Halo 4 requires 'at least' 8GB flash drive, hard drive 'recommended'

4.6
As seems to be becoming tradition for the series, Halo 4 will require quite a bit of storage to play. Specifically, Xbox.com notes that players will need "at least an 8GB USB flash drive or an Xbox 360 Hard Drive" in order to play Halo 4's multiplayer mode. Furthermore, the hard drive option is "highly recommended" for those seeking an "optimal" experience.

We've contacted Microsoft to see what differences there will be between each option – and exactly what is meant by the fairly all-encompassing term "multiplayer" – but, in the meantime, one thing is clear: in the off chance that you might want to play some Halo 4 multiplayer, you'll need some storage to do it.

Good thing I bought a 120GB hard drive last year. Wow 8GB of Space my old hard drive only had 20GB o.O

Ether the game will be massive and possibly have many destructible objects or (my theory) the designers put all of there time in designing abstract, useless, and basic elements. I'm also kinda sure Microsoft said it had to be more than 4gb, so people with the most basic Xbox would have to buy a hard drive to use it. But then again maybe 343, a company who has never produced a game of there own before, will surprise us with the most advanced game of the year (almost died of laughter when typing this)

Well, the 213 Gigs left on my Xbox should be able to handle that.

That sucks. I wanted my friend to get this game but he only has a 4GB xbox, but hopefully this means there will be a lot of stuff in the game
