Hello to all members,
I've seen on the internet lately that people are quite frustrated that you will need 8gb of free space to play War Games in Halo 4. Such as myself, I have a 4gb Xbox 360 slim, which I kinda modded so that the my old Xbox FAT Hard drive could fit inside my slim. That's beside the point, here is an easy trick to play War Games with a 4gb console.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How-To
1. Go to an electronics store or digital device store (place that sells TVs, DVD recorders, Computers, ect) and buy a USB Memory Stick (Also known as a Universal Serial Bus)
2. Make sure the USB Memory Stick has a memory of 16gb. A 16gb USB Memory Stick is relatively cheap nowadays. In Australia they cost about 17 dollars.
3. Plug it into your xbox via the USB ports on the front or back of the console, and turn on your Xbox.
4. Press the home button, keep pressing RB until you reach the last tab, which should be settings.
5.Go into System Settings
6.Now go into Storage.
7. A list of all your storage devices will show up. The USB Memory Stick you just purchased should show up also, but you will not be able to use it yet.
8. Go to your device, it should be named "Memory Unit" and instead of pressing A, press Y. A list of options should show up.
9. Select "Format Device". You will now be prompted to select the amount of storage on the USB Memory Stick that will be reserved for Xbox memory.
10. After selecting, (make sure it's above 10 GB) your console will now do it's thing and convert the USB Memory Stick Memory Stick for you. Now, when you run Halo 4 and it asks you to instal the 8gb for War Games, choose the Memory Unit which you just formatted!
Now you may experience the epicness of Halo 4's War Games!

NOTE: If you remove the USB Memory Stick from your xbox, you will no longer be able to access War Games and it will ask you to instal the 8gb again, but if you plug it back in, it'll work again. Also, you can only format 16gb at a time. If you use a 32gb USB memory stick, it will only allow you to format 16gb. It may be useful to buy a second 16gb or even just an 8gb stick so that you are guaranteed enough space to download and save the Spartan Ops episodes and the War Games DLC when it releases.
That's the easiest and most affordable way to play War Games with a 4gb console. I already have my USB ready for when Halo 4 hits the shelves!
