Jon Heier of StickSkills.com writes, "This month comes the next release from one of the industry’s leading developers, Rockstar games, but I have a concern on the formula that they are using when it comes to gameplay in their titles. Like most of the gamers my age, they grew up on pc games and when Grand Theft Auto came out it was one of the titles that made an impact on games and the future."
GTA IV turned GTA into a more grounded franchise where storytelling and immersion became just as engrossing as wrecking up open-world sandboxes.
Members of the original development team behind Rockstar Games' LA Noire are working on a new psychological thriller called Sowden House.
Hopefully McNamara is as far away from this as possible he set up shop in Australia then did nothing but complain about Australian labour laws while trying to make his workers live at the office working 24/7 on la noire punishing them for leaving at 3 am and being 10 minutes late to work at 9am the next day.
It's astonishing that none of the workers went to the fair work ombudsman as the studio would have been fined astronomical numbers
Brendan McNamara is a brilliant writer and director but he should never, ever be in charge of a studio. What he did to those devs was far beyond "crunch", and it went on for, what, 7 years? That's insane.
But I'm glad to see some of that team have come together again to create something new. A psychological thriller sounds right up my alley.

Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
is one of the few companies actually doing something different.
Most of their games may be the same according to the standard of games they make, but they all offer something slightly different.
It's definitely more than what I can say about half the titles EA and Activision churn out, which are all rip-offs and clones of each other (with the exception of maybe Mirror's Edge, The Sims and Dead Space).
Rockstar always delivers something very good and unique!
I love their games so much,and that's why i buying all of them day 1
R* Announce GTA V already!
The whole article sucked. Rockstar is the best video game company in the world. They need to develop an open world zombie game......
I ❤ Rockstar Games
