Rockstar's L.A. Noire listed for PS3 only in T2 report

Those interested in gunning down finely-dressed gentlemen in dark, 1940's Los Angeles alleyways need to plan their future investments wisely. Between the cost of building a time machine and that of acquiring a PlayStation 3, we'd advise you to go with the latter -- it's considerably cheaper and won't run the risk of demolishing our current timeline. A recent Take-Two investor report confirms what many have suspected since Rockstar's L.A. Noire was first revealed, listing the game as a PS3 exclusive -- at least as far as the 2008 fiscal year is concerned.

I don't really see why an article was made of this, seeing as it was announced as such a while ago, before that report.

BitbyDeath6162d ago

yeah, i agree.

This is old news

TruthHurts6162d ago

i`m hype to see how this ends up, from how it sounds its a welcome change to the sandbox genre.

off topic: whatever happened to the "Rockstar Old West Ps3 Project" i haven`t heard anything about that in a while.

Rybnik6161d ago

You mean Red Dead Revolver 2? Yeah, don't now, IGN still says 2007..

Lord Anubis6162d ago

Eh, haven't really read anything about the game so I'll reserve my judgment on the game.

Xi6162d ago

360 only, my guess both are timed exclusives.

LeonSKennedy4Life6162d ago

You know about GTA5??? I heard it wasn't coming out until at least 2010!!!

Just messin' with ya dude...yeah GTA4 episodic content, it's listed as 360 only. I'm just wondering if the PS3 version already has that content in it, because of the Blu-ray disc. We'll find out though...either way, it'll be a great game.

Diselage6161d ago

I would agree with the timed exclusives, really doesn't make sense to have content laying around and not port it over to one side or the other when it's cheap in comparison to potential profit.

Kleptic6162d ago

this is the first I have even heard of this game...

I was always thinking a GTA based in chicago during the prohibtion, with capone and rum runners, would be really cool...this seems close enough...

and yeah, at one point there were reports of both the ps3 and 360 getting their own exlusive content for download...but for now, only the 360's is official...this GTA is going to have to be drastically different than the first thre GTA IIIs for me to even be interested anyway...it was awesome in 2001...its going to need more than a more realistic city to make me want it again...Vice City and San Andreas just seemed to similar to GTA III for me to even finish playing them...but the LA Noire thing, that is a welcome change...

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.

Demetrius19d ago

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

Demetrius19d 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 🔥

Skuletor19d ago

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

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

Knightofelemia124d 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 😂

RhinoGamer88125d ago

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

sagapo125d 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_Z125d 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.

1nsomniac125d ago (Edited 125d 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 .
