Actually, L.A. Noire modeled L.A. pretty darn well, I thought. :3 Not much like contemporary Los Angeles, but for a historical recreation it was really a lot of fun to drive around and super detailed. Though I haven't been in L.A. since I was 10, so take that with a grain of salt.

The first Driver had a semi-accurate detailing of Mid-City. My friend and I drove around and found what was pretty much his house in the game (crude and blocky, but relatively same layout)

Sort of but not really. Really only the Loop has any degree of accuracy. Millennium Park and much of the Loop is done really well. The Mag (err Mad) Mile resembles it sort of but driving down the video game Michigan Avenue doesn't feel the same as the real thing....and I guess they couldnt license the water tower…

not even close. They added huge rivers and bridges making it like a weird NYC but with a few iconic Chicago locations. Streets are all wrong. There's sort of a shade of the loop but it's mostly wrong. I was disappointed by this "Chicago." As someone who owns a condo on S. Wells in Printers Row.

I was so hoping that would be the case with Seattle in inFAMOUS: Second Son. I live in the area, and would always get really hyped when I'd see screens of lesser landmarks like the Pink Elephant Car Wash. Knowing that Sucker Punch was located in Bellevue (basically an extension of Seattle that lies a bit to the East),…

I don't know about neighborhoods, but I do know that from watching my brother play I've seen him look around and recognize paths to certain areas just from visiting.

Not exactly. It all looks accurate, but the city is much smaller. All the landmarks are there, but it's more of a caricature than an accurate model of the city. Which is good for getting around in the game. 3 things they really messed up though:

I'm kinda burnt out on Titanfall. I really, really like it, but I don't want to spend $10 on a map pack that doesn't add new gamemodes, weapons, or anything else. The game that I bought just feels unfinished, and I know that while they're going to update it, it still lacks enough content to justify what I paid.

...but soft and yielding like a nerf ball

Wow, you are right. It's Chekhov's shovel! This really is a triumph of a film.

Great use of foreshadowing in the opening frame.

Stop being such a pedant, especially if you're going to be an inaccurate pedant.

Thats slightly different from getting fired for those views. Im a firm believer that with free speech comes responsibility. You can be an ass, nobody is ever going to take it away from you... but you also have to face the consequences. The question here is, did the game company overreact to his tweet? Sure the…

I will concede the victory of semantics to you. And let everybody else who reads this replace "acceptance" with "tolerance" because Kinja has a time limit on edits and I've had too rough a day to discern the two apparently.

This is wonderful, thank you.

As agile as this guy is (props to him!), somehow the magic of spider-man is shattered when you see him climbing a ladder or a pipe.
