All of that there with technology is something that's nice for bulletpoints, but if they want people to get excited, they need to release gameplay

Indeed, I want to see the gameplay as well.  The game releases is September so it probably won't be too long before we begin to see some gameplay.  Hopefully we don't have to wait all the way to E3 to see a gameplay trailer.  I am excited about the technology too though.  I don't think Rockstar will let us down with the gameplay-- they are a company with very few flops. 

Exactly. I'm into the tech as well, and I'm excited to see it, but I have a hard time being all that excited until I see it in action, or read a preview, or... something!

There'll be jazz clubs in L.A. Noire?  Son of a bitch, that's sweet.

I'm not as keen on the in-game theatres, though.  I'll just have to see how that works out.

Actually, I don't know that there will be jazz clubs in LA Noire.  But how could there not be, realistically?  Rockstar has always incorporated a great deal of music into their games-- and they said this game was a near replica of 1940s LA.  I don't think they could make this game without incorporating something of early Hollywood and of the early music recording biz in L.A.-- including the big bands and jazz bands. 

I read the Game Informer article. It looks good and it has some impressive technology behind it but I'm tired of sanbox games. Plus, the 1940's? Who can relate to that?

i remember being hyped for this game 2 years ago when they Team Bondi said they were in the finishing stages, a lot of time went by with no info
however, I still can't wait for this game and Red Dead Redemption, Agent, and Max Payne 3

People should be talking about Red Dead Redemption... the more I hear about that game the more I want to play it.

For me its my number one most anticipated game.

L.A. Noire might be too but there's a lot of unknowns about it. I generally like film noirish atmospheres and stories.

LOL... Judging by the previous success of WWII games, I think a lot of gamers will be right at home in the 1940s.

What is there to talk about? For the life of me I tried to make this genre relevant again, I even screened Chinatown! Red Dead Redemption is what I will buy sonna bitch!
