G4: "I am at a loss as how to properly categorize it and have little interest, as it is only a distraction from a stunning accomplishment. The sheer audacity of the game would be notable in its own right -- the languid pace, the de-emphasis on combat, the prohibitions against the player going on auto pilot -- but it's how the role of design, storytelling, art direction and sound all conspire to create a sublime experience.."
Members of the original development team behind Rockstar Games' LA Noire are working on a new psychological thriller called Sowden House.
Hopefully McNamara is as far away from this as possible he set up shop in Australia then did nothing but complain about Australian labour laws while trying to make his workers live at the office working 24/7 on la noire punishing them for leaving at 3 am and being 10 minutes late to work at 9am the next day.
It's astonishing that none of the workers went to the fair work ombudsman as the studio would have been fined astronomical numbers
Brendan McNamara is a brilliant writer and director but he should never, ever be in charge of a studio. What he did to those devs was far beyond "crunch", and it went on for, what, 7 years? That's insane.
But I'm glad to see some of that team have come together again to create something new. A psychological thriller sounds right up my alley.

Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
L.A. Noire is coming to the library of free games available to GTA+ Members on Thursday, May 2.
Talk about falling in love with a game. This looks amazing.
It looks like my high hopes have been met, this is a game I have always wanted and I never thought to be possible, I am soo glad I was wrong!
So many kids on here are going to hate on this. OMG I can't shoot pedestrians and Mp. Unfortunately their caveman like brains can't register how important this is.
This review is so well written, Adam Sessler truly earns the right to be called a game journalist.
