I was afraid when the 360 launched that we would only get games tailored to the lowest common denominator, the Core system. This potential concept would mean that we wouldn’t get games that made extensive use of the Hard Drive option since not all users would have it. Apparently that is not going to be the case. Ars is carrying a story that Sega’s [i]Football Manager 2006[/i] is going to require the HD and it says so on the box. I think this is great and I can’t wait to see what potential is unlocked by more developers making use of the premium level features. The nice thing is that Core owners can always shell out the $99 to get the HD. With console prices still in the stratosphere, $99 on top of the Core system isn’t all that much.
