For Gears of War, do I need an xbox hard drive or can I play it with just the core?

Question

I ordered an xbox 360 with Gears of War. I was wondering if I need the hard drive or not to install the updates to play online successfully. Thank you for your answers :)

Answer 1

You need the Pro system with hard drive to save games and to play on line. The core system is pretty worthless for gaming.

Answer 2

technically u don't need the hard drive but u can't save, live... The microsoft people made it seem like the core is for normal to beginning gamers while hardcore gamers get the 400 dollar kind but the truth is u can't do **** w/ the core. Save up 100 bux more and get the premium edition, You'll enjoy ur experience more
plus u'll look gay when ur goin over to ur buddys house to play xbox w/ him and ur the only one w/ a wired controller

Answer 3

For online play it would help out a whole lot to play this game. To simply play the game, you can go on without a hard drive, you just won't be able to save your progress and will have to start all over again if you turn the game off.

Answer 4

you can play wit the core, but u cant save, or u can buy a memory card and save with that, u dont hav to have the hard drive

Answer 5

you need to have a memory source someplace; otherwise, you received't have everywhere to load profiles from, or to maintain the game once you play besides. maximum each 360 recreation will require profiles and saving besides.

Answer 6

u need the hard drive

Answer 7

of course u need the hard drive
it is the main thing
