360 gamers our worst (well atleast mine) nightmares have shown its ugly head. In an interview with Dan Houser by Uk's OPM the Co President of Rockstar has admitted that with the certain 360 owners without harddrives (thanks Core package.. ugh) and the lack of a larger disk format that can support more space in one disk it is a challenge (currently) for devs to create a fully functioning GTA 4 game that support the developers creativity. I'm no PS3 or 360 fan boy (I don't even own a PS3 nor do I plan to soon), but I think it was interesting. For more info on the interview heres a link from 360monster article: http://www.360monster.com/newspost.php?id=0000001989

Well what do you guys think about this interview (if u read the whole interview from the mag then please share with us) and the (costly imo) decision microsoft made not to inlude a HDD in all 360's or launch support for a high capacity disk drives (HD-DVD or BluRay)?

Easy to fix, sell it with the requirement of a HD for certain features, like the ability to download content etc.

5. doesn't apply to me cause I have a hard drive, and developers have the ability to cache files if you have one. Everyone with out a hard drive should expect slightly poorer performance (example: Oblivion)
