L.A.Noire in "final production phase"?

The Team Bondi site has been dead since 2006 when the trailers for L.A.Noire were first aired, until 2 months ago when this was posted:

"We're looking to expand our Animation Team to cope with the final production phase of L.A. Noire. "

Clearly the game, although claimed vapourware by Take Two at their E3 press conference last week is well on it's way to being finished.

So it this game exclusive or what? Is it coming out for both platform or just sony's ps3?

beast5768d ago

Next Generation ConsoleS... as in plural. So i am pretty sure multi

Real gamer 4 life5768d ago

Anyone know why sony stop funding this project?

NO_PUDding5768d ago

The is reason for confusion becuase Take Two stated it was exclusive, only last October.

And SCEA apparently funded the project.

But then the site says next-gen consoles.

So which is it? I would assume it's PS3 exclsuive, sicne Team Bondi, clearly haven't updated their site since it was created, and more to the point, if the Publisher (althoguh it is Rockstar, under Take Two) Take Two, is fine with it being exclsuive; the people interested in the money, then why it wouldn't be, I don't know.

Safest bet is to wait and see. Not many things are exclsuive these days.

Megaton5768d ago (Edited 5768d ago )

I think it's gonna be multi. Take Two has been vocal about the possibility, and Sony dropped funding awhile ago.

NO_PUDding5768d ago

Take Two have been quite the opposite. They have been vocal about it being exclusive, last June.

The last time this agme was mentioned, it was a press release that stated it was still exclusive. And it had been shifted back to fiscal '09.

Megaton5768d ago (Edited 5768d ago )

"The financial report also stated that fellow Take-Two title LA Noire is due out in fiscal 2008. The spokesperson suggested that both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 releases are likely, stating, 'LA Noire is being developed for next-generation systems.'"

http://www.gamesindustry.bi...

It's old, but most of the news on this title is.

NO_PUDding5768d ago

The article is in relation to to the report that says it's for the Playstation 3.

The Rockstar spokesperson is obviously quoting from Team Bondi's website, that hadn't been updated since 2004. This holds far less weight than an actual fiscal report. And it holds little credibility, since we still haven't seen the 360 exclsuive DLC, and GTAIV, did not come out in October.

The fact is, Team Bondi, consists solely of members from Sony's First party (ex-Team SOHO employees), and they were then bound in an exclsuive agreement, and ofcourse the project was funded by SCEA (originally, and possibly still). The were the team that created the original 'The Getaway'.

Dark vader5768d ago

Well we do know one thing, rockstart is going to develop a new franchise exclusive to the ps3. Its been confirm already.

beavis4play5768d ago

which is more than i can say for many of those people who put stories on this site.

Notice the plural in consoles?? Gonna be some fun pwnage to dish out.

What will be even better is when you finally get to ride the normal school bus, instead of the short bus you are relegated to.

Stupid fishhead - you should slap your mother for not using birth control all those years back and letting you spawn on this planet.

Seriously, who let you out of your cage numb nuts?

juuken5768d ago

...Didn't it occur to you that this may probably be the secret game Sony was talking about that's exclusive to the PS3? There's no real indication on whether it's coming to both consoles yet. Keep sucking on that piece of information Crab because you are one dumbass bot.

Silogon5768d ago (Edited 5768d ago )

Junken I'm sure it has occurred to many of us but the thing is you're probably one of the many livestock complaining about Fat princess right now so your words have no merit.

Be gone. I hear McDonald's is expanding their dollar menu for you.

Edit to MS. Berthafaye

Listen, Ham hock... We all know about you. all of us and if you have to "reckon" my comment didn't hurt you then I "reckon" it did. So we're back at square 1. you being a popsicle popper and me being right.

juuken5768d ago

I reckon that your insults had no effect on me whatsoever and you're a little f*cktard.

I actually laughed.

Now go suck on some Greenburg/Kim c*ck and let grownups talk here.

