  You should really re-phrase the title of this article, I was lead into thinking that Call of Duty 4 was going to be unable to be played unless you had a Hardrive which would be a big bummer, however reading the article makes me believe this is only the case for the BETA demo? I'm confused.
  
  Kru Edit: I've amended the title, hopefully that's better. I've also added a line at the end of the article, that really says the question that the title was meant to ask.

  You even said so yourself that the BETA requires a hard drive (duh) and yet you fail to mention this in your title and opening paragraph, VERY misleading.

    The real point of the article is the small bit of information that says you'll want to have more than two gigabytes free on your hard drive if "you don’t want HD to chug at all".

      I know what the real point of the article was. But it doesn't neglect the fact it was both conflicting and misleading. But it's been corrected. :thumbs:

  Wouldn't you figure that if the BETA requires the hard drive for the full HD experience...then the Game sure as hell would? Do you think that magically the full experience will be on the disk or something?

    Well yeah one would assume what you are saying is correct but remember we are not game developers and we are probably unaware of ways to resolve this problem for the final copy of the game.
    
    I don't know if there is a way, I'm just making an assumption.

  Hi All
  The point I was trying to make in the article was that, yes, of course you need a harddrive to play the demo, but while the demo needs 1.7 gb, they tell you to have at least 2 otherwise "HD will chug." I think they are using the extra little bit on the (the extra .3 gb the recommend) hard drive to decompress some of the files used in HD playback. It's just my thought on it. But continuing on that thought, then it is reasonable to assume that the hard drive will also be used in the final game to hold some decompressed HD functions so that it will all run smooothly.
  I may be wrong though, so if I am, then please correct me.
  
  And on a positive note, This site is great. Lots of good stuff and the comments, at least this one, aren't full of flaming

    Wouldn't it take forever to download the demo? 1.7 GBs! It will probably be an over night thing. It takes a while just to update the system's drivers etc.

  You need to have a hard drive to play the full experience of this game, that is a bit of a kicker for the people who dont have the space available.

    We don't know that yet, it was just said that you need a hardrive for the demo, which is quite obvious really as your not going to get a 1.7gb memory card for the 360 are you?
