I can't really say whether this is pointless or not because it hasn't been long enough. For all we know this update to the discs could have possibly been a test run for something that may be used with the Xbox 720 (or xbox next or Xbox 3), but as it stands right now for the Xbox 360 it is only helping. It won't make 2 disc games go to 1 disc (Mass Effect 2 was what 6 gigs per disc? 1 extra gig is doing nothing to help that unless that compress the games even more), but that does mean we could possibly get more uncompressed stuff which can mean higher quality. I just doubt they would have done something like this so late into the game if it was only going to help out for 1 or 2 years. I hope that Microsoft wouldn't do something if it didn't benefit them (I say them because it will always benefit them more than us, even though this does kind of benefit us) in the long run.Agent_Kaliaver

Thats actually a very good point! I never thought of that. But for the record I think every company (nintendo, microsoft, sony, etc) have all done things non-beneficial to their consoles. For example when the 360 first launched we got like a 16 gb memory and a 4 gb memory. haha to todays stands thats pure garbage. Wasnt enough to save anything! Sad enough to say i still have my 16 gb harddrive. Oh and I wont even start on the HD DVD extension either... To see if this actually benefits us I guess we will have to wait and see...

John Marston! I love john, i think the voice acting for him was amazing! Besides i havent played L.A yet but i have watched a ton of videos and will pick it up soon but in my opinion john marston was an epic character and nothing else come's close.

Maybe its just me but I find coles character a little over-the-top. haha I cant take him seriously at all... To be honest I think red dead was an unbelievable game and the ending was just unreal. The game actually plays with your emotions... not many can do that for me...

[QUOTE="BrianFantana15"]Yep :) I think that microsoft is trying to compete with the PS3 and blu-ray, thats allJdez15

Of course they are! Im happy they finally did this but this late? This should have been done ages ago...

It is kind of late, also throw in the fact that the Xbox 720 is right around the corner, I don't understand it. They must have been getting complaints from developers, that's my only guess, because LA Noire was suppose to have 6 discs :O

haha that's just disgraceful! 6 discs... damn... i remember that game lost odyssey had like 4 discs and FF13 had 3. I, also,was going to say with the new console coming out soon its like why now? so i completely agree... haha whatever though. My complaints are too minuscule to account for much. So no use in whining about it :S

In all honesty this should have been done the same time the HD DVD's were all the rage... Larger disc space less hassle in the future but as we all know that didnt happen. As far as the disc read issue is concerned its just a minor inconvenience. Especially when they say they will replace you xbox for you. Better late then never i guess...

Im a competative player looking for people who want to win also. Talking is key. Win alot more matches when people help others out. I play alot of FPS and sports games. Dont really care about age level. Must be positive too. I hate negative gamers who degrade the team because they did something wrong.
