In February 2004, Brendan McNamara, Team Bondi's president, responded to an interview with Kristen Reed that "the project is wholly funded by Sony Computer Entertainment America. We have a long-term exclusive arrangement with SCEA."[3] On 11 June 2007, Take-Two Interactive, the sole publisher of Rockstar Games, re-confirmed the release of the PlayStation 3 version by listing it amongst its "announced to date" titles for "fiscal 2008" in a press release regarding the company's second quarter financial results.[4]
However, during the shareholders conference-call, a spokesperson for Take Two implied that both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 releases are likely and that "LA Noire is being developed for next-generation systems."[5] However L.A. Noire has only been officially announced for the PlayStation 3. On 10 September 2007, as part of their Q3 2007 financial disclosure, Take Two announced the game was delayed until their 2009 fiscal year.[6] On January 21 2010, Rockstar - on their blog - said in response to a question "There will be something great to see soon - a proper-indepth look at the game and why it is so ground breaking and innovative, both in terms of the game's design and the amazing new technology to support it. Expect to see a long-awaited reveal via a big cover story next month." .[7]
