new 256mb meomory cards could mean bigger games

[Raisedbyflames]

if 256mb is the limit we could see bigger games made for arcade, 64mb is the limit right now i remember hearing that peopleare not allowed a higher size than 64mb.

this is pure speculation on my part but we could see some biggergames on the arcade which will always be good news

Mmmm. I'm pretty sure the limit is 50 MB. I'm not sure why MS picked this arbitrary number. They'll say that much larger than that is impractical for distributing content, but they have no problem with serving up 500 MB demos for free. I think we'll eventually see Arcade titles beyond that 50 MB point, but it won't be timed with a 256 mem card. Microsoft occasionally has these strange, frustrating disconnects.

isnt the price difference between this and the 20gb gonna be like $30? so its just a bit stupid really

256mb > 20gb $30 = silly

The only question I have is, why would you want bigger Xbox Live Arcade games? they seem to be a suitable size although I don't have much experience here, they seem to be able to fit alot for what they are given and provide a valid source of entertainment at that.

I don't see any developers or others coming out askking for more room, I could be wrong.

bigger game size could = Goldeneye :cool:

i think thats why they said they cant/wouldnt release it (although it is only 64mb or around there)

[Raisedbyflames]

yeah but imguessing goldeneye = 150-200 mb once they tweek thegraphics and boost it to hd and have xbl support for 4+plusplayers, might have 8 player goldeneye on xbl

[phatmuther]

i couldnt give a crap if it was tweaked graphically, just release the bloody thing! :D

[Raisedbyflames]

how great wouldit be if it had xbox live support, i think it would beatop seller

[phatmuther]

definatly, it would have to have live support, and if they priced it well, 800 points, it would sell no end of copies, instantly

[Killer 57]

That would be awesome, I can already imagine it, Complex, proximity mines, it almost beings a tear to my eye.

[derekm91]

that would be cool
