:lol @ the Astyanix box art. They must have gotten that text from a GameFAQs review. It's pretty much telling anyone who is buying it that it's a tedious hack & slash game.
It runs worse off the hard drive, beacuse it's ALREADY using it to cache files. That's why it's optimezd for hard drive. If you want to check it out go play game with and without hdd in your 360.
Couldn't find a pic of the actual box. This is an ad, but I've read that the same quote is actually on the back of the game box. How a Halo comparison is supposed to entice a poker player, is beyond me.
