L.A. Noire is a 2011 game developed by Team Bondi and produced by Rockstar Games, taking place in post-war 1940's Los Angeles. The player controls Detective Cole Phelps (voiced by Aaron Staton of Mad Men fame) , a returning veteran of WWII. The game incoporates revolutionary 3D face mapping using multiple cameras to realistically capture the actor's facial expressions. This is important to the games interrigation segments, where reading suspects faces is vital to solving the several cases given. The following guns were used in the game:
A Colt M1911A1 .45 pistol is seen prominently used in the game as the protagonist Detective Cole Phelps' (Aaron Staton) sidearm. Oddly, the texture is from the Star Model-P (a Spanish clone of the M1911 pistol), why this was done is unknown as of now. The pistol is missing the barrel bushing and external extractor of a real life Model-P, so it is possible the Star brand name was used as a nod to the game's producing company, "Rockstar Games".
Cole, in his first role as a beat cop, can be seen pulling an FN Model 1922 out of a trash can. It cannot be used ingame, as it is just evidence in the tutorial case.
