L.A. Noire video game: motion face capture HD trailer - PS3

[bodo635]

Half-Life 2 still has the most perfect Hand-Crafted facial animations.

[jimx117]

This game was fantastic, and it blows my mind that they literally TOOK THEIR FACES for this game.

[RaZzorXz]

Walter Bishop from fringe .. im so gonna buy it .

[CressidaTussaud]

Now that is creepy cool!

[DjRicardoVieira]

holy shit, Walter Bishop is in this game!

[JanicM]

Amazing. This should be standard (granted, you probably need quite the budget for it).

[MegaBondagemon]

David Cage is a stupid fucktard for saying that this is a "dead end technology".

[xtremeusher]

and YES is on PC too:>

[UnaccountablySelfy]

@xtremeusher with apparently 'improved graphics' over the console versions (like that's physically possible... :P )

[s900203]

Can we expect this in GTA V?

[shackafaggot]

Why couldn't they just record everything like a movie and play the video clips in game? It would have saved a lot of money. :P

[whitewartexx]

@shackafaggot Because the setting is in the 1940s.

[musiqman0709]

@shackafaggot they're trying to use new technology

[poiuy110693]

Oh my gosh when I was watching gameplay I was thinking 'man the main character sure looks a lot like ken from mad men'

snap. XD

[Andrew4906]

got this game

[2008Sameoldfitup]

[McFlanker]

[stevieray345]

[sunrise93pool]

[F0NAT0]

Thumbs up if you almost shit yourself when you saw the ''real Cole Phelps''

[Joltie]

[UhStudentOfLife]

[genussaranai]

This is the next generation in games Damm every freaking videogame should have this technology and thanks to this guys for that!! just imagine your favorite videogame with this!!!

[asendimchev1996]

Monroe was face was very tricky because he is with closed eyes . Never knew when he was lying .

[eajjoutlaw]

you know you gotta hope that they will integrate it with Mass effect 3. I doubt it will happen but wouldn't that be awesome. not to just feel the emotion but see it.... it would be epic!!!!

[videogamer163]

thumbs up if u were shocked 2 c the la noire characters in real life!

[louie5997]

@videogamer163 why thumbs up? -_-

[SonOfAWhisker]

Easily game of the year :)

[turgore]

faces look great. everything else looks like vommit.

[capothi100]

holy shit.Cole phelps is the same in the real life

[goldendude1994]

THE NEXT F1 GAME SHOULD HAVE THIS! :D

[RampantFury925]

@goldendude1994 Not that it really makes a difference cause everybody wears helmets...

[Santeria231]

wow.... it was insane to see cole phelps in real life!. Definitely wasn't expecting that XD

[TheCrazyCanadian77]

I LOVE THIS GAME

[CydexaN]

8 people are lying

[dildodill13]

the graphics are still shit somehow

[Exlemic]

WALTER BISHOP

[derickamundo]

Cole Phelps reminds me of Mike from The Real World lol.

[MrGTAlegend]

that would be fun playing as yourself in a game

[kyrosia]

WHY ISN'T THIS ON PC? :(



[Olli120]

Stop at 0:55... looks like they're using a linux OS for the motion capture.. does anyone know the exact name of the distro they're using? :)

[azalyn07]

@Olli120 SUSE Linux I'd say. look at the bottom left corner. If I had to guess the desktop environment, I'd say KDE. Not sure about the app they've written though. It might be GTK. It would be interesting to hear them talk about their use of Linux.

[GATTASPRINCE]

i wish that heavy rain used this technology :D

[Tkwarrior1]

@GATTASPRINCE i KNOW right?? I loved Heavy Rain and how realistic it was but if we could only combine the amazing in depth emotions and graphics with these facial mechanics... we would be dividing by zero.... O_O i wouldnt care what game they created with it. it would be MINE lol

[phillyxxx]

I KNEW an asian guy was behind the tech =D

[marcster1994]

This is some really good face aniamtion

[anachin13]

A GREAT GAME. 

[rimlanin]

"I saw myself today" xD

[obvman]

his arms... so... hairy D:

[krustypinoy]

Holy shit, I just played the game, and its scary seeing the characters as people in real life. Like literally, face and all.

[brightsydeluke]

Microsoft make good consoles but Sony make more advanced game disks.

[bloodydeath808]

@brightsydeluke how is it more advanced? Its the same thing.

[IGWTVideo]

@bloodydeath808 Actually, PS3 games are usually on Blu-ray discs, which have much higher capacity than the Xbox 360's DVD-Rom format.

[KentBrack]

woooow.... That's just amazing

[lolRodrigo]

holy crap, i never expected something like that, really awesome face modeling

[EyEnOtgAy]

now we need a game with arnold schwareneggers & clint eastwoods face/voice capture much like in la noire and ill be set for life lol

[cyryc]

Get ready for more expensive games - when they start getting celebs in your video games. Maybe we'll have Lady Gaga appearing in games before too long..

[Ziimulis8B]

@cyryc More expensive games will make more people turn to piracy :/

[VelaToNorma7]

@cyryc Who would buy that?

[genralreno]

@VelaToNorma7 Me.

