Rockstar advises owners of GTA V on 360 not to install the “play” disc
GTA V ships on two discs on Xbox 360, the first of which, the “install” disc, is the only one required to be installed. The installation weighs in at just over 7GB. Some fans were expecting to also install the second disc for better performance, but apparently that’s not the case.
The publisher said to expect more details at launch.

Cyimking Is it me... or does the game graphics doesn't look that good? Maybe it's just people's videos making it look bad... but the grass just looks sooo bad.
Exactly what I thought. The graphics look absolutely abysmal for a game that's been so hyped in this generation of free roam games.

I always install the games I play on my Hard drive just so my Xbox isn't running as hard.
It'll be interesting to see what they say once it's released cause I want to have it installed on my HDD.

VisionaryMGMTDr-J-DeanoBreading why should we not install it, I want more info rockstar
I think it's more towards people that have the game and think that you have to install both discs to be able to play whereas you only need to install the one.
Yea, you can go ahead and install it if you want to.
There's a bit of texture issues and such. Do not install the play disc.
yup there are grap issues and this is i am guessing the only reason they said that

Thanks for this! I noticed this in a stream earlier and was wondering why that was happening.

Medion Installing both of them means the HDD has to read two "discs" at the same time, causing the HDD to have issues loading textures and what not, while if you just install the install disc then you have the HDD + Disc spinning therefore the HDD can do all of the install disc and the disc can do all of the textures. Making it much much faster.
That can't be the issue because Halo 4 has 2 discs....
