

Me too.
Any chance they will apply Motionscan tech to ramps in this game? Next gen ramps!

I'm guessing it will be like RDR. So just switch between preset costumes. No micromanagement of ties, shoes, etc.

Great OT!
Have had it pre-order for a few months now, and due to some sales by futureshop, I'm getting a 360 copy for 33$!

So the Gamestop preorder DLC for this: on your pre-order receipt or on one of those cards on release day? Anyone know? Don't think my receipt had one but it's been a really long time since they had the cards so I wasn't sure if I should go back to the store and have them print out a new one before they run out.
