Microsoft: Every game will work with every system, but some require a hard drive

Recommended Videos

Amidst growing concerns among Xbox 360 Core unit owners regarding the “Hard Drive Required” stickers, Microsoft is setting the record straight … or confusing us even further. In a statement to GamePro, a Microsoft spokesperson attempts to clear things up by talking in circles.

“Every game will work with every Xbox 360 system,” a Microsoft spokesman told GamePro when asked about the “Hard Drive Required” sticker. “But just like some games will require you to have a Memory Unit to save games, some games will require you to have a Hard Drive to experience them.”

So what he’s trying to say is that gamers who purchased the hard drive-less Core unit shouldn’t have a problem playing all current and future games. However, they may not be able to play them unless they have a hard drive. So some games will require a hard drive.

In conclusion: All Xbox 360 games will be able to work on all Xbox 360 units, as long as they have hard drives. Is that your final answer, Microsoft?
