He says, Hangar 13 & R* San Diego working on a crossover Game between Mafia & L.A Noire.
We should expect a demo at E3

I’ve received some news about Mafia and L.A Noire (in a big working progress), actually it is going to be one big game ! A cross-over between the 2 series. The studio in charge of the development of this crossover is Hangar 13 and Rockstar San Diego.

A real time demo version will be showing during E3 2015

Concerning the game itself, you will be able to create your own character (flexible story), including a massive online multiplayer mode.

I will tell you more when I have more information.

Of course take this with a grain of SALT.

That doesn't make any sense. Mafia+LA Noire+ customizable character don't seem to fit together in my opinion.

I have no idea what's that supposed to mean.

Like, what does "LA Noire x Mafia" even mean?

GTA 5's character switching but you'll be switching between a cop and a gangster.

Jawmuncher · May 25, 2015

Seems pretty cool to me. Switch between searches and regular mafia missions. Hell will help fix the repetitive nature of LA Noire.

dex3108 · May 25, 2015

I would take this with showel of salt not grain of salt.

v1lla21 · May 25, 2015

That would be awesome. I don't believe it though.

Karspankey · May 25, 2015

Sounds interesting. If they mashed AGENT, Mafia and L.A. Noire together using each games respective strengths, then I'll finally get the game I wanted L.A. Noire to be.

ffejeromdiks · May 25, 2015

Yeah, not buying it.

Rockstar never shows demos of anything at E3, why start now? (Especially with a multiplayer focused LA Noire/Mafia hybrid)

Turkoop · May 25, 2015

Take Two has so many rumours at this E3, unbelivable.

Welfare · May 25, 2015

Set it in the Old West and name it Red Dead 3.

Bry0 · May 25, 2015

Cops and Mobsters, why are you guys saying that doesn't go together? Doesn't necessarily mean you have to jam detective work into the game. Could just be a crossover of some characters or something, or you play as cops chasing down mobsters, then it swaps it around so you get both sides of the story.

Lord of Castamere · May 25, 2015

There was something in the E3 thread that said to expect more La Noire.

HOLY SHIT WHAT IF

3 Protagonists
-High up Mafia member, Capo maybe
-Rookie Mafia, undercover cop/informant later in game
-Detective working against Mafia, plays like LA Noire

JuanLatino · May 25, 2015

Agent comes back to live at E3 and together with Last Guardian Sony Fans will get an heart attack

dreams are beautiful....are they?

JehutyRunner · May 25, 2015

Rockstar don't do demos at E3. At most, a trailer or an announcement. And that's once in a blue moon.

That in itself is enough to tell you it's fake.

Willy Wanka · May 25, 2015

If it's real, I'd hope it would be more 'Mafia' than 'LA Noire'.

I think this is the fastest I've ever come around on a concept, at first It seemed ridiculous...but now mere minutes later it seems genius.

Hope it's true, I've always wanted a open world narative where you control both the criminals and the police on their trail.

I just hope they bring back the facial scanning tech from Noire (and most of the cast of Mad Men again)

IdreamofHIME · May 25, 2015

LA Noire X Bioshock

Have to solve a series of grisly murders in Rapture.

EDIT
LA Noire X Bioshock X Manhunt

Have to solve a series of grisly murders in Rapture, but also play as the murderer carrying them out

Well it's not only Rockstar's game if this rumor is to be true. If the game is going to be called Mafia III like I'd assume, then I would see no reason for it not to have a demo. Mafia II had one E3.

Perhaps Take Two is developing and Rockstar is just simply letting them use the IP? That's the only way I can see it actually showing up at E3

So you will create 2 characters? Seems really weird to me.

I would've preferred a sequel to both instead of this.

Chris1 · May 25, 2015

Mafia 2 was free with GWG this month on the 360, not saying it adds much to these rumours but generally if there's a sequel coming out MS makes the game free with gold a few months before hand. TR and The Witcher 2 being the most recent examples but they've sort of followed that line of thought since the beginning of GWG.

Probably means nothing, but it's something to look at I guess. Personally I don't necessarily think this is true but I hope to see more from LA Noire in future.

A Link to the Past · May 25, 2015

BioShock and something else. IdreamofHIME's idea w/ LA Noire sounds good, I'd also like to have Grand Theft BioShock, and be a criminal in, like, New Rapture or something

SlipperyFishes · May 25, 2015

Red Dead 2K16

Gambit 1138 · May 25, 2015

Red Dead Revolver X Bioshock

And it's gonna be HUGE

Kariodude · May 25, 2015

This could be incredible. They both completely nailed very different aspects of that time period. Combined it could be one hell of an amazing game.

Acquiescence · May 25, 2015

Loved L.A. Noire, thought Mafia 2 was resoundingly average. Hmmm, conflicted.

It's probably bollocks anyway.

I Wanna Be The Guy · May 25, 2015

Rockstar San Diego working on something that isn't Red Dead? Bullshit.

The best would be this guy being full of shit, so I'm hoping for that.

The Lone Courier · May 25, 2015

Seems like bullshit.

Lord of Castamere · May 25, 2015

I take everything thing back. Creating your own character is stupid. This is stupid.

CambriaRising · May 25, 2015

Make Bully 2 instead of this mediocre shit.

ComputerBlue · May 25, 2015

Loved LA Noire, loved Mafia even more. But I can't see how a cross over between these two would be great especially with a massive online component.

Here human controlled mafia player, sit there while I interrogate you for 5 minutes.
