rockstar advises not to install gta5 on 360, as it causes slowdowns.
it has been reported that installing it on a usb drive fixes this problem.

Well fuck, I just picked it up for 360. Thanks for the heads-up, Emka...

Well, they're advising not installing the play disc. Apparently it comes on a play disc and an install disc. You are supposed to install the install disc (could even be that this is mandatory).

it is. the install disc contains all of the global assets like the city layout, textures, etc. the play disc has the missions and voice work n stuffs.
you can install them both but then you're forcing the 360 to read from two places on the HDD intermittently.
by using an install disc and a play disc Rockstar got around that by having the 360 read from two devices in tandem. pretty smart were it not for the noise.

I had to clear out a ton of crap out of my HD just to install the 1st disk... installing the second wasn't gonna happen anyway.

In all honesty I simply haven't had time to visit this place as much anymore. I stopped doing remote support work and I'm doing desk side work now. It keeps me pretty busy.
Back to GTA, I gotta say the offroad areas in this game are fucking amazing.

Well, don't get too smug.
You're still a dumbass cunt, where I'm concerned.

I know, what's remarkable is I'm probably the smartest person here. I just have huge character flaws.

Offroad is freaking awesome! Who wants to bet there's a breaking bad reference somewhere in this biatch?
