Happiness.

Fantastic news for non-console owners. It really is a great game, deserves all the hype. Sort of wish I hadn't played it though, just so I can play it again and not know what happens.

But if you do that, then you can't play it again and not know what happens.

Good news for people who only own a PC. I'm just hoping a better job is done on it than the GTA4 port they did.

Too bad Red Dead Redemption wouldn't come as well.

I wish Red Dead would come as well, but I've already traded in my inferior PS3 copy for the superior X360 copy (despite completing it on the PS3). I will gladly do it again if it came out on PC though.

I haven't picked up LA Noire yet, because I had to choose between that an The Witcher 2. I figured CD Project (not to mention their daughter website GOG.com where I bought the game) needed my money more than the filthy rich Rockstars. Glad to see it coming to PC though, so I will obviously vouch for that one when the time comes, unless it turns out it's unplayable and buggy and worse than the PS3 version.

In what way is the PS3 version inferior?

According to the article, the PC version will "look better, and feature an extra dimension on the console versions. Rockstar say we’re getting “increased fidelity and improved graphical enhancements” along with “3D support for an even greater sense of interaction and immersion.”"

What he said.

Anyway, I really can't recommend LA Noire enough, especially to folks that I know like adventure games. It's not quite the same as a traditional adventure game, and it does have its car chases and shoot-outs, but it's so great to see a game like this doing so well.

Yeah, I really do hope that is the case, it's just I'm not that trusting unless I see some evidence, haha.

Graphics aren't as good on the PS3 version of RDR, not as much foilage, field of view isn't as deep, etc. Unless you've played both versions(I own both versions), honestly you wouldn't notice the difference. It doesn't really affect gameplay or anything.

To late, I already have it for the 360, though for people who don't have a 360, that's good news, as it is quite the awesome game.

I actually hope they don't make it too intense. I got the graphic specs, but not the RAM.
