You can now play L.A. Noire via OnLive on your Android-powered tablet using touch controls

Touched by crime

| Mar 20, 2012

You can now play the OnLive version of Rockstar's crime-filled PS3, Xbox 360, and PC title L.A. Noire on your Android-powered device using touch controls, which make it feel like a native touchscreen title.

For example, you can now navigate the game by simply swiping your device's screen rather than using on-screen controls or OnLive's controller peripheral.

If you fancy taking it for a test drive, you can download the free OnLive application [download] from Google Play and sign up for a free OnLive account. All OnLive games feature a free trial, so you don't have to put your hand in your pocket unless you get hooked.

Unfortunately, you still can't play OnLive games on an iOS-powered device, for the OnLive application for iPad and iPhone remains stuck in Apple approval limbo.
