Yes, installing a game makes for better performance...but making it mandatory? Now that's just stupid.

1 回复I... really don't see an issue with this. I do this with my games anyway, so having the next gen of systems [i]possibly[/i] requiring it won't make my butthole pucker.

8 回复I see no problem with this. Its really just about people getting butthurt about not being in control Scenario 1) Optional game installs to speed up performance Gamers: "YEAH RIGHT ON. THATS WHAT I CALL LEADING TECHNOLOGY" Scenario 2) System is designed to install all games to the drive to speed up performance. Installing games is mandatory Gamers: "WHAT THE -blam!-. MICROSOFT Y U FORCE US TO INSTALL DA GAMEZ??!!!"

2 回复Doesn't the PS3 do the same thing? I recall having to install MGS4 before it let me play it.
-
2 回复Well, this is what PS3 has been doing since it came out, and PC gamers have always had to put up with this. If it means better game performance and a quieter console and they ship with enough space to start with, I see no problem with this... aside from a lack of patience.

1 回复Doesn't seem that bad as long as a) the system comes with a good hard drive and b) like the PS4, it can be played as it installs. As for the idea that this would be the end of used games, that's probably not true. While a full installation may be required, nothing has been rumored suggests that this would be limited to one install per disc. One question, though. How much memory would the average game use? That's going to determine the definition of a "reasonable" size for a hard drive. A terabyte hard drive can be found for about $100. If you say the average game is about 50 gigabytes, that's about 20 games worth of storage, maybe 19 if you include space for system formatting, saves, DLC. I've never had that many Xbox games at once, so that doesn't seem too bad.

1 回复由Pfhortnite编辑: 3/24/2013 8:40:59 PMYeah, I just got a used Destiny game for 10 bucks off, now to wait 3 hours while it downloads! *3 hours later* "Unable to download used game" Dammit! *Gets new copy* *Downloads* *Takes up half of hard drive*

Meh, I install all my games to my Xbox's HDD anyways. Dem fast load times. And if storage becomes an issue, there's bound to be a firmware crack that'll let you drop in a bigger drive. You can jam a 1TB drive into existing 360s with some... modification.

You forgot to include some important information such as the fact that we only use the disk that has the game once to install it and the fact that the next Xbox consoles will have much larger harddrive than the current Xbox 360's.
