Glad it did that to mass effect. However i am still pissed it doesnt do shit for Halo 3. You even get a pop up saying "This game was meant to be played off the disk, if you play it off yopur hard drive it will be slower and you freinds will laugh at you".

I am not joking...

Yeah, there is a Bungie post somewhere explaining why.  The jist of it was that Halo 3 already uses the HD to cache data and that is why after the initial Load of the level there is virtually no loading whatsoever.  Caching data from DVD to HD is much faster they said than caching HD to HD.  People knock Halo 3 technically but it's a pretty big testament to be able to play in these huge levels with no loading times even without the optional installs.

I'm wondering when Recon comes around if Bungie will go the same route or try and and strike a compromise between the two.
