Hasn't done me much good.

Look at the time I purchased my replacement 360 there wasn't a single title I was aware of that required an install. Apparently I should have seen the future and bought a several hundred dollar console all over again because it 'won't fail this time'.

100 for some extra memory in the HD? You serious?
Of course that was a poor purchase idea when presented. After the fact install-only games became more ordinary. At the time I couldn't have known Bf was install required.

I'm not going to go as far as ruling out buying another MS product, but I kinda ran into a similar situation very recently with my 360 Slim 4GB.

Turns out you cannot play the digital version of Halo CE on the 4GB 360 without buying an offical MS hard drive.

I assume now it is because there is no emulator software. What is ridiculous is that they still allow you do purchase and download it without a warning of any kind on the XBL marketplace.

Nothing crazy, but you would think they would let you know this somehow before purchasing.
