I have a ps3 and a 360
but i'm going to buy it on 360 because i have lots of free space on my 360 on my ps3 not so much

360. Achievements and I personally found I liked the look of the 360 red dead better (not attempting a ps3 vs xbox flame war, just my personal taste)

360. I own both systems but I'm going with the 360 version because of achievements, the fact that XBL is up so I can compare progress with friends, and because I normally buy multiplats for 360. The fact that some of you guys actually would try to justify complaining about having to change a disc twice throughout a 40 hour game is ridiculous.

I find it really interesting that people keep saying they're getting it on 360 because those versions of RDR and GTA4 looked better, despite the fact that LA Noire isn't running on the same engine because Team Bondi developed their own and the PS3 has always been the lead dev.

I have it pre-ordered and fully paid for. But I honestly don't know which platform I pre-ordered it on. So it'll be a surprise to me when I pick it up on Tuesday. I like surprises.

Disc swapping's a bitch, so PS3.

PS3
-I always buy on PS3 when it's on both platforms.
-PS3 was the lead development platform.
-Exclusive content.
-Only one disc.

Xbox 360, because I'm aggravated with Sony at the moment. People have an issue with disc swapping, still? Because in the course of a forty-hour + game, you'll have to waste two minutes switching discs? Whatever. That's still probably less time than even the relatively small mandatory install the PS3 version will require.

I'm interested in seeing if there are any significant differences between the two versions. I doubt it. In which case the choice between consoles comes down to DLC content (which I doubt is all that spectacular), and console preference. Differences between console versions have been hyped before, and they've always turned out to be insignificant.

I don't see what all the hate is on people disliking disc changes.

You know what people don't like?  Loading screens.   You know what people don't like more?  Disc swaps.  They're basically load screens, but you have to do it manually.

Is that really so hard to understand?

Agreed. Plus, a lot of people like to install their games on their 360 so it runs better and the disk drive isn't running the entire time. And I for one don't have 25gb of free space just to devote to one game on my 360, which is why I may choose the PS3 over the 360. "

" PS3, I'd rather one disc instead of three. "

I've been wavering a bit, but I'm finally locked in on 360. I need 'dem cheevos. And I don't like the DS3.

Dude, let me start this off by saying I am completely sympathetic to what you're saying.  I don't understand the ignorance that causes anal-retentive people to fester over which version will be minutely better, especially considering the evidence they're using is based on faulty misunderstanding.

But that has to be the most blatant example of a run on sentence I've ever seen.  I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

PS3.  Generally any games developed originally for one system I go with that system.  The three-disc v. one disc thing and PS3 extras are nice bonuses.

" @bonorbitz: A lot of people cite GTA IV and RDR as examples of why they're getting the 360 version, namely that those games were better on 360. However, that has no impact on LA Noire because Team Bondi isn't using the RAGE engine, they're using an engine they developed themselves originally for the PS3 and ported to 360. So yeah, people don't seem to understand that. "

I see. I was one of those people at first, to be honest. I looked around the net and read up on that GTA4 and RDR did run smoother on the 360, but that's before I found out about the whole Team Bondi/new engine thing. I also didn't realize that Noire was a PS3 exclusive at first because I didn't start following the game until recently.  So, after doing some digging I ended up flipping my pre-order from 360 to PS3.

Are our panties dewadded now? "

i have both consoles, but i pick the ps3.

although they're nice perks, i didn't pick ps3 because of 1 disk or extra things that i'll probably neglect.

i just prefer keeping all multiplat on the ps3 while the 360 gets the exclusive games.

360

oh well, have to take >1min out of my time to change a disk.
I dont have a PS3 (yet), but the disk changing thing to me doesnt seem like a valid reason not to buy it for another system

I'm unsure what I should get it on at this point. It's actually the only time I've been trying to figure out which console to get a multiplatform game on. Usually I go for 360 because I'm an achievement whore, but I'm not so sure with LA Noire. :'(

I've got the 360 version pre-ordered, but I can switch it up on release day if I so choose.  I want to read some reviews before I pick it up just to see if any game has any technical issues or vastly superior graphical fidelty, which I'm sure isn't the case, but you never know.  All things being equal I'll probably get the 360 version as I prefer the controller and I'd rather collect the achievements than trophies, but I can be swayed over to the PS3 version very easily with just one or two negative reviews of the 360 version.

PS3, for a number of reasons already listed and I want the PS3 section on my shelf to be a little bigger, makes me look like a total fanboy even though I'm not.

Get it for what you know, bro.

I would only buy games for the PS3, and at this point, it would never change. So the choice is obvious for me. If I had a 'box, I'm sure that wouldn't even be a factor. And vice versa. It's about what you know, it's about what you feel.

What do you feel? "

You say that people dislike disc swaps more than loading screens as if it were true for everyone: but it's clearly not true for everyone, or there wouldn't be any disagreement. I don't hate people for disliking disc changes, I just think that in the grand scheme of things, the difference in time between a pre-load installation sequence and a disc swap is negligible. So yes, I do have a hard time understanding why it's a big deal to people. A big enough deal that it affects their purchase. It's your choice of course, but I still think it's silly.

PS3, don't have a 360. would prefer to have a PC version though. I'm still holding out for RDR on PC.  Looks unlikely though =/

360, for the simple fact that I have no choice.

360 because I can

As much as I love the 360, I'm going for the PS3 on this one. I only recently purchased one and would finally like to enjoy the convenience of it being able to play single bluray discs. 

xbox 360, apparently everyone is rich and has both systems

plus i really dont care about the disc swap

getting it for the 360

Getting it on the 360 because I do not own a PS3. If I did own both, however, then I would definitely go for the PS3.

So you'd rather interrupt game play twice to get up and switch discs than let your PS3 install the game once before you start playing.  That's not even taking into consideration that you SHOULD install your games on the Xbox 360 if you value it.  I agree that it is a minute point, but if we know no difference between the two other than one occupies three dvds and the other occupies one blu-ray, I as a neutral consumer will take the one that requires less work.

Besides, my point wasn't even a comparison of the pre-install time to disc swap time.  Besides, in which situation would you not install the game on your 360?   Maybe if you were renting it, I could see your point.  I was just trying to logically explain why some people don't like to manually load their game data, instead of playing seamlessly.  What is beyond my comprehension is why that seems unreasonable when I make my purchase decision.

Regardless, I won't be flopping my pre-order six times and rolling in bed at night worried I'd chosen wrongly.  If PS3's version turns out the inferior version (which no evidence suggests one way or the either), who cares, I'll still play and enjoy the experience as any sane person would.

I am going to get it on the ps3.  The only thing that kinda bugs me is I won't be able to redeem the code for the pre-order stuff since psn is still down.  Maybe it will be up by Tuesday (what am I thinking?) no way that is happening.

PS3,

PS3. I love Mass Effect 2 and Dead Space 2 on the 360, but the disc swapping can get a bit annoying. It's also the lead platform and it comes with an exclusive mission. Easy choice.

PS3 for the one disk but I have only one controller for my PS3 and I hate anyone using it other than me but I am going to have to deal with it.
