Not All The Improvment For 360 Update Are For LooksDate: Saturday, July 19 @ 09:18:41 UTC If you have an XBOX 360 (and i know you do if your reading this) then you will really want to read this one over and might find your self reading it twice like i had too, keep in mind it did say that no real source was given for this info so it would be best to keep this as a "we will see kind of thing"  According to Gamespot, Microsoft’s supposedly seen a 30 percent improvement in load times on games installed to the 360 hard drive, although no direct source is given. From the article: "One of the not-so-cosmetic changes in the fall update will be the ability to let you play your games directly from the hard disk. The new feature will let users install all of the game content directly onto the hard drive to improve game load times. Microsoft reports that it has seen a 30 percent improvement in load times in internal testing. As an interesting data point, Microsoft went out of its way to tell a group of reporters that the full Devil May Cry 4 hard disk installation took roughly 10 minutes on the Xbox 360. The installation took twice as long when we conducted our own installation tests on the PlayStation 3. Another side benefit of having games installed on the hard disk is reduced noise, since the optical disc no longer needs to spin up. However, you will still need to have the game disc in your optical drive while you’re playing it, presumably as a piracy check." I would say this is some of the biggest news i have seen in some time now, if it holds true. News-Source: uk.gamespot.com |
