Fresh off the consoles, the latest Rockstar game is coming to the PC.
L.A. Noire is the latest epic title to come out of Rockstar. While L.A. Noire is actually the product of Australian studio Team Bondi, it shares many of the same characteristics that make it fit right in amongst the rest of Rockstar's open world games.
Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 gamers got their L.A. Noire delivery in May, and now it's confirmed that the game will be headed to PC this fall. Rejoice, PC gamers!
Rockstar said in a statement:
Developed by Rockstar Leeds and built to run on a wide range of PCs, L.A. Noire's robust feature customization includes keyboard remapping and gamepad functionality to both optimize and customize performance and user experience. Along with increased fidelity and improved graphical enhancements, the PC version will also feature 3D support for an even greater sense of interaction and immersion within a painstakingly detailed 1940s Los Angeles.
Now with L.A. Noire PC-bound, Rockstar fans can refocus their complete attention on hoping for a PC version of the most excellent Red Dead Redemption.
I'm just going to wait for the reviews. You got to be careful now days before you buy any game, especially PC games now.

I agree. if it was ment for PC they would of made an announcement for PC at the same time, but i never really heard any news till now. I pridict that it will go the same way as other ports. It will piss off a bunch of PC users, will still not be able to take full advantage of the PC be it bad code or sucky cut and paste libraries, and will look like it belongs on a consol and not a PC.
As a result it looks like they it is destined for a half-baked job based on the expectancy that sales will be low.
Battlefield 3 mate

iv never had a pc struggle with it, then again i was amongst the crowd that bought quads when duals were king (Q6600), when people were trying to tell me quads will never be good for gaming or whatever HA

I already beat LA Noire on PS3, probably won't bother getting it for PC since it doesn't have the same fun factor that GTA has (running around blowing stuff up, screwing around, etc.). LA Noire has a good story and unique gameplay, but it gets too repetitive and, once you get to the end, you realize that all the interrogations you did and arrests you made were all completely pointless. It would've been nice if the story weren't so linear.
That's sarcasm, right? Because everyone knows Tom's is always last when it comes to news.
I've stopped caring for Rockstar. If I'm a definite second class citizen in their eyes then my money will not go to them. Instead I'll happily pay several times a DICE or ID software game.
Thought they had given up on us PC gamers.
Still waiting for Red Dead Redemption....
