Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

it's not lipsyncing an animation though. It's 30 cameras that capture video and it gets rendered into a 3d character. The audio is recorded simultaneously with the video so there is no need to try to sync lips with voice. If you've seen the G. I. Pics then you know that no animator could make faces like these.

thanks.. yea there was a ton of info and I read most of it yesterday but no chance to post details.. thanks

Screens

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

Just looked at the screens. There's one where a guy with a gun (i'm guessing our character) is entering a room and it's sunny so the blinds give off some light. Really neat stuff but the screen you posted is probably the best.

I'm REALLY looking forward to this.

I kind of hope there is an option to play this game in black and white.

They say the crimes are based on real crimes that happened in that era. I wonder if the Black Dahlia case or something similar will be included? That would be pretty cool.

Rockstar is gonna be getting my money this year. THis and Red Dead Redemption sound awesome, can't wait.

If it is, they said that names and other important information has been changed to protect the victims and their families.

In other words, you could probably speculate that a crime is based on the Black Dahlia case, but enough will have changed that it'll be difficult for someone to say Rockstar was bringing up a real case.

Yeah, I understand that, but it would definitely be cool to have in the game, the ultimate whodunit.

I like a game with ambition. Sounds like they're trying to become the Avatar of gaming. I just hope that, unlike Avatar, they include a story inside all this ambition.

well it's going to be a nice year for Take Two/Rockstar...

Bioshock 2, Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3, Mafia II, LA Noire, and maybe Agent.

I love how they think out of the box.

Awesome trailer. I love the use of lights and shadows. Hopefully that use of light and shadows persists when you're actually playing.

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

That trailer is REALLY old. I remember watching it at least 2 years ago.

Re: L.A. Noire (PS3/360)

I've really been craving a game that's as large and deep as San Andreas, so maybe this will be the one. I love GTA IV for its incredible graphics and revolutionary physics, but it doesn't offer half as much as San Andreas did.
