Chances for LA Noire 2 are low, but changes for a spiritual successor are high or at the very least, elements of it incorporated into R*'s other games (though they should just release GTA V before we all forget about the franchise)


This is what I'm thinking.  I'm hoping that maybe Rockstar incorporates all the good things from their games this gen into the inevitable GTAV.  Here's hoping for Vice City 2 using LA Noires face technology and some sort of Dead Eye gameplay mechanic. 

Oh god that would awesome.

Well I have mixed feelings about that. Atm, R* are going the down a route of all their games becoming more realistic and cinematic. I, however, want GTA to retain some of silliness, not on a Saints Row level, but back to the PS2 games and I am not sure that incorporating the LA Noire tech would actually be that useful.

The issue with the technology is that it only works for the face, so further work has to be done on the rest of the body, making the end result less than perfect. So it works really well for the interviews, but for many other things it falls flat when compared to something like the motion capture in Uncharted. So if interogation is not a central gameplay mechanic, I fear a lot will be lost.

Also, I did like the way that LA Noire was drastically different to any other game, to such an extent that I can play it with my girlfriend, as it is interesting to watch being played as well as playing yourself

 

However, I am not convinced R* will actually release another distinct detective game, and it might just be in GTA V, and there are interogation sections perhaps?.... But as far as I can see, all they can really use for their other releases is the tech, not really the gameplay
