AlienDenzil85 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I was watching the LA Noire-related videos on IGN and in one of them, the guys from Team Bondi say that they looked at 1940s newspapers and used real news stories as a basis for the cases in the game. I love history and so I've been reading up on the likes of the Black Dahlia case which I've read is featured, as well as a few other high profile cases from the time period. I'm pretty excited now!

HLR zdmetal Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I also looked up the Black Dahlia case, pretty crazy shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takamura Bear Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Yes, the anticipation has defintely got me in the mood to read up on some old cases. I enjoy physiological stuff, and this is the sort of stuff I can really get into, even if it is gruesome and taboo. The Jack the Ripper case has always fascinated me. Black Dahlia case sounds really fucked up though. The Red Lipstick Murder case is another interesting one to read up on. http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/14351/the-red-lipstick-murder-real-crime-stories-of-1947-los-angeles-t.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its such a shame that it releases in Europe next Friday, when the US will have it a week tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H0p3sfalL Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 TheBlack Dahlia case(even thought its creepy and fucked up) is over rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggnogga Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 TheBlack Dahlia case(even thought its creepy and fucked up) is over rated. Out of curiousity, what does it mean for a murder case to be over-rated? Who is rating these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienDenzil85 Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Out of curiousity, what does it mean for a murder case to be over-rated? Who is rating these? You didn't see America's Next Top Murders? I realise murder isn't something to joke about, but I was wondering the same, who would decide on the rating of a murder case? Certainly the Black Dahlia case is high profile and so is perhaps better known than other unsolved cases, but I wouldn't say that means its over-rated.

H0p3sfalL Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Out of curiousity, what does it mean for a murder case to be over-rated? Who is rating these? What I mean is that too many people that I know(not on this site) are obsessed with this murder case. So my using of "over-rated" is my way of saying that its way too of a high profile of a case. Even if it was unsolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepaxman Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I've always been fascinated with these things too. Haven't watched the Black Dahlia film in a while, it's a good un though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowMoolester Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Watch LA confidential. That actually has people from LA Noire in it, Not to mention it's an amazing film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cod4maniac2692 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 From what I have been readign about the game, which is quite a lot, (have been waiting for game for 2 years), almost 90% of the cases are based on real life cases, not just that one case.
