Rockstar has released a trailer of L.A. Noire dedicated to the Slip of the Tongue bonus case that you can get by preordering the game at Walmart (US) or Play (UK). All those pre-order bonus will be available as DLC sometimes after the game's release.

Still excited for the game though!!
What was once going to be a day 1 purchase on good faith alone will now rest in the hands of the reviews for me as this sort of thing turns me off from rash buys.
there are far too many companies doing that now
Still cant wait to play though :)
Shitty business practice, no one should ever support this.
saaad. its like an hour DLC probably and that is effecting you whether you buy it or not? then you didnt really want the game in the first place
I think we all want to play the game.. we just dont like the idea of micro-transactions in order to get the full day1 experience...which seems to be where we're heading more and more with gaming....which wouldnt be so bad if they didnt still slap a £50rrp on the base of the game

They'll ofcourse get some money to offer them to these preorder promotions, but this isnt just skin/weapons. This stuff would of been in developement from the the very start along with the rest of the game..you're looking at probably a year in advance (taking in account the design, development, acting ect)..odds are before anything was arranged as a store promotion.
It no doubt probably still wouldnt of been on the disc..planned to be released as dlc at an additional charge regardless. But again its another example of how dlc is being pushed on us these days..at the price of all of us never really getting the full contents on the disc like we would of say last gen.
Day 1 dlc, and dlc thats actually promoted before the main game is out, is not a welcome sight for me personally. But we're seeing it more.. just as we're seeing locked content in the menues of our games more too. Depressing..and only happens with gaming.
it seems the norm now so why are people still shocked or surprised when it happens :S it will just be a bonus mission which has no effect on the main story
