Another could take players to the '80s in California as they pursue the Night Stalker, the actor added. "We could jump around and be a cop in different times. I would be down for that," Kohli said. "I loved it. I adored L.A. Noire." Mad Men's Aaron Staton as Cole Phelps in L.A. Noire. In particular, Kohli said he was a big fan of developer Team Bondi's facial-capture system which created lifelike expressions in the game, down to granular details like how a person’s eyebrows might move. In a game where players had to read people's facial expressions, this was a big deal, and one can only imagine how much further the technology could go today. However, Kohli said he wants a new L.A.
