Just to clear something up

In order to play multiplayer, spartan OPS, or forge it is REQUIRED that I install the disc to the Hard drive? I can’t play the multiplayer right off the second disc?

You need to install mate

That is correct, you have to install disk 2.

you need to install it then the second disk is useless

Who the -Yoink- thought that up? sO now I have to buy another harddrive? Looks like I won’t be playing online for a while. :confused:

If you had been listening to the halo news, you would know that it takes about 8gb. They said it months before it even released.

Get a USB key.
