If you play this game off the hard drive it performs way better!

By brentredinger | Review Date:
I originally rented this game and was disappointed by the stuttering graphics and frequent crashes.

However, I recently bought it for $12 and put it on my Xbox 360 hard drive. Its a whole new game!!! The frame rate is way smoother. It still crashed once after I saved but that is nothing compared to how it used to be. The only remaining bug is that if you zoom out fully it gets obnoxiously loud. In conclusion if you can get this game for under $20 bucks and you have 4.7 GB of hard drive space then you will have a good time.

Gamefly is selling them for around $14 right now so thats a good option. I hear the main problem with multi-player right now is that not enough people are playing it. I'm hoping to get the word out that the performance issues are mostly put to rest when you install it to the hard drive.
