L.A. Noire is an upcoming video game developed by Team Bondi in conjunction with Rockstar Games and published by Rockstar Games. Initially announced as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, the game was later reported to also be scheduled for release on the Xbox 360. L.A. Noire is set in "a perfectly re-created Los Angeles" of 1947, with players being given an open-ended challenge to solve a series of murder mysteries.
The game blends investigative elements such as mystery, and crime solving, with fast paced action sequences from chases on foot to car, as well as gun-play. As well as the storyline missions, the player can choose to work on optional side-investigations following a call from dispatch. The player can also travel on foot, as well as in different vehicles.
Set to release at May 17.

Upon completing the task the player is rewarded with the 'Button Man' suit; an in-game piece of clothing that allows the player to carry extra ammo.

'A Slip of the Tongue'; a traffic case where a simple car theft escalates into a large scale investigation into the largest car fraud racket in the city's history.
