Lastly, the transfer speed is greater on the DL DVD drive for the Xbox360 (Whats the read speed for Dual layer Blu ray, 2nd layer?) So therefore caching/installing to a harddrive isn't as mandatory. |
For example, the PS3 version of GTA has much higher resolution if you are watching TV. The reason, is mandatory install. You can install the 360 version on the HD if you want, but it will not make the video resolution higher, because they could not guarantee it's coming from the HD. Even if this feature was out before GTA4, it would still look the same.
This is an example of HD mandatory providing a better experience. The speed of the BD vs DVD has nothing to do with it here, as both are vastly slower then the HD.
