Bollocks.
The situation is clear, EVERYONE knows as it has been a stick to beat the 360 with since 2005 that the Arcade cheapest 360 has no HDD, it was called the Tard pack, how apt in this case
The memory bundled with the Arcade model has changed from none, to 64mb external, to 256mb internal and now to 4gb internal. So the amount has been upgraded at least 3 times in the last five years.
There have always been certain games that didn't work at all or had features restricted if you didn't have a HDD, including some co-op and backwards compatability, this has previously been very clear on the box (Crackdown, Burnout Paradise).
I would say that it ISN'T clear on the Halo Reach Box and that is wrong and I don't know why they have changed it.
As for not knowing the Arcade model didn't have a HDD and expecting a 4gb HDD in a new machine in 2010 well that's a mix of not doing your homework and a bit of stupidity, if Sony announced a 4gb PS3 today you'd think eh?
We're talking about a situation that has applied to the Arcade model for 5 years, so that's why I'm surprised people who frequent a Games Forum aren't aware of this, how this makes me a "wanker" I'm not sure but not surprised the mods let that one slip.
So yes the box of the game should be more clear and before you buy something you should do some research that the product does what you want.
