L.A. Noire gets unconfidential in Game Informer debut
97
As promised, Rockstar's shadowy L.A. Noire has stepped out of the shadows and into the flashbulbs of a Game Informer cover. The magazine has a 10-page feature on the game, highlighting its facial animation and, oh yeah, the recreation of 1947 Los Angeles. Pick up a copy of the magazine for the details or we're sure you can get the information from the dark alleyways of the internet.
As for the ongoing saga about what platforms the game is being developed for, neither Game Informer nor Rockstar will comment until the magazine is on shelves.

Or just get a TV with a B&W filter option. Either way.

You made arrangements? So what, you filled out the papers, booked it a flight, and made sure its passport was up to date?

Wasn't as bad Bradwart getting banned twice in one day for trolling.

Except tmac's entirely predictable. I just went to the WKC review and BAM! There's where he was banned. Surprise, surprise!
Seriously, let other people enjoy their games without trolling in their favorite game's post, and all of us will stop downvoting everything you say.
I know you pretend like you don't care, but all those whited out comments look like you're saying absolutely nothing productive... though most of the time you aren't saying anything productive.

No it was when you started the incessant trolling. You don't get banned for being a fanboy you get banned for being a troll. If you stopped trolling so much you wouldn't get banned so much. Obviously, neither myself nor Wiizer has done anything on the level of you to deserve a banning. The truth hurts and the truth is that you've become the biggest troll on the website.

Will you people shut up? Seriously. There was nothing wrong with what Tmac said. Wiizer, what you said was just trying to get a flame war started AKA trolling. This is an article about L.A Noir not about your Internet soap opera.

I haven't forgotten about it and in fact if you go back and re-read my parting shot comment on the LA Noire flame war thread you'll see I defended your position on the Wii. You've taken the trolling to an entirely new level only rivaled by Sprinkles. In fact, if you looked at your recent comments and Sprinkles old comments you wouldn't know who is who. Maybe you don't realize how bad its gotten but 5-6 bannings since September should let you know that its gone overboard. They aren't tolerating it anymore and you should take it as a hint and go back to being the old tmac who was grouchy and crabby but wasn't an obvious troll. It's also not always what you say but how you say it ... remember the site wasn't merged back then either so things have changed a lot. I'm glad their banning you for the comments your making because you deserve it. If you didn't deserve it I'd be the first one to stand up and say so. All you've really done is lost your credibility and rationale. You used to make rational arguments now you just make stupid troll arguments and its the same tired song and dance over and over again. The said thing is you used to call Sprinkles pathetic for coming back after getting banned so many times and here you are doing the same thing ... even saying the banning are specifically related to the PS3 just like Sprinkles would. The problem is you and the message should be loud and clear but you've obviously gone off the deep end and you just don't get it. Probably will never understand it because with each banning you get worse and worse. You don't even make insightful comments anymore ... just bitter and angst ridden trolling diatribes.

What, the sony fanboy thinks someone saying something bad about sony deserves a ban? Unheard of.
Anyway, you guys just continue to prove your immaturity, like Traceur said I made an innocent comment that was derailed by the usual suspects.
Now let's see if Joystiq will do anything about it. Let's just say I won't be putting any money on them.

You need help, Tigre. If you really wrote that much about some random person on the internet, you have serious issues.
Tmac is most likely flattered that he pissed off someone like yourself so much that you wrote two Joystiq articles worth of content just for him.

There is no such thing as an innocent comment from you tmac. When someone asks if they should get Star Ocean and White Knight and you say its like choosing between aids and cancer you deserve to get banned. Just like Sprinkles you turn everything into a PS3 fanboy argument. Look at you now, crying to the mods and acting like you're treated differently or unfairly. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Tigre, I wasn't saying that, I was saying that you guys (Not Tmac.. well sometimes, but not in this case) are the reason for these completely useless, annoying, overly-dramatic comments.

I agree. Lets stop already. No more page real estate needs to be wasted about someone getting banned.

Well a lot of the real estate was taken up by your big ran, Tigre.

CAN'T WE ALL JUST BE FRIENDS?
We're a bunch of strangers united by a common interest, a common hobby, and yet we let something as arbitrary as our favourite piece of plastic divide us and make us enemies.
Have you ever tried to explain the whole console war thing to a non-gamer? They stare at you like you're mad. "You *offend* someone because you don't like a game that can only be found on their favourite videogame console?" they say, and when they put it like that, you realise just how stupid the whole thing is.
We should all be friends, not enemies.

If it means anything Hyams, I always considered you and Duke e-friends/joystiq-friends whatever you want to call it.
Same with Chris and Sly. Not all sony fanboys piss me off, and I'm sorry it comes off like that but it's the easiest way to lump the ones that do together.
Otherwise I'd have to say like 5 names everytime. That would get old fast.

So let me get this straight.
I get banned for actually making an innocent comment, that was about the article. But everyone who de-railed this gets off with a free pass AGAIN.
Way to go ahead and prove my point Joystiq.

Maybe they are reporting your comments? Which is leading to the bans.

I'm with Tmac on this one (I never thought I would say this). If anything, everyone in this thread should have been banned as well.
If you look at what he originally said, it was nothing compared to the onslaught of hate that followed.
This is getting ridiculous.

Hard to say. This may have been part of the rumored deal between Sony and Rockstar regarding GTAIV exclusivity, like Agent was.

Was in Gamestop earlier today and they didn't have this issue on the shelf. It was still the Halo version.

I don't care if this is multiplat. As long as PS3 or 360 owners don't screwed over by exclusivity.
