In one case, dubbed ‘The Silk Stocking Murder’, Phelps and his partner investigate the death of a young woman whose mutilated body was found in a parking lot. That last part makes up the bulk of the LA Noire gameplay. The LA Noire developers from Team Bondi in Sydney, Australia, and New York-based Rockstar Games set out to recreate an 8-square-mile stretch of Los Angeles, reaching from downtown to Hollywood, where Phelps investigates crime scenes, tracks suspects and interrogates witnesses. “She'll play Left 4 Dead because she does enjoy shooting a zombie or two, but other than that, she doesn't play games, and I think that this game, similarly to what the Wii did, I think, and what Kinect will do, and the Move, I think it will attract a new audience that doesn't play games because they intimidated by controllers, and I think this will, in the same way, bring a new audience." "My wife, who doesn't play games, the first thing she said, she came to watch when we were doing some of the reshoots, she came and saw about 15 minutes of the game, and she said, 'That's a game I would play.' And she doesn't play games. "I think there's something here for a new audience," said Staton. To capture Staton's motion - walking, jumping and punching, for example - the actor separately performed scenes in a skin-tight suit that cameras could detect and digitize, a method commonly used in effects-laden films like Avatar. It required him to sit in a chair and recite his lines while being watched by 52 cameras and only moving his head by 45-degree angles. The blonde, blue-eyed actor's face and voice were captured with MotionScan, a new system that more accurately records the human face than previous technologies. Staton's performance was digitised using two different methods. In order to do that, he joins the LA police department." He was decorated while at war and is considered a hero, but there's a lot of inner turmoil and conflict to sort through. "Cole Phelps is a war hero," said Staton. Mad Men actor Aaron Staton stars as Los Angeles police detective Cole Phelps in LA Noire, Rockstar Games' upcoming murder-mystery saga set in 1947.
