Rockstar Games and Team Bondi have taken off the covers of L.A. Noire, their dark and violent detective thriller set against the backdrop of Los Angeles in the post-war years of the late 1940s, the most corrupt and
violent period in the city’s history so far.

Using stupidly detailed “performance capture technology”, they have managed to get everything you can from an actor’s face (emotions, expressions, subtle movements), L.A. Noire is pushing to be a realistic detective game forcing players to judge a person by their actions in interrogation.

Oh, and this trailer was made entirely from in-game footage.
