Regarding point 3, I think what Squilliam is saying is that no 360 game requires a mandatory install, while plenty of PS3 games do, so 360's drive is at least not worse than the PS3's. I don't think he's saying that it's necessarily better.

 

If you see my post on this page (3), Halo 3 uses the HDD (if present). That increases the speed of data delivery. How much you wanna bet that this wasn't a one time implementation? ;)

 

Uses the HDD if present = non-mandatory installation.

 

Hello. you CAN'T have a mandatory installation if NO HDD exists, of course. You CAN have mandatory installations IF a HDD exists in EVERY console. We are talking about things that WOULD LEAD to the end result.

 

It's a non-mandatory installation so my point still stands that just because certain games have 360 optional installations, that doesn't make 360's drive performance look worse than the PS3's.