[OZombieJesus]

Aw, come on Rockstar. It's such an awesome game, and you're such an awesome game developer. Why won't you make your new games for PC? :(

[Foxman196]

@OZombieJesus because PC players would download it

[mrsuppercut]

@Foxman196 not realy if i download a pc ggame its to see if i can play it and if i can ill buy it plus id devs sstartiedd using halo 2s protection because that was a supa hard mo-fo to crack so no one played it they went out and bought it

[zx9rider1974]

Why do I want to say "hey you guys!!"? I always wondered what happened to Sloth from the Goonies, done well for himself.

[Shazbut01]

@BryanMacHDTV I agree. I doubt they will remake it, but it's exciting to think what Quantic Dream will do with this new technology for their next game

[SmugAndDour]

It's Bill's dad! Or is it Ted's?

[androide675]

1:25 Finbarr Rusty?

[XerosXIII]

after watch 3 case of LA Noire, I say this game got a instant 5/5

It seem Rockstar once again pin a flag in the History of Gaming

[baddude1337]

Not even Heavy Rain had shit this awesome.

[macDaddyJazz]

Lol I cannot wait to buy this game even tho its out, we'll i just wanna wait til its cheap lol.

[MisterBinx]

Wow these do look great, but the game doesn't look very well done. I know these are much better than Max Payne, but they remind me of the first time a played Max Payne on PC. Just much more photogenic.

[Mabusi5226]

I think i have to watch more episodes of "Lie to me" to be good at this game!

[Nazgull123]

OMG BIG RIGS OVER THE ROAD looks way better than this............jks.

[infinitumpatata]

naahhhhhh moh underground on ps1 looked better

[MrF0XH0UND]

Needs more Hamm.

[Rokinggran]

I'm Asian so don't call me racist, but that asian guy just has the worst accent. I kinda think he's got an asian accent then he switches to Australian. WTF!?

[StMarciano]

@Rokinggran I didn't really catch an accent but I saw it again and I guess you can call it an accent but I dunno, kind of stupid to make fun of your race don't you think?After all we are all human.

[Slimhomie]

@Rokinggran Team Bondi is an Australian game developer. The guy is from Asia and moved to Australia, where he learned to speak Australian english. I bet Australians would think a heavily accented Asian speaking American english would sound weird.

[kooora18]

Wth the main character looks like his voice actor :O

I am so surprised!

[lambey332]

@kooora18 they all do jackass......

[dragonsrus1]

@kooora18 Can't tell if trolling or just really stupid.

[Tehpwnzmean1]

@dragonsrus1 Can't tell if that was a typo or not.

[lcw1980]

369 degrees, bet the 360 version will be superior

[kattastrophik]

@lcw1980

Actually it won't be superior on 360. It's being developed on the PS3, (was originally going to be an exclusive), and ported to the 360. Also, on 360 it's going to be THREE discs, which is gay.

[Snoogen11]

3:23 i personally think he is either a copy killer or he is just taking credit for the real killers work.

[dazzaboy04]

use this for future games please!!! the next GTA, the next red dead...they will be unmissable!!!

[DetectiveBlacksmith]

I honestly thought Unccharted 2 took facial realism to another level but wow....

[vernon1J]

if you have something bad to say, you are jaded. you can pick out all the little things that may seem odd or what ever, but the point is that this is pretty much state of the art. anyone ever seen that Nick Swardson stand-up where he talks about his "jaded movie friends?" if you would have seen this game 20, or even 10 years ago, your head would have exploded and your brain would have melted out of your eye sockets. fabulous job, RockStar!

[yeeeesnooooooo]

Press like if you HAVE to have this game!!!!!!! :D

[XxLiam423xX]

@yeeeesnooooooo I've got it and I LOVE IT :3

[coolyoey]

probably the best facial features in a game!! 

[luckyprince164]

now, how the fuck do i tell if someone lying

[daisylovesmoy]

wow.

[jdterrell]

It sure is uncanny valley in here...

[Solyc1]

Mega hardcore reality!

VALVE COPY THAT NOW!! T_T

[Cyanide89]

They look incredible... but.. somethings off. They almost... dont fit. :S

[xxmarkasusxx]

@Cyanide89 Completely agree... they look absolutely amazing, and this tech in a game like mass effect would be brilliant....

i think when it looks off its the facial expressions, the expressions often look like they are overused... like at 2:07, the facial expressions he does look really odd and make it seem strange to watch :L

[diegomdx]

Fucking awesome!

[manuelsoma1989]

More real than reality

[saatana4]

This + Gordon Freeman

[ProGamingNet]

i was gonna say the games got the most realistic facial expressions i have ever seen, but now i have seen how its done, i dont believe as much credit is due. shame

[ChaoticVampire]

This is so fucking creepy. The clothing should be moving with all that head movement, like the shirt collars and the shoulders, but it doesn't! This looks very inconsistent. The clothes aren't nearly as detailed as the faces and that is very jarring. Super freaking detailed facial motion capture means that the facial expressions you supposedly have to decipher are gonna be really obvious and forced.

