During a demonstration of L.A. Noire at PAX East a rep from Rockstar revealed that players won’t be able to complete the storyline quickly.
The rep disclosed that L.A. Noire’s main storyline will take roughly 25-30 hours to complete but that there are also other cases that aren’t included in the main story. One reason for this unusually long, in today’s gaming standards, storyline can possibly be contributed to the way Team Bondi and Rockstar have focused on the singleplayer instead of trying to make a multiplayer section.
Whatever the reason for the length of the story it’s nice to hear it won’t be a five minute game. L.A. Noire is set for release on May 17th for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
