Do you need to buy a hard drive for a Xbox 360?

Answer 1

yes. you need a Xbox 360 hard drive to do anything on an xbox 360. the only thing you can do without one is turn the console on. you can't play games without it either

I think the above is advertising

WRONG

u dont need the hdd for everything you only need it for Xbox live. u can play on games and stuff but simply no xbox live or saving the game unless u get a memory card

ACTUALLY

you DO NOT need a hardrive to access X BOX live. You simply need a memory stick. However; having a harddrive is highly recomended. Having a harddrive allows you to save your games and you actually need a harddrive to play backwards compatible games from the original x box. If you are looking into buying your first X 360 I recomend buying a 360 Arcade. It is a 360 without a harddrive, it comes with 256mb space of memory. It is only $199. If you wish to add a harddrive to it, you can go to your local used game store such as GameStop or if you are lucky enough to live near one, I recomend getting one from a PLay N Trade. Normally a harddrive will cost you about $40. But all in all you DO NOT need a harddrive to access and play in X BOX Live.

Answer 2

We it depends on what you are going to do on the xbox. If you ate just going to watch movies and play game then no. Note that you can't save your game progress , download new Add- on for the game such as new maps. Then there are the costly Price of buying a hard drive from retailers since they only carry the 120 gb $120.

Answer 3

Yes you must have a hard drive, If your going to be putting lots of things on it I would recommend a 60 gb if your just playing games 20gb.

Answer 4

you must have a hard drive to play on xbox live. It saves your account info such as bank acct., passwords, email, etc.

Answer 5

no you don't need a hard drive but it is recommended because if you have no hard drive you cant save your games

Answer 6

No, The Xbox Can Work But You Will Have No Memory To Save Games, Saves Etc.

Answer 7

No. A hard drive is not required to play games on an Xbox 360.

Answer 8

No but it helps if you do have a hard drive for the x box. You wont be able to save your games without the hard drive unless you buy a memory card. You will not be able to use x box live.
