Day 1 purchase for me. Not much Rockstar have done that I haven't liked.

Just watched the video, wow!!!!

This is gonna be great, just the fact that the detailing is so good you can tell if they're lying or not through their facial expressions is really good. I'd say I'm a good judge of peoples demeanor so I should be like columbo on this game lol.

 

[McBain]

This looks incredible!

 

[TriedandTested]

Just hope the clue solving isn't too easy and actually requires some thought.

 

[redrooster303]

There will be a lot of different parts to solving one crime, for instance you won't be able to solve it with just knowuing if a person is lying you'll need to do all kinds of things/challenges in game and then bring them all together to work out the bigger picture, just like a real detective. Like you say though I hope its not too obvious and I hope they have difficulty levels for the crimes/puzzles and not just the combat.

Can't wait for this! Looks amazing.

Day 1 purchase for me. Not much Rockstar have done that I haven't liked.

I'd like to point out that it's not actually made by Rockstar, they're just publishing it. It's being developed by Team Bondi of Australia. Credit where credit's due and all that

Rockstar's L.A. Noire will be released with a plethora of retailer-specific pre-order bonuses. GameStop, however, may be offering the most compelling one of them all: "The Naked City" DLC has you investigating the apparent suicide of a fashion model, but in typical noir fashion, nothing is as it seems.

While initially a GameStop pre-order exclusive, The Naked City bonus "vice case" will be available for digital purchase after the game's release. "All of the L.A. Noire pre-order content will be made available for purchase as DLC at some point after the game comes out," a Rockstar representative confirmed. "We have long planned to do this for all digital pre-order items."

Can't embed the trailer itself so you'll have to go to the link to see it

Haven't checked out any of the pre-order bonuses yet for this game but I would imagine one of our stores will have this as well

 

[nemtizz]

Guaranteed to be awesome! I think this is the only game I'm looking forward to this year (apart from the yearly Call of Duty of course)

 

[Tom84]

Just checked and the purple place are doing the Naked City DLC pre order bonus

EDIT: The jersey lot are doing it with a different DLC Titled A Slip of the Tounge....

 

[manbearpig]

Wow this looks cool.

 

[Tom84]

I just watched the new gameplay trailer (can't link it as I'm on the iPad) and this looks like it just about tops Just about every single game made before it. The facial detail is just on another planet to what I've seen previously.

May is gonna take forever to arrive

 

[Simi]

Added the newest gameplay video. Still looking awesome.
