Xbox 360: Play Games From Hard DriveXbox 360: Play Games From Hard Drive
Major Nelson outlined some of the new features coming to Dashboard and the Xbox 360. Besides the avatar feature, which is cute, we’re going to have the ability to install games directly to the hard drive and play them.
This feature explains the recent press release about the 60GB Xbox 360 and the price drop on the old 20GB box. Once we can install on our hard disk we’re going to be able to watch our disk space fade away just like we can do, today, on our PC.
You’re going to need to keep the disk in the drive, however, to play the Xbox 360 games you’ve purchased. This will continue to be Microsoft’s solution to Digital Rights Management (DRM) with their console. The end goal, however, is a faster load and a much quieter gaming experience as the 360 DVD player is tremendously loud.
Pretty soon this system is going to be no better than a PC if it keeps getting features like this!
Episode 346: Back PainsEpisode 346: Back Pains
Paul wasn’t able to make it for this podcast thanks to a hospital trip due to back pains, but Jordan and Jonah get into it a little themselves. They also avoid the predictable April Fool’s gags since even though the episode was recorded April 1, it wasn’t going to air until 2 days later. This week’s Gaming Flashback is Ubisoft’s first person shooter Far Cry.
The news this week includes:
- EA deletes nasty Wii U April Fools’ tweets
- Indies praise Xbox One self-publishing – but Microsoft must drop its launch parity policy
- Uncharted 4 game director leaves Naughty Dog
Also included is Listener Feedback and the Question of the Week, “What was your favorite videogame-related April Fool’s joke?”
Episode 338: Movie TalkEpisode 338: Movie Talk
Sorry for the delay – last week Jordan had a medical emergency, but he’s all better now. In this episode, he and Jonah get sidetracked at one point talking about movies and the film At World’s End.
The actual videogame news they discuss include:
- Nintendo evaluating new business, “studying” smart devices
- Microsoft paying YouTubers for Xbox One mentions
- Star Wars 1313 trademark abandoned
- Sony creating new PS3 hardware for PS Now
This and a little Listener Feedback. This week, we’re looking for you to ask us questions.
