So, after years of waiting and few near-cancellations, it seems this thing will finally seem the light of the day in May.
Unfortunately, it`s only for consoles - perhaps sign of the New Videogame World Order and things to come. Such complex and huge title not finding it`s way to PC - which it would thrive on - is most worrying. It seems to be Rockstar`s new PC (non)policy - half assed GTA IV port, no Read Dead Redemption, and now this. Sad.
But, it`s shaping to be a great game anyway… Especially for someone like me, brought up on a Raymond Chandler diet of books Of course I don`t expect it to be anywhere near that mood - it`s Rockstar after all - but there`s not much alternatives. And gameplay might be really interesting, if it all comes together.
Recap - setting is 1940`s Los Angeles, recreated in sort-of-realistic-GTA style. Whats different from usual GTA shenanigans -driving/3rd person shooting is the bigger linearity caused by the fact you have cases to solve. Apparently interrogation, facial reading, searching/analyzing clues all play a role.
Here`s some McNamara`s comments and gameplay video
