L.A. Noire Proves That Crime Can Pay
Take-Two stocks rose sharply on the back of the positive critical reception for Rockstar's gritty detective drama.
Shares for Rockstar's parent company closed today at $17.10, up almost 8 percent from yesterday, to reach a 32-month high. GamaSutra reports that this is the the highest its stocks reached since 2008, after the failed acquisition attempt by Electronic Arts.
Our review was one of many ringing endorsements for the Team Bondi/Rockstar collaboration. L.A. Noire currently sits above the 90 high water mark on Metacritic. What do you think of the detective story thus far?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
