Halo 4 multiplayer will require 8GB install

[QUOTE="GamerwillzPS"]

I'm sorry but this is ridiculous. Many people are going to switch to PS3.

Who the hell would like to buy a USB flash drive to install the data in it, and insert it in the console every time they play Halo 4?

On PS3, you don't need anything. It has EVERYTHING built right in it. You don't have to buy bits to turn it into a 'complete' gaming console.

Many people who I know have switched to PS3, including my brother. I'm sorry but what the Xbox 360 is offering is ridiculous. No games, Xbox Live fees, DVD and non-upgradeable hard drive - What the hell is this sh!t?

Refusing to switch the side and stays with an inferior console? This is what I call a "fanboy". This indicates your maturity level.

shouldn't you be in school?sts106mat

Summer vacation, school's out.

[QUOTE="sts106mat"] in the other thread, you claimed to be an adult. can you explain to me what is wrong with the sentence i have quoted?

sts106mat

You made no sense. The Arcade model lacks hard drive, so...

your sentence reads very badly is what i meant, brains.

what are you trying to say?MS dont care that they are crapping on arcade owners OR that arcade owners dont care that they are being crapped on. you used very poor english there.

we know the arcade model lacks a hard drive, so do the people who buy it. if they want to play halo 4, they can buy a hard drive / flash, if they dont want to play halo 4 and cannot afford £10 for a flash drive, F*** em, perhaps they should get a new hobby.

who is arsed?

If microsoft choose to release a piece of hardware that does not have storage, then they should not make storage mandatory. Simple as that, it is bad marketing and unfair on its customers.

Of course in your mind MS can do nothing wrong.

Who the hell would like to buy a USB flash drive to install the data in it, and insert it in the console every time they play Halo 4?

On PS3, you don't need anything. It has EVERYTHING built right in it. You don't have to buy bits to turn it into a 'complete' gaming console.

you do know how insanely cheap USB flash drives are these days?

PS3 is a pain if you've got a 40gb, like myself i cant be honestly bothered upgrading since i'd rather go to a gig than buy games and even consoles and accesories nowadays.

USB flashes are like under a tenner.

and @mat the Scottish schools finished on Friday :(

I can't decide what's funnier, the lem damage control or the cows trying to play mandatory installs up to be some huge evil considering the number of PS3 games that force the user to install game data

It's just not neat to use a USB flash drive to install a game data into. You don't want a console with useless accessories sticking out of it.

Can't be bothered to upgrade your 40GB PS3? That's your problem. It doesn't make the PS3 bad. It's your laziness. Upgrading the PS3 hard drive is actually a simple and quick process.

It's possible that the recently revealed Spartan Ops campaign, which will eventually feature 12 "incremental" hours across 50 missions, will increase required HDD space even further.

Yesterday Microsoft released a teaser trailer for its live action Halo web series.HalcyonScarlet

poor arcade owners.

Amazon UK prices:

Patriot 8GB Supersonic Boost XT USB 3.0 Flash Drive: £9.99

PS Vita Memory Card 4GB Model: £12.99

PS Vita Memory Card 8GB Model: £22.62

Yeah poor arcade owners.

This is a slap in the face from Microsoft, and yet those dumb Xbox fanboys are happy to get slapped and getting screwed? It's just beyond me. :|

This is why PC gamers feel sorry for consolites in general.

looks like dvd is finally becoming a limiting factor....7 years later.

no need to feel sorry about some videogames, hell we dont feel sorry you guys are all virgins eating cornflakes out of the box while sat in your underpants sweating about world of warcraft. sts106mat

laziness no, more a case of why bother upgrading when its not that big a deal as people like you could possibly make out its a pain chopping nad changing but i'd rather use my money on other endeavours.

I honestly wonder how dumb people are, i think you've definately failed english considering your clear failure in the close reading exercise.

Oh if only PS3 gamers were getting a top of the line, highly anticipated world class Exclusive like Halo this year, they wouldn't worry so much about a 360 gamer with no HDD needing to spend a few measly bucks on a flash drive. :o

Just goes to show you, 360's got Games baby, PS3, I dunno ?

Next up, lets try to find something to biatch about concerning another awesome 360 exclusive launching this year, Forza Horizon shall we ? :P

Oh give me a break, moron. You are resorting to insults now, that basically means you've lost the argument. You are the one who said that I should be in the school and look at what you've written. Maybe you should take a hard look at yourself in the mirror.

It's a good thing that you like the Xbox 360, but if you don't like it, go for PS3. I doubt if you would though because of the way you post in here. You write like a Xbox fanboy.

Honestly, if the Xbox 360 offered better games, free Xbox Live, better hardware with Blu-ray & upgradeable hard drive, etc and Microsoft caring about their core fanbase, the Xbox 360 would have been my favourite console. There's no reason to favour an inferior console that I don't really like.

I just checked the Xbox.com page and it never says you need to installl anything. It just says

At a minimum, you?ll need at least an 8GB USB Flash Drive or an Xbox 360 Hard Drive to play Multiplayer mode inHalo 4. For an optimal experience playing with an Xbox 360 Hard Drive is highly recommended.Xbox

It doesn't even say you need 8GB free space. Crisis averted I guess?

If the console comes with Blu-ray, all of your Xbox 360 games would come with 1 disc.
