Posted November 17, 2008 Anyone tried installing fable 2? There's a lot of load times on that which would be nice to cut down.... Not tried it myself yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 17, 2008 Loading times aren't effected too much, but theres alot less slow down when loading new areas and the breadcrum trail doesn't lag anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 17, 2008 They're pretty funny... and you don't have to use them in anything but the dashboard if that's what you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 17, 2008 New dashboard couldn't come any sooner, get really frustrated with my 360s disc drive, the other day I tried for an hour to play one game of Fifa, I never did finish a match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont understand? How did the disc drive stop you from playing a game? Did you get disc read errors? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 17, 2008 I cant wait to start installing games on the hard drive, just been playing Saints Row 2, hadnt saved in a while and then of course I get a DDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 17, 2008 I was surprised at how crappy and knackered my disc drive sounds compared to the brand new Xbox I just bought my girlfriend. I've not had an error yet but I'm slightly worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've not had an error yet but I'm slightly worried. Older drives are by different makes to the newer ones so they sound different when loading Heck, my Wii sounds different than it did before I sent it off...its just natural Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 Yeah the dreaded disc read error when the discs are in good condition. DOH.. don't mention that.. My first xbox360 suffered from that.. and every time i called support they just told me to taker better care of my discs..(mint condition).. In the end I bought a new 360 and never had the problem again. Im looking forward to play from the harddrive as well.. the noise that thing makes.. phew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 I'm just curious. When a game freezes is it the console or the disc? Unreal 3 and CnC3 suffer from it a lot so would transferring to the HDD help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 Both the console and the disk even saving to the HDD wont changed it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 If you have disk read errors won't you have trouble installing the games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 If you have disk read errors won't you have trouble installing the games? Don't think that will be a problem.. sometimes i could play for 1 hour before I got any error.. it was SO random Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2008 There any word on what time the update will be available tomorrow? I actually have to lug my xbox and router downstairs to get on Live these days until I either get the wireless adaptor or I fix the problem with my laptop not letting the wireless adaptor and LAN work at the same time.
