LA Noire will be over 3 discs...

Ugh, although the technology used in LA Noire will be amazing. Swapping over 3 times will just be a hassle... Damn it Rockstar! You don't usually make us do this! (Still mega pumped for LA Noire btw, this is just alittle downer on what could be one the greatest games of all time...)

Anyone else find this annoying or are you guys cool with it?

yeah its gonna be sooooo tuff to switch a disc after hours of gameplay.

Oh sorry, did i not mention only comment if you have something useful to say? Must have slipped the tongue. And i didn't mean it in that sense. It is just that switching discs is stupid with the amount of technology we have today.

its a minor annoyance but not a big deal. i rather compare the fps and screen tearing with ps3 version to see which one i will get if i like the reviews of the game.

...and what will this do?

You still have to change disks even if all 3 are installed.Fair enough if you don't install them but you would think by installing them you could play right through...but nooooo...you still have to change each disc...sucks ass bigtime MS.

You only swap them: Once. Yes once. LustForSoul

I don't see this as being a problem. :) I'm looking forward to L.A. Noire :)

aw yeah so you do. Oh well looks like I won't be buying the game since I need to swap discs. What's the big deal? I don't see the problem except that there's too many lazy mofo's in this world who'll whine about anything that involves any effort.

This is why I'll get LA Noire on that other Console that is made by the company beginning with the Letter S. Xbox 360 is a great console, but 3 discs is too much.

Okay but the 360 came out in 05 and at a really bad time because there was a format war going on. If there had been a standard back then the 360 would have it but there wasnt. They cant change it until next gen and its really not a big a deal as people make it out to be. MS took the best course of action they could have for the time and thats that.

Also note that the PS3 isnt any better because when it first came out the blu ray drive was considered to be really slow. As a result there are many games have mandatory installs that take much longer than disc swaps just to get decent load times. So nobody really got it right this gen.

Oh boy, three full discs of even more GTA, erm, LA Noire! Imagine all the GTA, errrr, LA Noire they can fit onto three discs! Game looks like yet another clone from Rockstar. Unless it really does something different I couldn't care less about it regardless of how many discs it will be on. Just my two cents.sixgears2

I don't get it. It's not like you're switching disks every 10 minutes.... By the time you finish playing through the first disk, it might be good for you to get up and stretch or something, or walk a few feet to your tv and switch the disk. Also, for the PS3 owners, by the time you have to install the game first, that time you sat and waited for the install is probably longer or so for 360 users to get up and switch disks. So saying that it's better on the PS3 isn't really right. As for me, I'm getting it for my PS3 only because my brother is borrowing my 360. :)

If i install all 3 discs will i still have to swap them ?

You gotta love step 8 and step 16 which really dosent exist for most games as the auto continue when they detect the next disc. Theres also the fact that we are humans and not insects, that whole list can be condensed down into "insert disc 2 " which is only one step. Im pretty sure this person is being sarcastic but some people do think the 16 step way lol.

It won't be much of an issue for me. The amount of space needed for this game must be mind boggling. Besides, it's not as if you'll need to swap discs everytime you go to a new part of the map.hillelslovak

[QUOTE="firefox59"][QUOTE="kayoticdreamz"] 1. look for case 2. get up 3. walk over to case 4. open case 5. pull disc out of case 6. walk over to xbox 7. bend over 8. press open disc button on xbox(try not confuse with power button) 9. take out disc 10. put in new disc 11. walk over to case 12. put in old disc 13. close case 14. walk over to chair 15. sit back down 16. press A to continue as you can see a full 16 step process its not easy man.Gen007
