Fable II is one of many games that you'll see
improvement on after you install it to the HDD.

If you are like me, you don't have a huge hard drive in your Xbox 360, so you have to pick carefully which games you want to install. Most games take around 5-6 GB in space, so if you have one of the smaller 20GB hardd rives, you'll probably only fit three games on it and still have room for save files and downloaded games.

How to install games to your Xbox 360 hard drive.

Here are some of the best games to install on your Xbox 360 hard drive and how much space they take to install:

• Assassin's Creed (6.7 GB) - Improves load times
• The Darkness (6.8 GB) - Faster load times
• Devil May Cry 4 (6.7 GB) - Reduces loading times
• Fable II (6.8 GB) - Helps lag, reduces home village loading time.
• Fallout 3 (5.9 GB) - Game environments load twice as fast.
• Head Coach 09 (6.0 GB) - Eliminates lag from menus during games
• The Last Remnant (12.7 GB) - Reduces lag and load times throughout game.
• Mirror's Edge (5.7 GB) - Helps eliminate pauses throughout game.
