Absolutely! And please keep the setting. We all know that film noir is 1940s L.A. - before cars got tail fins and lost them again. Spoiler alert!!! There is a way to bring Phelps back. We didn't see him die. Jason Bourne anyone? Phelps can be a private detective now (say one year later: 1948). No amnesia - and his old colleagues are still around, some bitching, some helping him out. That would be just perfect!

Okay, so the guy in the orange shirt is not a direct reference to "Two and a Half Men". He just has an orange shirt. Second, the Mad Men episode where Ken Cosgrove tap dances came out two years after LA Noire. The fact that Max Payne lives in apartment 304A is merely a coincidence (in LA Noire, the A is simply for Antonia). All of the husbands in the Homicide cases have lost their wives, are they all references to Max Payne as well? The Getaway is not a Rockstar Game... "Stairway to Heaven" is a real cocktail. The hat in the bin isn't even the same time of hat as John Marston's. The Pig N Whistle was a real chain of cafe from L.A, it's not a specific reference to Chinatown. Also, a Pig N Whistle doesn't even APPEAR in Chinatown! There's no Chandler book called "The Big Sheep", did you mean "The Big Sleep"? The SW on the radio stands for "Short Wave", and the only sounds you picked up were the local radio...not unusual. Aside from that, interesting video!
I can understand everything you're saying except for the max Payne Easter egg. It's a clear intended nod to a game they've made in the past. The point of an Easter egg can sometimes be that subtle and 'coincidental' because it's hidden in plain sight. Rockstar are known for putting small detail Easter eggs like that in other games as well.
@@WuTangWarrior Rockstar didn't make Max Payne though. They own the IP now and they made the third game but at the time they didn't own and they hadn't made a Max Payne game. Also L.A Noire at first wasn't even made by rockstar, Later they turned into rockstar whatever but they were just a developer under Take Two interactive.
Totally agree, A lot of them are a big stretch and some are blatantly wrong and the video has a lot of incorrect information. Like Rockstar didn't develop Max Payne, and you could say L.A Noire wasn't even a rockstar game, because at the time the developers had a different name, but shortly before the game came out Take Two interactive (who owned Rockstar and this studio) just made them into a new rockstar studio in sydney. That's it.
@@lieutenantjoker2957 They didnt make Max Payne 1 but its a very obvious nod to a game series that they own and most of the devs probably played the hell out of it when they were younger.
The two burglary detectives, Caldwell and McManus (Manifest Destiny) are named after two Scottish footballers who both played in defence for Celtic. Previous Rockstar links to Celtic can be found in the virtual horse racing in GTA San Andreas, where one horse is named Henrik's Jaw, a reference to Celtic legend Henrik Larsson suffering a broken jaw not long before the game's release.
6:25 The names in the El Mar Hotel registry aren't really proper Easter eggs. It's understood this is the kind of hotel where people don't register under their real names, but rather use the name of a famous person instead.
idk if this counts as a secret but "tylor chase" the actor who plays martin in neds declassified plays minor character hank newbern and also exists as an npc throughout the game. which as someone who grew up watching neds declassified its so funny to see martin roaming 1950's LA in full regalia.
You forgot a few things, in the notebook that had fake names (that were actually real) you could flip to the next page for more names. Also, in the first patrol case where you visit the apartment to apprehend Schroeder you can see that on the apartment mail box there is a Friday the 13th reference with the name "T. Jarvis" on the 4th room.
Also with the Nero Wolffe thing, there's another one that reads L. Dudley, which is probably a reference to leautenant Dudley, from the LA Quartet book series which this game borrows a lot from
You missed an Easter egg or Reference. In the first mission "Upon Reflection", If you check at the names at the notebook at the gun shop carefully,you will see a last name "Rosenberg" which references "Ken Rosenberg" from GTA Vice City.
The tap dancing scene is NOT a EASTER EGG it was JUST A CONINCIDENCE as the mad men episode with that didn't come out till 2 years AFTER LA NOIRE even released!! It's funny as that's the most replayed thing in the video but is actually not a EE unless mad men is actually referencing LA noire somehow
i wonder if when he mentions Galloway is a drunk, if "Bekowsky" was hinting to the writer, Charles Bukowski, since he lived in the LA noire times off of Hollywood blvd
LA Noire, Midnight Club and Max Payne are in the same universe (Because they based real life city, of course) GTA, BULLY, and MANHUNT are in the same UNIVERSE ALSO. IS RED DEAD IS THE SAME UNIVERSE AS LA NOIRE, MIDNIGHT CLUB and MAX PAYNE? Well, they references New York and real life city, so I think they are connected.
LA Noire wasn't developed by Rockstar Games and neither was Max Payne 2, and The Getaway really had nothing to do with Rockstar. Where are you getting this? 1:513:28
The Mark Hammond Easter egg is cool except The Getaway wasn’t developed by Rockstar it was developed by Team Soho, the guy who founded Team Bondi (the developers of LA Noire) is also the guy who directed The Getaway so thats the connection
Jon Cryer isnt in L.A. Noire, but a lot of other actors are that you didnt mention, which makes sense since it is real actors playing all the characters.
I think the black caesar case is a reference to Frankie Lymon who was a singer in a boy group they made that song “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” he died from a heroin overdose in 68 at the age of 25. Well at least how they made the morphine overdose victim a musician as well
Acthaully the mad men reference at the crime scene is an accident because the tap dancing clip is from season 6, which came out in 2013, l.a noire came out in 2011
I knew the bartender looked and sounded familiar! I recognized him as a bartender in something else but it's been so long since I watch HYMYM that I couldn't place him.
The Getaway was not developed by Rockstar, it was developed by Team Soho - however the game's director went on to found Team Bondi which made LA Noire under Rockstar
Half of them are kinda not easter eggs since they really can't be proven, but considering how many easter eggs Rockstar puts in their games; I can't help but believe you.
Also the communist penetration thing is a reference to the book The Big Nowhere, in which one of the big subplots is a group of detectives is sent undercover to figure out communist collusion in the film industry
I played this game once, completed it. I still remember every mission and aspect of the storyline. It was literally like playing a movie
Where was the weed mission then
@rocknepoovey4381 lol in the last 5 years since this comment my memory has deteriorated.
do you remember now
@pastian001 Age does a number on you. But for the most part, yeah I still do lol
One of the Most Underrated Games Ever
Doubt
True
Nah, it was rated just right.

