Good ups, as a non-XBLer anymore I usually don't install games with a short campaign. But numbers like that seal the deal!

USB flash drives also improve load times.

If my hard drive breaks, I'm gonna look for 2 cheap 16GB flash drives.

All of them can?



Wait, are people actually surprised by this?

I know Halo 3 loaded slower but that's because it was built with playing from a disc in mind, it would be stupid for Halo: Reach to be built like that.

As long as your firmware is up to date, you can use them.

I guess not but to see by how much it is improved is definitely nice. I still can't get my head around Halo 3 loading slower from HDD.

Nope, I've tried to use flash drives, but it doesn't even recognize them.
