Just read about this in my PS2 Mag, checked out the trailer. Looks like it might be a winner, first genuine PS3 game that has got me slightly interested. The guy in charge of this project, was in charge of The Getaway...and i love cinematic games like that. Controls were annoying though. Being published by Rockstar as well, they wouldn't buy the rights for it, if it wasn't at least looking good. Anyway this looks good, PS3 exclusive me thinks as well. Website, with the trailer Quote: Rockstar Games is pleased to announce a partnership with Team Bondi Pty Ltd to publish the ground-breaking next generation crime thriller L.A. Noire. Developed by Team Bondi, a new Australian based studio founded by Brendan McNamara, of The Getaway, L.A Noire is an interactive detective story set in the classic noir period of the late 1940’s. L.A. Noire blends action, detection and complex storytelling and draws players into an open-ended challenge to solve a series of gruesome murders. Set in a perfectly recreated Los Angeles before freeways, with a post-war backdrop of corruption, drugs and jazz, L.A. Noire will truly blend cinema and gaming.

Hard to tell how good the game will actually be when they're only showing a cinematic sequence and no in game piccys. Certainly keep ma eye on it...that is until it turns out to be another GTA clone

Looks like Sin City in style, which certainly isn't a bad thing. Hopfuly der is ali3ns to shooots tho. LOL

It has now been pushed back to a release at some point in 2009. A bit of information about the game: "L.A. Noire, published by Rockstar and developed by Team Bondi, including founders involved with The Getaway, was first announced the summer of 2005 for a release on the PS3, part of a 3 deal agreement to develop multiple Sony-exclusive titles by Team Bondi. The game itself is set in an open-ended, post-war recreation of Los Angeles, where players must solve various murder cases in a city plagued with drugs and corruption."

I realise that in games such as Mafia II and LA Noire they're trying to achieve a certain realism and cinamatic scope, but I don't expect that from a GTA game. I want laughs, freedom, tons of choice and a rags to riches story. So imagine my disappointment on getting GTA IV home and finding nothing but a pretentious turd, which tells a story of some Eastern European who goes from being a weak annoying tramp to, yes, a weak annoying tramp. You can't tell me you're excited about the GTA IV DLC because it's going to tell and intresting immersive story and not because it has parachutes, cargo heli's and MASH style attack helicopters.
