L.A. Noire the Most Expensive Game in Development? (L.A. Noire)

Sep 22, 2008

Edge writes: "Rockstar's crime thriller L.A. Noire "could be the biggest budget videogame in development anywhere in the world", according to Tom Crago, the CEO of Tantalus and the president of the Game Developers' Association of Australia.
