Rockstar has today launched a new trailer for L.A. Noire, “Rise Through the Ranks.” This video gives you a solid slice of gameplay and explains how you can solve and re-solve cases to earn intuition points as you graduate from traffic cop to homicide detective.
This is the first L.A. Noire trailer where I’ve been slapped in the face by the graphics. I love how the use of color makes everything pop, and you really can’t deny that the facial animation is good stuff. The gameplay looks really tight, too. I’m looking forward to seeing how Rockstar lets us enjoy an open city on the right side of the law.
In other words … this game is looking set to make me spunk like mad out of my greasy little peanut. They can put that on the box.
