It is hard to explain, but from some angles they look amazing...from others they looked fake...and like that asshole that made Heavy Rain said, the disconnect between the face and the rest of the body brought you out of the realism..sort of like seeing a hot 55 year old woman, who has had a face lift, and you scan down and see her old throat or old lady hands..... The dead bodies when I moved their faces around stunned me....then a cop will walk up to you and talk and his face obviously had less horsepower behind the mask than others.... |

6.5 is the lowest a game can get.

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
I finished it just now. I liked
Spoiler:
I am assuming that the Spoiler:
Oh and I found one badge, and didn't find a single film roll. I found about 84 cars and all 13 newspapers. I didn't find all the landmarks either. I think I am going to get rid of this and buy it again when it's cheap or there's a GOTY version with some more DLC. It was a good ride. |
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
The "Rock Star" pass is now available. Basically, it includes all the pre-order bonuses for 800 points (and whatever the PSN equivalent is). So, depending on where you got it there's probably at least one new case available right now, and two more you'll get down the line. Details:
The L.A. Noire Rockstar Pass includes all the following: The Broderick Detective Suit, The Sharpshooter Detective Suit, The Badge Pursuit Challenge & Button Man Suit, "The Naked City" Vice Case, "A Slip Of The Tongue" Traffic Case, "Nicholson Electroplating" Arson Case and "Reefer Madness" Vice Case. Individual items will become available to download when released. 360 Link: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...b-d5f5917c3a93 |
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
If that really does include those four cases for 800 points, I'mma be extra pissed that I redeemed my second Nicholson Electroplating case instead of dumping it on eBay for another $25.
Although, I could always sell or gift (:lol:) the code that R* gives me on 6/21. |

It'll be like they totally scammed you!
Actually, once that first one sold for $25, I was already mad at myself because I was sure it wasn't going to be more than $10 for the case. I wasn't expecting < $2.50 :lol: |
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
I should have sold my Magic Suit™ on ebay. I'm knocking 0.149583 stars off my review.

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Don't forget that today only the Chicago Gun is free: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...f-9051f12d1de0

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Cool. I always wondered why there was an option to "Choose Gun with L" but it only gave me one gun. Guess the additional gun(s) are DLC.

But hey..you gave it a solid 7 despite feeling like it scammed you and is shitty. That's some scale! ;) The 7 is because it does deserve a decent rating for what it tried to be....it just didn't execute very well at all. |

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
this seems like a nice deal..especially for me since my only pre-order bonus was clothes. This should be around 5 hours of game for 10 bucks...and many dlcs out today give you far less for that....
Kind of a neat way to slow down used game sales...pre-selling the dlc that is not coming out for 2 months...I wonder how well it will work because the market is already getting hammered with used copies... |
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Note that the price jumps on 6/14 (to 1200 points I believe).
|
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
I'm waiting until tomorrow (6/1) to see if the 5% rewards rebate returns.

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
I finished the main story.
Who the F wrote this? Roger Ebert? ;) |

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Someone who's up for it should play the new cases that are out today (on 360) and let us know how long they are :)
