OXM UK: "Clint Hocking, the outspoken creative director of Far Cry 2 and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory now working at LucasArts, has gone against the critical consensus for LA Noire and denounced it as "derivative, uninspired and narcississtic"."
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..
L.A. Noire is coming to the library of free games available to GTA+ Members on Thursday, May 2.
Coming from the developer of the Splinter Cell series...
Only thing uninspired about the game was the ending. That was pure bullcrap.
Far cry 2 was awful, I was really hyped for the game, but it's one of the most tedious boring game experiances I've had this gen.
it was basically, drive from one end of the map back to the other, going though checkpoints with repeaditly spawning AI, didn't mater how quickly you went back to an area, there they were again. Traded excedingly quickly.
Not bowled over by the hype, or maybe a bit jealous?
Some people really cry for attention.
