L.A. Noire May Recieve Completely New DLC

Kotaku - There is a new L.A. Noire mystery: what comes next for the hit detective game? Something... but its creators won't say what just yet.

DankJemo4672d ago

This doesn't seem like a bad thing does it? I mean. I know a lot of people spent 60 bucks on the game just recently, but the reviews seemed to be overwhelmingly positive. Why not milk that cash cow a bit more?

trainsinrdr4672d ago (Edited 4672d ago )

How is this not a bad thing?
They already screwed over all the people who pre-ordered the free dlc by making a rockstar pass and now they will probably screw over all the people who bought the rockstar pass by making some GOTY or complete edition...
Im so f*cking sick of this dlc milking bullshit.
F*ck you team bondi.

despair4672d ago

how did the preorder people get screwed, did you not receive the dlc? What's wrong with giving everyone a chance to get it...at a price.Also the rockstar pass is 10 bucks and the dlc adds up to more than that if taken individually.

Would you rather no pass and you pay for each one, or a more expensive pass to get more but a longer wait between them for the new ones?

No one said you had to buy the dlc so why are you angry, if you enjoyed the game as is then what's the problem, but if you wanted more then there's that option as well, again, for a price.

Gordo7894672d ago

Wow they're really getting some mileage out of this stuff. I sort of want to play LA Noire, but am still somewhat burnt out by the open world jank from RDR.

GodsHand4672d ago

This open world is nothing like GTA, or RDR, and I don't mean that in a good way. While the game is something new, it lacks a lot of the qualities from GTA, or RDR.

despair4671d ago

Its definitely not the greatest game in the world, I see it as a few unrealised great gameplay ideas and mechanics. The problem is that the open world is not really useful other than side stuff and the occasional chase/getaway sequence. They needed to focus more on refining the game's detective mechanics and less on crafting an open world that isn't truly like an open world.

If there is a L.A. Noire 2 or something like it then hopefully they will fix it, it had amazing potential but they didn't fully live up to it. Once you realise that you will still enjoy the game, but if you expect too much it will let you down badly like a lot of people found out.

Bay4672d ago

So, the game shipped unfinished, basically. Then they charge you for the parts that should've been in the game. Sounds like a lot of games nowadays...

NicSage4672d ago

100% Agree. I will no longer buy any game new, unless it's a multi-player game.

Takoulya4672d ago

WTF? So games that can last you 50+ hours like Oblivion shouldn't be bought new because they have no multiplayer? How about Mass Effect 2?

NicSage4671d ago

I meant to add " new day one " because the price of single player games drop dramatically in such a short time.. also we have to look at goty editions.

There is no reason to buy a game new day one. Unless you just want it that bad but I can wait.

Solid_Malone4671d ago

Nikrel has a good point, singleplayer games tend to become cheaper faster than multiplayer focused games.

GodsHand4672d ago

I bought the game for $40, and purchased the $10 rockstar pass. I don't plan on every playing this game again, after the intital play through, other then getting the trophies. It just did not have the same wow factor such as GTA, or RDR.

Gordo7894670d ago

They shipped the game they shipped. They're not charging anybody for anything, they're giving you an opportunity to purchase something from them IF YOU WANT IT. There's a difference.

junk3d4672d ago

As long as its good...although, out of context, saying that the game is not complete yet doesn't sound too good.

Kakihara4672d ago

This game is such a dark omen for the future of the industry. A game that just gives you the illusion that you're actually doing something other than driving from checkpoint to checkpoint that also happens to be missing a chunk they want to charge you extra for. This game is a worse sign of the money grubbing casualisation of games than CoD and what's worse, it's heralded as some deep mature hardcore gamer's game.

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."

Skuletor20d 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.

Psychonaut8520d ago

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

Demetrius20d ago

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

Demetrius20d 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 🔥

Skuletor20d 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

Knightofelemia125d 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.

andy85125d ago

Baffles me when people have these opinions about acclaimed games 😂

RhinoGamer88126d ago

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

sagapo126d 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_Z126d 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.

1nsomniac126d ago (Edited 126d 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.

SyntheticForm125d ago

Team Bondi made a hell of a game.

Historically accurate from the past is tough to truly know and judge especially the farther you go back because history is written from the people in power and doesn’t mean it’s the truth just the narrative they wanted to tell.

I don’t care about historically accurate in most games because they are games not biographies or history books . Just make the game fun , good gameplay and such .

Ghost of Tsushima wasn’t historically accurate in many things but I loved the game . Many examples like it .
