Most gamers will have high hopes running with L.A.Noire, the new Rockstar epic. The first review was in courtesy of the Guardian.co.uk and has since been removed due to the embargo. However if you go over to Metacritic, the summary and score is still there, which incidentally happens to be the perfect score of 100/100 on the Playstation 3.
“Ever since it first worked out how to assemble pixels so that they resembled something more recognisable than aliens, the games industry has dreamed of creating one thing above all else – a game that is indistinguishable from a film, except that you can control the lead character. With LA Noire, it just might, finally, have found the embodiment of that particular holy grail.” – Guardian
A perfect score is always difficult for me to digest, but from what we’ve seen it could very well be a ‘perfect game‘, ‘master piece’ [thanks Neo-Geo]. Even if the reviewer got a little carried away, this still must be a snippet of things to come.
L.A. Noire will be available on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 and releases locally on 20th May.
