Do I need a memory card?

[Wolf1171]

I haven't opened my Xbox yet, still waiting for Xmas. But, was wondering whether or not I should get a memory card. I know you can sometimes save games to the HD, but wasn't sure if a memory card may be required for some games?

Nope not at all....

Well actually you would need a memory card if you wanted to transfer a saved game to your mate's Xbox - but other than that you can save all your games onto the HD.
