Kotaku just got some new info on LA Noire. A game that takes place in 1947 Los Angeles. Some new info are that the game will be completely free-roam and will be as accurate as it can to the setting. Team Bondi hired a costume designer to try and get accurate clothing style of the year. Side missions will be based on actual crimes. Also that the game is said to be way to big to fit on a DVD.

Team Bondi must have at least a few people working in their Ultimo, Sydney office, according to a tip we received over the weekend pointing us to a blog with "exclusive" information on the title. From the post:
  • The game will be a free-roaming title with a historically-accurate recreation of Los Angeles in 1947.
  • Team Bondi has even hired a costume designer to research the clothing of the era so the game's attire can be accurate.
  • Aside from main story, side missions will be based on actual cases pulled straight of the newspapers of 1947.
  • A US Marine plays a big role in the story.
  • Not so exclusive...but LA Noire definitely ain't coming to Xbox 360, the size of the game is an obstacle to this.

    Sucks for 360 Fans! I'll probably be getting a Playstation 3 anyhow.

    Uh, wasn't this already announced as exclusive ages ago, anyway?

    It probably doesn't fit, because it isn't compressed very much...

    But yeah, non-compressed game graphics look better neh?

    It seems interesting... 1947 Los Angeles!

    "Not so exclusive...but LA Noire definitely ain't coming to Xbox 360, the size of the game is an obstacle to this." No hope to the Wii then!

    It will be on the PS3 and PC most probably... Though like most Rockstar produced/published games it will be on the PC at a later date.

    Another random free-roaming game. Saint's Row is more than enough for 360 right now anyway.

    Free-roaming is just getting to be a dead genre, stale games constantly come out from everyone but Rockstar thanks to GTA.

    Woo, I'm interested. A recreation of Los Angeles 1947, and actual cases being pulled out of actual newspapers, and clothes people researching clothes. I'm intrigued. Can't wait to see further information on this =].
