MTV Multiplayer: Microsoft's Shane Kim Updates Us On Peter Jackson 'Halo,' Re-Thinking 'Games For Windows' And More

MTV Multiplayer writes: "When I had dinner with Microsoft's Shane Kim and Kudo Tsunoda on Monday, we talked about more than just "Gears of War 2."

Kim is the head of Microsoft Game Studios and therefore a guy worth peppering with any gaming questions I could think of related to the Xbox 360's Microsoft-published efforts.

Here's some of what I asked him between bites of fish:

Q: When will Microsoft make a game that requires and takes advantage of the Xbox 360's hard-drive?

A: "You're not likely to see a first party title that does that," Kim said. I suggested that Microsoft had to have reached a point by now when the company could assume a large number of Xbox 360 owners have the drive. And surely the upcoming "Grand Theft Auto IV" downloadable content will require it. But still, Kim said he believed the games from MGS should be playable on all Xbox 360s and that it's a software maker's challenge to get the games to work without a hard drive."
