LA Noire: Complete Edition for consoles News • News • Eurogamer.net

News PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3

Out in the UK next month.

L.A. Noire's Complete Edition will arrive on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on 18th November, Rockstar has announced.

US gamers get the bumper edition, already announced for PC, three days earlier on 15th November.

The Complete Edition includes all of the post-release DLC add-ons and pre-order gubbins, allowing gamers to play L.A. Noire's entire story chronologically, extra cases and all.

It will also be the first time Xbox 360 players can investigate the previously PS3-exclusive Consul's Car traffic case.

The Complete Edition launches first on 11th November in the UK. Rockstar recently blamed lengthy console development and DLC production time for the game's late arrival on home computers.

guess this explains why GAME's reduced the base game to �19.99.

Cant really see the point if the Rockstar pass sold so well?

That included all the DLC for free, Right?

Does this mean that us Rockstar pass owners will get The Consuls Car as well, or is it going to be limited to this edition only?

I've been holding off from buying this (wanted it, but was willing to wait). This might be the version I go for.

You guys will wish you'd kept holding off by the time you do buy it.

@robthehermit Doubtful Rockstar pass owners will get Consul's Car free - the Pass was specifically for the 4 DLC packs released on both PS3 and 360.

But the launch of the Complete Edition would be a good time to release Consul's Car on Xbox Live Marketplace and make 360 owners stump up for it separately.

Great idea for a game very badly executed.

Enjoyed LA Noire, sure it got a bit long in the tooth by the end of it and i can see that it would have got repetitive if you played it all in one go but if your like me and get an hour or two a day it was great. I did a case most days and really enjoyed it. Had the rockstar pass too and the DLC was OK, though didnt really bring anything new.

oh and for pittys sake play it properly turn off all the hand holding chimes and vibration, much more rewarding more like a game and less of a 'on rails' interactive story

Its nice to have a change of pace once in a while.

Same as MattRobson here, but I was annoyed by the DLC -- which I mostly played after game was done -- because it was obviously ripped out of the story.

I would much rather have played the complete story from the beginning, this version won't suffer from this and would be great.

I agree with MattRobson that a change of pace is sometimes needed, and this was a good one overall.

This is why DLC disgusts me so much.

Goes well with the recent "49% of gamers dont buy DLC" article.

"Complete Edition"? So the original release was incomplete?

So they finally finished the game? Must be due to its lack of Game of the Year awards.

@MattRobson: Right on. Don't try and play this for the story, the story is terrible.

Is there any point in buying games new any more? I'm half tempted to wait for next year's Arkham City GotY edition.

Will the PS3 exclusive case be available from XBL marketplace on it's own? I don't want to buy the whole game again to get it.

I guess 'LA Noire - Not Game of the Year edition' didn't have the same ring to it

Are Rockstar trying to piss off their customers? Call it Deluxe or GOTY (I'm sure one of the billion websites gave it that) or whatever, but calling it the Complete Edition only implies that everyone who bought this up to now has been ripped off with an incomplete edition. Serious marketing fail there from a company that usually runs the master class.