[jthomas0630]

@ChaoticVampire i hate it when people always have to comment and look at the bad stuff of the game it looks good who cares about those stupid detail theres always some little fussy person who leaves stupid comments well the game is not done yet so maybe they will fix it and edit it

[pembo3000]

wow cant wait looks awesome rockstar does it again

[danielautotrans]

cant wait

[ImFkinPro]

THIS IS AMAZIINNGG!!!!!!!!!

[DoctorScuba]

That's Pershing square!

[Blargariffic]

Wow the technology to make games these days is absolutely mind blowing and I can't wait for this game to come out. On my birthday, no less!

[sacrosanctSUn]

@Blargariffic true true, this is mind blowing

[admason77]

Press 2 hahahahahaha thumbs up!

[93Teejay]

@admason77 No.

[dasdasist]

1:50 holy fuck

[krhysthy22]

I cant tell between the game and real life

[Wrash16]

@krhysthy22 you need glasses

[anadus7]

0:26 This actor is John Noble. He is a great actor and I hope he gets more screentime and recognition because I really feel that he is criminally underused by Hollywood.

[EpicNicky2011]

At the and the robots will take over.

[iceg112]

hee is it that the guy from charmed..... 2:48

[dc2010ac]

good man thnkyou nice



[PopeOnArope123]

I think the next step would be to work on a more realistic texture overall and more fluid body motion. impressive work

[amandarea30h]

View |\/|y Channel For A Legit Microsoft Points Gen

[jose2090]

0:30 Dr. Walter Bishop ftw! xD

[BrUSomania]

I would much rather have Sean McGowan play the main character. His voice is more awesome IMO

[kitsune0video]

This can be cool to record some old actors so we can continue seeing their movies after they died lol

[Gippotattoo]

1:50 technology begins to be scary ..

[YourGamesAndMusic]

This is just unbelievable.

[Pez712]

The game looks sick but is it gonna be like Gta or heavy rain type game? Coz it looks like there's gonna be a lot of cutscenes.

[Ataradesu]

@Pez712 It's both. It's not a GTA, but you can freely roam the Los Angeles from the 40's . And then there's a lot of dialogs, since you're a cop and have to investigate ^^ .

[RockstarGamesReviews]

This game is going to be fantastic.

[BasWithExtraChin]

Holy shit so good

[jfreeber]

celebrities have already been in games, but this will really revolutionize celebrities in video games. Conversely, I'm curious about when the first video game actors gain Hollywood fame

[International72521]

It seems the facial expression is believable but I don't think the body language is there yet to accommodate the face.

[PepsiMan491]

. ps move is way better

[paranoiarpincess]

If I win the lottery, I will buy every copy of this game to give the developers as much money as I could, then give it away to everyone so they could bask in the awesomeness for free!!

[INVISIBLEpussy]

this is fucking cool

[cubanjocker]

Now thats the next kinect lol !!

[hydrotag]

1 person has lied in an interrigation

[bloodguyRD]

and someone dislikes this, fuckin crybaby

[MrBobbie2010]

2.28 is that the man who was the bug in men in black it looks so much like him.

[SuperStingray]

Holy shit, they done it! They conquered the uncanny valley!

[kickassmage]

0 dislikes, im not surprised this looks bad ass.

[s1r0tt]

ps3 FTW!

[sintua]

I've always been a fan of Mr. Staton. Glad to see him leading this role in a Rockstar game.

[F3rgul]

:O Finally finally:D now everyone else catch up please.

[horeslayer]

is this more advanced than the uncharted games?

[apsims12]

@horeslayer the Uncharted series uses full-body motion capture that uses special mo-cap suits, where as L.A. Noire uses cameras focused on the face, the CG developers/programmers then put the footage into a computer, bring up the actor's CG counter-part, map specific points of the face on both then let the computer do the rest.

In other words this game is slightly more advanced in the tech they are using, but its essentially the same technique.

[JoeTheWiltshire]

@apsims12 Yeah but thats the selling point that theyve taken it that much further combining mocap and facial animation, you can only get so much facial expression using the same cameras as you would use for mocap

[choopie911]

@horeslayer Easily.

[ThePhatPhilmz]

james cameron, meet your makers.

[BarryDennen12]

This just confuses the HELL out of me ... a bunch of actors doing good acting on a motion capture stage.

Remind me again why they couldn't do the same thing with the Star Wars prequels? They even had people to ACT WITH on the same stage.

[MrFishus]

3:30 ...

Denny form "The Room"?...

[rajlle]

@MrFishus HAHAHA xD good one :D

[KonohasGreenBeast]

@MrFishus CANNOT BE UNSEEN

[TheGameGuy31]

@MrFishus "YOU'RE NOT MY FECKING MOTHER"

[rudyangulo]

@MrFishus "You've got the wrong guy! It was Chris R!" 

[stickydisgust]

@MrFishus You're not my fucking mottthhheeerrrrr.

[Westernden]

@MrFishus "Detective... YOUR'E NOT. MY FUCKING. MOTHER!"

[HamGreenandEggs]

@Westernden what kind of money?!

[ChrisAgs88]

This + Morgan Freeman = GREATEST THING EVER.