sneakysnakepie1 really? But the main character is died
sneakysnakepie1 la noire 2 is being made soon
sneakysnakepie1 Yeah
I get that 'Noire' is generally applied to the 40s cop aesthetic, but I'd kill for a sequel to be set in 1960s LA

The one about the actor in the orange suit is no easter egg the game has real life actors and people playing them over 70 i think.
1:25 lmao they made Cole Phelps into a real thing
Lmao
Cole Phelps is actually based on a actual man you can see it in motion capture and bts of la noire
@@AJ6spd it was a joke
That’s aaron staton he was the one who played in L A noire as Cole phelps both Cole phelps and Aaron staton both look like to peas in pod🇬🇧

The Getaway was Team Soho game developed by Sony Computer Entertainment
You are right. The conection is with Brendan McNamara who directed The Getaway and later founded Bondi Studio, He also wrote an directed L.A. Noire.

Previous Rockstar links to Celtic can be found in the virtual horse racing in GTA San Andreas, where one horse is named Henrik's Jaw, a reference to Celtic legend Henrik Larsson suffering a broken jaw not long before the game's release.
Max Payne 2 had some insane graphics for 2003.
My most favorite game ever made
I think max payne 1 and 2 was developed by remedy and publisher was rockstar.
Stan Yeah and The Getaway is not developed by Rockstar, but by Team Soho.
it was, only 3 was made by rockstar
LA Noire was also only published by Rockstar
@Falco Gaming Team Soho had nothing to do with La noire
Could that 9:57 be Armando Mendez reference to VCS character?

