Gaming Rage installation question.

[test84]

Hi,

My console is a phat 20Gb premium and in order to have best texture performance for Rage, I've read that you have to install all 3 discs, even if you want to play singleplayer. So problem is my HDD has 13Gb free space at most (since Xbox takes 7Gb and uses it as cache), so is it possible to install two discs on my HDD and one of them on a flash memory attached to console?

-txn!

Dear god, I never knew you console users had it so bad o.o

I THINK it is, I am assuming Rage uses multi-disk loading? Like an intermission between disks? If so, you should be able to. I can have a game installed to the HDD, another to a flash drive, and another to an external HDD, and it picks the right game off of each one.

360 users. PS3 users have blu-ray, and consoles with decently sized HDD's if you do need the space.

*as I have 3 Xbox 360s sitting under my desk that I never use...*

>>Lol, computer gaming.

Edit - I do want a PS3 at some point though. Not right now, can't afford it -_-

If you are done with your hijacking my topic, AGAIN, let's get back to OP.

I'm pretty sure you can just install one disc at a time. When it's time to hit the next disc, uninstall the first, and install the second.

this is correct. there is no need to install all three discs at once. just play disc one until you're prompted to switch to disc 2, put in disc 2, save, delete disc 1 from HDD and install disc two.

Thanks guys but that's what Tom Willits says but in QuakeCon Keynote 2011, Carmack states that you have to either install all discs or none, it's all or nothing.

well, considering I own and have played through Rage while installing only the disc I was currently on I'd say Carmack was full of poo.
