Found on YouTube: L.A. Noire C64, Breakdancing Niko & More...
A couple of the most reliable and creative members of the YouTube and machinima scene, Majami Hiroz and Yeardly Diamond, have struck again with this pair of very entertaining and well-made creations.
Above, the 80s-obsessed Majami Hiroz Show, whom you may remember from their Commodore 64 interpretation of Vice City's final mission as well as their sweet cover version of the Vice City theme, have apparently discovered another golden era rarity with this purported original 1986 C64 version of L.A. Noire shown via a let's-play video of the "Silk Stocking" Homicide Desk case (* fair warning spoiler alert for those out there who haven't yet cracked that particular case). With a MIDI-esque take on the L.A. Noire “Main Theme” by Andrew Hale and a spot-on 80s adventure computer games style, this one's certainly worth a watch.
Below, the prolific Yeardly Diamond always seems quick to jump on GTA parodies of the latest pop music video memes (catch the Gangnam, Rick Astley and Harlem Shake GTA vids if you've never seen them) but skewers 'em with amazing animations and hilarious sequences. This latest clip posted earlier this week finds Niko (and Johnny and Luis and Roman..) again taking on the latest cheese-pop hit from Psy: "Gentleman". Things really get interesting about 1:40 in as Niko kicks his best game to Yeardley Diamond on a date and then busts out some epic breaking with Johnny and Luis from the lobby of the Majestic Hotel to the dancefloor of Maisonette 9. As an added bizarre meta treat, check out fan personifications of Luis Lopez and Carl Johnson beefing with one another over who's the better dancer in the clip's YouTube comments.

Very honorable mention as well to these cool GTA and Rockstar fan creations we've also come across that are worth a look:
- Check out this once in a lifetime GTAIV stunt from Magillicious2 and an impressive Patriot grind from css172.
- Artist Brandon Arseneault's latest GTA pin-up girl illustration is a racy yet stunning take on our official GTAV Beach Weather artwork.
- And here's a fan art homage to the 1995 Ice Cube/Chris Tucker comedy flick Friday featuring Franklin and Lamar, courtesy of Igor 'Cemetpuu' Semetry.
- Rockstar Network has been keeping up with the folks who appeared in last year's Max Payne 3 casting event. Read their interviews with Jeremy Wallace, Louis Van Bree, Elvis Marques, Jaclyn Jimenez, Hamish and Dave Wheeler.
I feel you owe us a good mod after tlotd dlc which was a bit s**t in comparison to the other 2.
It would have filled in the gap as i waited for gta 5.Even a simple zombie mod like in rdr would have kicked ass & as you dont seem to do crossovers you could have killed off the old characters...or just johnny.
In fact you could probably knock a descent mod together in an afternoon & release it for a couple of quid & give me something to do in liberty city while i wait for gta5.
One end of the map to the other with madness in your way.
I am quite high right now so on reflection this idea may seem s**t.
I'm sure there is a lot of people who is fascinated with the music, the radio of the game every station is amazing specialy the crazy ones the comercials the spiritualism all are unique and original, I was thinking maybe you guys can program in game built a way to only listen the radio and interact with it like a radio-mode-only where you can start it and leave the tv, surround system on and listen the music, the stations, jam with the mixes, with options, (of course that can change according to fit you best interest) : ej
1) Where you can listen one station only.
2) A different station after 30 min
3) Random songs
4) All songs.
Well that is my idea I know i can get the character hit on a taxi and go all the way to the farthest point of the city but the problem is that, that affect the statistics on the time played and people start calling you for challenges and staff and after you don't play for certain time the game goes to a pause mode.
Congrats for your time keep going with the hard work make us enjoy the time in a safe way
If you have a seperate sound system you can leave this on & turn your tv off,
Thanks much!,
