Last week, the CEO of Tantalus and el presidente of the Game Developers' Association of Australia, Tom Crago made a few rumor waves in regards to Rockstar's long awaited, mysterious and PS3 exclusive L.A. Noire, saying that it'll also be making its way to the Xbox 360.
While chatting with Crago at GC Asia 2008, IGN reports that Crago mentioned that L.A. Noire was currently in development on both the PS3 and 360. Something that'd be very surprising seeing that Rockstar has said all along that L.A. Noire will be a PS3 exclusive and was partially being funded by Sony. But maybe the game's costs caught up with them?
And unless Rockstar directly addresses the game's rumored 360 release, we probably won't know the answer for quite the long time, because Crago suggested that L.A. Noire still has another year to cook in the development oven. Bum to that.

This isn't the title that Rockstar was supposedly working on for PS3 exclusivity is it? It was mentioned that a game was in the works because of a comment about 360 exclusive DLC for Grand Theft Auto IV...
And no, I'm not referring to how this was assumed to be PS3 exclusive. Im talking about a completely different title.

Dude, are you like...slow!?
Just in the article it refers to the rumor that Sony might not be funding the game at all now.
Back to topic though, I think if it does release on the 360 then there's a further class game from Rockstar that will please their fans.

I ll mention the same thing that I did on the article on Joystiq
This game was announced as an exclusive, because it was rumored that Sony was funding it, something happened between Harrison and McNamara and (it is rumored that) they stopped funding the game.
Ever since the rumor was brought up by surfergirl about Sony not funding the project anymore, everyone knew this wasn't exclusive, not only that, news arouse about the title being developed for next gen systems, yes, plural
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/rockstar-confirms-episodic-gta-content-360-only
But then again, there is a problem with this, Tretton mentioned after E3 that he couldn't talk about the PS3 exclusive Rockstar title, so there is a small chance that LA Noire in fact might not be that title.
Anyway, sooner or later the truth will surface :]

Are there any 360 games that have multiple disks? I remember MGS for PS1 had 2, I just have not seen that in a while. I was just curious. Kinda off topic, but not totally.

You're an idiot.
When a game is announced on a single console prior to release (in this case, L.A Noire was only confirmed for the PS3) it is then considered an EXCLUSIVE to that console until any further plans of announcing the game on any other platforms take place.
The fact that Team Bondi's president mentioned L.A Noire was being funded by Sony themselves, made this an even more likelyhood.

Clearly you are the idiot (or paid Microsoft shill).
Take this and digest:
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/rockstar-confirms-episodic-gta-content-360-only
Back from over a year back...
"The financial report also stated that fellow Take-Two title LA Noire is due out in fiscal 2008. The spokesperson suggested that both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 releases are likely, stating, "LA Noire is being developed for next-generation systems."
I find it stunning how stupid Xbox360 owners are. But then I look at that piece of shit of a console the 360, and figured there are 19million morons in this world, so some of them would be posting here.

JaseH I'm tired of your 96.3% PS3 Fanboy attach rate, why don't you just stop posting at X3F? All you really post on these boards is sony propaganda & your point of view which you call fact?
Think about it~
