How many 360 games require the HD at this point, out of curiosity? Just that Football Manager game?

Double-true.

What more can be done w/this series? GTAIII was a tremendous experience...but I've no desire to play any of its sequels and GTAIV doesn't look to be any great leap forward for the genre. Am I missing something here?

Final Fantasy 11 does too, no?

You're right. It was an amazing step backwards. Keep leveling up faggotry out of my action games, thanks. This goes quadrupally for Castlevania.

Leveling up in SA was such a non issue it's not even worth mentioning.

God damn, wheren't you listening at all? Oodles could be done to make it not only better, but make it once again revolutionary. That is, those oodles could be done if 9 people worldwide didn't own a Zboz retard pack w/o harddrive. Conclusive proof that GTA 4's mediocrity will be MS's fault and MS's fault alone.

Oh well. The world will never know what could have been.

Seriously. I was upset about it, myself. And then I played the game.

so somehow more disc space (blu-ray) and a system cache (HDD) are the only things that can get Rockstar off their asses to make something worthwhile? sounds like a crutch to me. besides, Rockstar knew when they signed the exclusivity with MS that there were different sku's. somebody's making excuses now.
