LA Noire Star Says He Never Heard A Word About A Sequel
Despite the game selling millions of copies, no sequel was ever made.
Rockstar s L.A. Noire, a detective game set in 1940s Los Angeles, celebrates its 10th anniversary today, May 17. To mark the occasion, The Hollywood Reporter spoke with the stars of the game for a retrospective, and one topic that came up was a sequel.
