Rockstar releases in-depth LA NOIRE gameplay trailer

With the narrator, does anyone else think they were actively going for something like a History Channel-style documentary?

The narrator kind of sucks, and I feel like they reveal too much in this trailer. But the animation looks fantastic.

Not a fan of the time period, but a chance to be a cop again after the taste Condemned: Bloodshot gave me is good enough.

I sort have a cookie cutter expectation for rockstar, perhaps unfairly, but the story looks good even to someone who isnt typically interested in the genre. I also enjoy the nature of open worlds 'screw around factor' which looks like it wont play a large part in this game /if/ its done right imo. As long as they nail the gameplay outside central plot i think it could be great, though i am a bit apprehensive about fisticuffs, and random tangential crap that sandbox tends to allow, in that way it seems like it posses a lot less sandbox value than something like RDR.

I'm not a very big fan of how Rockstar narrates their trailers. It was annoying in RDR and it's still annoying now.

The investigative and interrogation scenes seems quite rad. Hopefully they take up most of the game and the "action-y" bits take a back seat.

Nothing wrong with the narrator, I thought. He seems very strategically chosen to fit the time period of the game. Speaking of which, the time period is awesome. I have high expectations for this game, but I doubt there will be very many open world shenanigans like with GTAIV, since you're a cop. Shoot a civilian and you'll probably get in a lot of trouble.

Gameplay looks solid, and the graphics/animation is beautiful.

this will be my birthday present to myself. I'm excited to play this, it looks great!

Wait, is there going to have multiplayer???
