i only installed the second disc for infinite undiscovery so i you dont need to install them all just the one your playing.
I too am going to try LO. I have the 120g, so space is not an issue. It will be nice to not have to switch disks once the download is complete.....(hopefully), can anyone confirm this??
That's good to hear, I wanted to go back and revisit this game anyways and this is just more motivation. I just have to get through other games first. >_>

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.

Was watching Xplay last night. It said the load times were reduced but not significantly (can't find a link to that piece right now).

I am pretty sure you'll need to switch disk still. If not, you could install the game to three of your friends 360's, give them each one disc, and all four of you would be able to run it.

No the elevator rides have been programed to be that long.. even with the HDD install getting from one floor to the next still takes as long.

the textures still pop up but they take about 1 second to load, and other times its virtually none existent.. the stuttering still happens but much less intrusive than before.

It's still much better though, and so my eyes wont hurt while playing. The problem is that a 60GB HDD is going to set me back about £60 last time a checked (it does come with a 3 month gold trial as a bonus!) which is far too expensive
argghh the connection is crapping tonight..
you could try this...
