I really don't think so... If a developer REALLY wanted to use the harddrive, they would. They would just put a "Requires Xbox 360 harddrive" sticker on the box. Majoras mask required an expansion pack, as did Donkey kong 64. Donkey Kong 64 packed it in with the game. They could sell a version with the harddrive packed in for a slight discount ($120-$130). Or just sell it alone, as Majoras Mask was, and require the consumer to go out and buy the harddrive themselves if they indeed didn't have one. This is the exact same thing to me. I really don't see the difference. |
I was wondering about that actually. Does Microsoft allow third parties to make games that require the harddrive? And if so, would a third party want to sales wise? What's the % of 360 users that don't have the harddrive in it? |
Well they already sold at least one harddrive required game at retail, Football Manager 2006, so it's not like it would be impossible to release another.
