Do you really need an Xbox 360 hard drive to store this if you buy it?

I was thinking of buying this off arcade just today. Played the demo---loved it. However, I was reading on the xbox forums that the online is laggy and now that NO ONE plays online.

Can you find games without a problem and if so how laggy are they ?

[Mikels2000]

The problem is that they added a lag measure on the online games: if the counter passes 200 ms (miliseconds) that's where lag will start, so most players when they see a number upper than 200, they will leave.

[dusperz]

Well that's not too bad. No point in staying IF lag does start up.

What about finding games,(can you find a match after match) and how often do you run into 200MS+ games where people leave ?

[Mikels2000]

Like 4 lagged ones for each 10 games I used to play.

[dusperz]

That's about as good as Street Fighter 4's online lol, so no problem for me.

Do you recommend people buy it for 800 MS points or pass?(Sorry for the buncha questions... I'm just really on the fence on to get it or not. Don't want to regret it)

[Mikels2000]

If you really like the game or miss it since your Arcade closed down: Yes.

@dusperz Hard achievements, no one plays online. Get it if you want but I'd recommend just getting an emulator if you really want to play it.

@dusperz Worth it, even if you never play online.
