New xbox update.

It's a lot slower.

It seems to vary with everyone. For me, it's much faster, but for a few of my friends it seems to be slower.

Hah. I was talking to my friend, and I was like... "Wow, Xbox is like, strange..."
Conversation went on, he was asking things like "What do you mean?"
Me: "Is your Xbox hooked up to the internet?"
Him: "Yeah."
Me: "Go turn it on."
Him: "Why?"
Me: "To see what I'm talking about."
Minutes later.
Him: "Okay that thing started to download."
Minutes later.
Him: "Okay what did you slip into my drink?"
Me: "It was Microsoft I swear!"

Yes you can stick a game in your Xbox, and install it to the HDD.

You could always do that.

True, my and my brother used to have a Tales of Vesperia demo, and once we got the actual game, we deleted it :)

FYI: Installing games only improves the loading times on certain games. Other games like Halo 3 actually have increased load times from it.

Everyone's a single moron?

No. Anyone is a single moron. Not everyone.

And the xbox is quieter

Not really, because the games still read from the disk.

That would definently improve on Kingom Under Fire, the loading times are rather long. But then again, I would load fast and end up waiting for team members to load. Although sleeping is another story, although I rarely go to learn new skills.

CoD doesn't really need faster loading times.

Not sure about L4D.
