This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

Today's game is LA Noire. Playing Fallout New Vegas put me in a mood for that era, but i was having issues getting NV to run, so i launched LA Noire instead and played that since i had shelved it for a bit after one of the cases.

Love me some LA Noire. Although not having the re-release on PC makes going back a bit hard.

Do you switch games daily? How do you not get lost on where you are/ what you are doing?

I usually just have a lot of free time in the day. Plus some games i like to break up so i don't get tired of them, especially if it's a game i've played before (plus, I'm a completionist so i try to 100% all my games). L.A. Noire i had put on hold because of an issue i was having. But Fallout New Vegas started having this issue where it would crash in vats and i just wanted to play something vaguely 1940s, so i said fuck it and re downloaded La Noire to see if the issue sorted itself out

What a great game. I used to play it on PS3 and it really got me into all kinds of old jazz.

I have memories of my dad playing it on the 360 when I was younger. It’s a shame I remember seeing him beat the game because now I know how it ends. But damn. I still enjoy this game every time I play it

Man, I've spent many fun hours roaming around in this game. I had it on the xbox 360, and I remember being so amazed when I first got it that it came not with one or two, but four discs, lol.

I still have the 360 copy. It’s one of those weird things that is so fascinating
