AT 2:31 ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE... ON TOP OF THE FOUR STORY APARTMENT BLOCK... IT SAYS absolutely fireproof

[@kieranward8145]

Why do I find that so funny? Is it the irony? I think its the irony.

[@dusty2080]

I guess the explosion burned off the quotation marks.

[@stijnpeters-sengers8867]

LA Noire, in my opinion the game that has the best atmosphere ever.

[@arthurmorgan7642]

Yep. I also like Mafia 2.

[@gferrol118]

Nah the one with the best atmosphere is any space game!

[@Kardia_of_Rhodes]

Fedoras, snazzy suits, and 50's diners... This time in history interests me so much, mostly the 50's

[@kratosdescendantgamingchan408]

Play Mafia 2. Great atmosphere, clothes, and music. Lots of swearing and an abrupt ending hold it back in my opinion.

[@buppabuppababuppabuppa]

Its in the 40's.

[@kratosdescendantgamingchan408]

40's and 50's

[@JelliThePilot]

Kratos, i actually own Mafia 2. And you're right, it is a great game. I just wish the main story had more freedom.

Doing things I would accomplish normally isn't an achievement. Achievements should be bastard hard goals for the insane individuals amongst us. I don't want "find 5 cars" I want "finish the game in 5 minutes, while blindfolded and drunk."

[@suspectsn0thing]

This is how fedoras were meant to be worn!

[@TerynCate]

With snazzy suits and guns.

[@1000015927]

i love this game because it is unique and not many other games have the atmosphere this one does.

[@GlitchTheF0x]

23:30 Obviously you don't know anything about aircrafts. That is not a window. That is a door.

[@TerynCate]

if you took a window and opened it that is considdered a door, you can go in and out of it

[@GlitchTheF0x]

teryn cate Windows in aircrafts are tiny. for a reason.

[@Ignonym]

606catgirl606 Not all windows are doors, but all doors also function as windows. (Just not in flight.)

[@liamsargo2277]

606catgirl606 what qualifies as a window? does cockpit glass count?

[@crazehcakes]

liam sargo well usually you can't see shit out of the cockpit windshield.

[@howtoguro]

I want to like this game, but they are absolutely brutal to their employees. They made a shell company to create this game, and then they fired everybody. Sadly, it's a good game.

[@howtoguro]

James Cook Fine The house that built L.A. Noire may soon be shuttered for good, as the Sydney developer Team Bondi has officially entered administration. Filed with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission yesterday, the drastic action has left the studio with the unenviable task of attracting a (very) last minute buyer, or else be picked apart to death in order to pay its creditors. Team Bondi has been battling allegations of employee mistreatmentfor months now, culminating in its unamicable split with Rockstar, and the slow but steady liquidation of its assets. It was rumoured KMM, the film studio behind Mad Max and Happy Feet, was stepping in to save the embattled studio with purchase of undisclosed assets, however the details of said dealings have not been made clear. KMM has, however, made a new home for a number of Team Bondi employees, including former studio head Brendan McNamara. (www.gamesradar.com/la-noire-studio-brink-bankruptcy/) TLDR; Basically exactly what I already said, but cleaned up to avoid libel.

[@SCWIC]

That isn't true y'know....

[@howtoguro]

SCWIC What's your proof for that?

[@davidbonilla2014]

they made this game and then closed down because they spent almost all of there money on the motion sensors causing them to become bankrupt shortly after the games release.

[@TheVideoGameRemixes]

julian garcia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Team_Bondi

[@theskygod4522]

They should remaster this game

[@redpractition]

This game is a remastered version.

[@JoeWuhPuh]

It would be nice to have a sequel that contained this one as a remaster as well as a new storyline

[@officialdinodoestuff]

[@theryanjester7209]

One thing I will say is that after completing the game it has some of the best in-game musice I've heard

*BOOOOM* Partner - "What was that?" Cole - "Explosion." that part makes me laugh each time

[@ImOdinsBoss]

23:55 wouldn't it have made sense to check the weapon to see if there was a bullet missing? (Long shot but would have been substantial evidence.)

[@jsegaul420]

The gun had nothing to do with it. It was an explosion not a shoutout. He would have been charged with fraud not murder.

[@ImOdinsBoss]

Dude... someone was shot in the head... an explosion will probably not make a gunshot wound.

[@ImOdinsBoss]

Yes, quite likely actually. IF he was outside his home when he was shot. (I feel like we're detectives right now XD)

[@jsegaul420]

ImOdinsBoss Someone was shot in the head yes, but they were instigating the explosion at the time they found the gun. And plus, its the 40s for gods sake. you could go walking around a damn intersection with over 150 pounds of armor and weaponry and no one would care. finding a pistol is not enough evidence to support he killed him. And the gunshot wound wasn't in the head I don't think.

unfortunately due to its weight and material used to build it it only flew for about a KM or less and doing so badly damaged the air frame

[@blondepotatoboi]

EVAregard - I'd imagine the facial animations and general detail would make this chug like a bitch on PC. Did it on the PS3 version too, I think.

[@Rueee]

No, the game is frame locked in order to allow the facial animations to work properly.

the facial expressions if they are lying or doubtful the wont look you in the eye the will ,look around the room or hesitate in their speach

At 24:54 he goes from saying "Carol" to "Cow Roll" pretty quickly.

[@TediBare123]

Seamus often plays a single game in a series lasting up to a hundred episodes, while Dan usually only plays each game once, so they're not very comparable.

[@xXWhiteShadow1Xx]

The expression "in a nutshell" (of a story, proof, etc.) means "in essence", metaphorically alluding to the fact that the essence of the nut - its edible part - is contained inside its shell. The expression further gave rise to the journalistic term nut graph, short for nutshell paragraph

[@Muaddweeb02]

Everyone is called John Doe because that is the go-to name for an unidentified male corpse/hospital patient.

[@crittermoded]

This would be super cool if there came a sequal in modern time. I think this might be the only good detective game where you actually have to do some deducting and stuff.

[@hellkillah234]

I always paid attention to EVERY detail, like Sherlock Holmes, but instead of progressing the case, I just spend two days studying a random bottle.

[@wookie9294]

Cole in really awesome voice: Good day, Miss. Dan: Morniiiing!

[@Crbn46]

the mouth animations are done with a special software where soomebody sits and talks and then it gets filmed and it just gets glued into the game

[@Ignonym]

Actually, it's motion-capture. Not quite the same as filming an actual face, but close enough.

[@Crbn46]

yea i wasnt sure but thats what i heard at least

[@nikolaibellic6371]

btw idk if anyone has said this already, but ohn doe is used to describe an unknown identity, thats probably why the name comes up so much in the game.

[@TheGameFilmGuruMan]

Actually got to visit the Spruce Goose, once. It's a huge plane. I think Dan's seen more of the interior than I have though. They don't let you up the ladders at the museum.

[@actual_jay8604]

[@GretchenDawntreader]

Radiation-In physics, radiation is a process in which electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum or through matter-containing media; the existence of a medium to propagate the waves is not required.

As the owner of several hats collected from around the country, all of them fedoras (don't you dare call them a trilby or I will hurt you), I can say, that you most definitely should want to be a hat owner. I just want to own more hats... I want a top hat. Hold on, Ill be right back.