Thy silly twofaced moron.

jcfilth5768d ago

wow these xbots are really really desperate for some PS3 games.
Why don't they just buy a PS3??

eagle215768d ago

You sit around like beggars on the street "oooh please can we get a pretty PS3 game"... we just want to play b3yond like Sony fans.

Everytime you guys think you have won, tommorow's news comes and bites your ass.

"FFXIII on 360, not released in Japan"....FAIL. How do you win without the biggest market for the game? :)

GiantEnemyCrab5768d ago (Edited 5768d ago )

LOL @ Jerkstore. Did I hit a nerve you internet pusssy?
So I state facts about what is available for platforms and you throw out the insults. You and Juuken can get together and wipe each others tears. I guess I would insult your mom but we all know you were born a butt baby out of your daddies ass. Now go cry some more because LA Noire IS ON THE 360 BEOTCH! HAHAHAHAHAHA! <- that's me laughing in your face!

Not even going to reply to you Juuken I think you've been owned enough in this thread and I'm sure you are probably stuffing that cow hole of yours with McDonalds now you know about that dollar menu expansion.

@1.5: Desperate for PS3 games? No try you fishheads are desperate for games period. You've claimed this as some PS3 exclusive when what platforms the game would support have never been confirmed. It's been NEXT GEN CONSOLES for over a year.

@Siligon: "Listen Ham hock" ROFLMAO!!! That was a classic burn right there! +Bub

I love fishhead tears!! Cry some more you nuttjobs!

Le-mo5768d ago

L.A. Noire is exclusive to the Playstation 3. SCEA is funding the project.

Real gamer 4 life5768d ago

IzKyD13315768d ago

SCEA is NOT funding it anymore

L.A. Noire And Bully — Rockstar's Lost Gems That Deserve A Sequel As Much As GTA

Hanzala from eXputer: "I do appreciate GTA 6, Rockstar, but if I could trade it for a new L.A. Noire or a Bully game, I'd do so in a heartbeat."

Skuletor32d ago

How are they lost? You can get L.A. Noire on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch and Bully is on the PS5 and Xbox Series too.

Psychonaut8532d ago

I want a new Manhunt game. But that will never happen.

Demetrius32d ago

Mfs are too sensitive nowadays and would cry instead of being concerned bout real world problems

Demetrius32d ago

Whenever gta 6 launch we won't be getting another rockstar title for another 10 years lol but on the positive side they bou to come back n show how open world supposed to be done 🔥

Skuletor32d ago

I won't expect any singleplayer DLC like IV's The Lost & Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony after it launches either

12 Years Later, L.A. Noire is Still an Excellent Experience

There was a lot to love about Rockstar and Team Bondi's 2011 open world title.

One I never finished. I've been looking at the ps4 version off Amazon the last few months just never bit

Knightofelemia137d ago

It's worth playing LA Noire is one of my favorite Rockstar games. But I would also check out pawnshops or thrift stores if you want the game dirt cheap. Someone may have been dumb enough to dump the game.

andy85137d ago

Baffles me when people have these opinions about acclaimed games 😂

RhinoGamer88138d ago

100% agree... not perfect, but an engaging/refreshing experience.

sagapo138d ago

Agree, at time of release those facial expressions were amazing! They still hold strong even today imo.
The game on its own was good. Something fresh, but sidequests were a bit meh after a while.

Nacho_Z138d ago

I picked it up on sale recently, going to play it next summer. I'll get more out of it this time, first time around I treated the open world like it was GTA and goofed about, whereas now I'll play it with more respect. RDR2 has trained me well.

I also hadn't read Raymond Chandler at the time so presumably that'll add another layer of enjoyment too.

1nsomniac138d ago (Edited 138d ago )

Absolutely stunning game. So underrated. Played through it again last year and it still stands up so well. Like many of rockstars games it’s actually a far better experience on PC. I didn’t enjoy it as much on console. Completed it at least 3 times on pc.

The rumours of a sequel are awesome news despite the fact I think Rockstar are now the shell of the company they once were.

SyntheticForm137d ago

Team Bondi made a hell of a game.
