L.A. Noire Coming to PC

[DaJoW]

"will be perfect to play on PC." Odd to not release a game perfect to play on a PC for the PC right away.

This is good news. Gives me hope that they may eventually bring out RDR for PC too.

 

[DSK-]

This is probably the only thing that has piqued my interest about the game!

*Puts police tape across the gaping hole in Rockstar's logic*

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Lovely news, but WaaghPowa is most likely right.

 

[Gennadios]

I'm predicting that it will come bundled in with Steam, Impulse, Games For Windows: LIVE, Rockstar Social Club, SecuROM, and a 60 page encoded booklet with a decoder ring that has to be used in-between chapters.

Very awesome news indeed, this is one of the games I really wanted to play through! However, Andy's last sentence set off a few red lights:

Now if we could just get things moving on Red Dead Redemption...

See, I can't help but feel a little insulted by Rockstar. RDR does fine financially, so fuck PC gaming. But poor sales of LA Noire and here comes a PC version? Alone it feels like a bit of an insult - if it ends up a shitty port, I will honestly add Rockstar to my "punch if you ever get to meet them" list of developers.

 

[RA92]

Does this have something to do with the fact LA Noire didn't sell as well on the consoles as they had hoped?

Here's a classic evidence that the case of games going multiplatform (to recoup high development costs) isn't just a mater of PC titles getting console versions but vice versa as well.

Just look at Sega and Capcom.

 

[Ekonk]

Lol, what?

...You know what, never mind. At least there is one game coming out of the closet.

But... But...

I do not have vibration in my mouse or keyboard! How am I going to find the clues?!

There are dildos that can connect to the PC via USB ^^

Spoiler: First reaction

Second reaction: Why is this relevant?

Third reaction: Do some quick browsing on the subject. Orders 100 of them solely for trolling purposes.

Well you could stick one up your butt and when you search for clues it vibrates.

Unprecedented in gaming! I'll have ten!

Day one buy... So long as it isn't as half arsed as the GTA IV port.

That said, I have a pretty monster PC, so I can probably run it anyways. Colour me excited!

 

[Lukeje]

Awesome. Now if only a few of the other adventure game console exclusives would come to PC (I'm still waiting on Heavy Rain...).

 

[sir.rutthed]

And now I can buy this game without buying it for Xbox. Yay!

Same here. I was gonna buy my roomie's xbox just for this, but now I don't have to! And it'll probably have all the DLC when it comes out too!
/dances a jigg

 

[Fooz]

for fuck sake, i bought it for shitty xbox because i thought it wasnt coming to PC, they are such turd burglars

 

[bob-2000]

There is only one thought on my mind: YES!!!

 

[Waaghpowa]

And for the people asking "Why didn't they announce this before I bought the console version?" That's EXACTLY why Rockstar don't announce their PC versions of games usually until after the console version hits the shelves, so you'll buy the console version and the console manufacturers will get all that extra cash they get from games being sold for their systems and will encourage them to throw keep throwing money at Rockstar. That's what capitalists would call The Circle of Life if they weren't scared of Disney's lawyers.

And it's precisely why I wont buy it!

 

[Callate]

Um, okay, thanks, Rockstar. I hear good things about L.A. Noir; I'll be happy to be able to play it.

Now, I hear great things about Red Dead Redemption...

 

[johnnnny guitar]

It clearly because L.A. Noire Didn't sell as well as they hoped
