Following a demo presentation at Games Convention in Germany today, Gearbox president Randy Pitchford confirmed that Borderlands -- his upcoming "Indiana Jones meets Mad Max" sci-fi four-player co-op first-person shooter -- will require a hard drive if players choose to play it on Xbox 360.
Because of the way the game procedurally generates everything from weapons to armor, Borderlands has different requirements from typical first-person shooters. "If it weren't for where the 360 and the PS3 have gone, with big hard drives, and lots of memory, and powerful processors, there's no way you can conceive of this as a console game," Pitchford said.
When asked about recent mixed statements from Microsoft about whether a game that requires a hard drive will be allowed on 360, Pitchford confirms that such a release is possible. "I don't know if [Microsoft is] gonna complain about that, and I don't want to be in the middle of a controversy there, but you need space," he said.
