Is there anyone anticipating its release date?

I am planning to buy it as soon as it comes out for PS3, it looks very promising.
I'm buying a console for this game.

Care to elaborate :P.
When do you expect to receive it? What Region and what Price :D ?
i'll be pirating this on 360 ; if i like it i'd go for the PS3 version

I don't really like to pirate, but i hate buying games for my 360 (its already gone through a clamp fix, and just recently a reflow) seems to be holding well though ;)

anyway, as per topic, game is very promising, even the great Hideo Kojima is looking forward to it :D

Its freaking Rockstar - enough is said :P

Edit: to quote The-MMMs

See? Now you have even more convincing reason to get it :)
definitely exited about this release, i read that it uses a new facial motion technology which will allow you to read people's faces to know if they're lying.
props to Rockstar for delivering one great title after the other
Too sad they wont be releasing it for PC, typical Rockstar, if they have in mind to release it for PC they do it 1 year after the console, after they make sure that every console owner have bought the game :P that's what they have been doing with the GTA Series.

I expect to receive it on May 25, after it's launch day by a week, it will be region 1.
As for price, well, I'm shipping it with another shipments, but i think approx 15$ more. I have 3 pre-orders for it so far + mine :D.
Rated as of the most amazing games in 2011 and plus, it's a Rockstar Game ...
@The-MMMs: what is wrong with Kojima Sensei??? First Battlefield 3 now this! Are publishers paying him?

hehehe; maybe.

Just follow his twitter, which is where i knew he was looking forward to it. i think its " HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN"

maybe someday he will accidentally announce some upcoming metal gear ( i always hope for that).
@kareem
umm.. so, whats wrong with that? Lol why would he even get payed to say he's interested in something? I dont think Japanese people are like us :P

I think Hideo Kojima is a gamer foremost and for all, its not like he'll spend his life doing nothing but playing MGS and ZOE - devs tend to play almost all the major releases, so its great to see him interested in L.A. Noire. I saw an article sometime ago of cliffy B purchasing a Killzone 3 copy, I think its just stupid to be a fanboy and stick to one franchise.

Also, have you seen the 12 min Battlefield 3 PC footage? DICE is doing a phenomenal job with their Frostbite 2 engine. I know you hate FPS games, but this is _NOT_ the over-milked arcade Call of Duty BS, it is a real next-generation military FPS, and I salute Kojima-san for his approval. :D
I have been following Hideo on twitter from a long time, he uploads pics of his meals ;).
Dont worry i think you all know that i am a CoD hater yet i have played all of the series starting from CoD2 not completing the story modes though :P.

About BF3 well ask Shatilov: Kojima says Kareem obeys but i hate it when something isnt released yet but they hype it. Because in the end L.A. Noire might end up a Heavy Rain clone, just maybe.
Note: But in an open-world.

You guys are taking gaming TOO-serious...
If you dont like COD then you should try Battlefield
If you still dont like Battlefield you should try ARMA
If you dont like ARMA...wtf would you like
I'm not sure about gameplay, but graphics are not Hideo :(
6 days later
Nino's getting this tomorrow or Wednesday.

Do keep us notified if you get it from another shop or any time sooner ;)
I'm gonna be trading LBP2 or KZ3 for this one. Was a bit skeptical but read the 1UP review and i'm certain that i will enjoy it.
Which is to say that LA Noire doesn't merely boast some of the finest voice acting ever to grace a computer game, it has created an entirely new gaming concept: face acting. This is thanks to Rockstar's much touted and shiny new MotionScan technology, which captures a truly staggering amount of facial expression and makes the sundry creeps, crooks and occasional upstanding citizen of 1947 Los Angeles eerily lifelike. Each and every character is utterly believable, even when they're lying, which they do with surprisingly subtle expressions and glances. This is no mere gimmick; figuring out who is telling the truth and who is making a chump of Detective Phelps is the meat and drink of the game.