I noticed that also i was wow
7:34 well I watched HIMYM 2 times, and I've totally missed that
9:53 you could see apartment 15- its supposed to be Dudley Lynch, the bartender guy that was interrogated in 'A marriage made in heaven'
He's also an actor from Mad Men. There's a ton of them look it up on google.

The cowboy riding the mechanical horse in the opening cutscene is wearing John Marstons actual hat.
I'd add the character Curtis Benson which to me is obviously named after Curtis Hanson, director of "L.A. Confidential".

It's getting remastered for the One and PS4.

4:04, That cowboy's hat looks like something, you would find in RDR2 and it also looks like John's hat in that game before the timeskip.
Rockstar WAS NOT involved in making The Getaway because the game would have had a PC port using Renderware if they were
I've got one more. Dr. Harlan Fontaine and Micah Bell from Red Dead Redemption 2 have been mo-capped by the same actor.

Probably not, since LA Noire was developed by Team Bondi and published as a Rockstar Games title.
your channel is awesome
u forgot about Garrett Mason's appearance in the hit and run case when u first the knife in the first sweep
That Mark Hammond thing is funny because this game really reminds you of the getaway with it graphical styling
In the first case in the gun order book you can see O'Hara. He uses the same gun as Michael O'Hara from The lady from Shanghai. Anyone else saw that?
You got something wrong. The getaway wasnt developed by rockstar lol they were developed by team soho/ london studiously
7:58 : _Meatball? [Laughter] It's killing me! (From AVGN)_

At 6:44 I think “Pig N Whistle”could be also Referring to Peg Entwistle too.
You missed the Sherlock Holmes Easter egg
Detective Lt.13 which is?
In LA Noire you can find Sherlock Holmes book
What about how the only letters that don’t blink on the title screen spell out “lie”?
I had this good on my Xbox 360. The graphics looked better than the PC.
Also with the bully reference there is also a mission called "the setup" in bully
Only thing is with the mad men one, is that scene is from season 6 which came out after l.a noire was released
RIP COLE PHELPS
I
bruh wtf im barely on the homicide missions
Stfu fr not everyone’s played t
Dreden Downen he ruined it for me too
I was just getting to arson...
7:50 That Reaction Gets Me Laughing Everytime
There was a rattlesnake sound when you picked up the hat at 6:10 on Xbox. At least when I played it.
0:53 that's why he looked familiar
4:08 Mafia 2 sends his regards
For Kellog's Corn Flakes, it was "The silk stocking murder" not "The naked city"

Who pays this much attention to these details?
Apparently not the creator of this video
On the map between Olympic blvd and 10th street there is buildings in the shape of the letters ‘CJ’ maybe a reference to GTA San Andreas?
The amount of typos in this is astounding
8:59 there is reference on clint eastwood
c. westwood cool
There's also many other references to celebrities in that book that he forgot to mention

I want to know something about the damn remaster of L.A. Noire!!!
where is it ?
hats off to john his hats still around in 1947
The guy you said looks like the guy on two and a half men is actually a guy off of madmen I don't know his name
The Big Sheep!?
The book/movie was The Big Sleep. It's a euphemism for death.
Did you fall asleep counting sheep?
Thanks for the video! When I played this back in 2011 I did realize that the dude in the orange shirt did look like the guy from "2 and a half men"
I always thought Jack Kelso's office building looked a lot like the one in Double Indemnity
What does "a. maldonado" has to do with max payne?
I think the black caesar case is a reference to Frankie Lymon who was a singer in a boy group they made that song “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” he died from a heroin overdose in 68 at the age of 25. Well at least how they made the morphine overdose victim a musician as well
6:04 that’s a bit of a stretch

Ah yes the white lighter from charmed. Great show.
