Nice job Sony….WTF?

October 8th, 2008

So, Im hearing Sony is dropping or has officially dropped funding for L. A. Noire. Now, Im going to have to get a 360? Pfft. After all Ive invested into the Wii and PS3, I am not looking forward to purchasing another console. Especially one with the 360s track record….

Done with school, need a job?

L.A. Noire is a new and upcoming video game by developer Team Bondi and publisher Rockstar Games for PlayStation 3.

This is going to be an excellent detective style game set in the 1940s.  It uses an old black and white movie style known as Film Noir.

In my opinion this game is going to surpass the success of the Grand Theft Auto franchise!
