A questions about DLC

I know the title is not very specific...

Please read the whole thing so you don't think the topic is irrelevant to this section because i'm explaining it in detail.

I bought  "Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition" for $30.00 or $40.00 i think a month or 2 ago and it came with 2 disks, one is the game and one is the expansion but i have one problem which is i don't have a hard drive. I do have a 8GB USB stick and 2 of my friends said it should work, they were wrong...

I have an Xbox 360 slim with no hard drive (and i'm not planning on buying one because they're $130.00 and they only come in 250GB... Which REALLY pisses me off), and instead of using the disk to install the the expansion i wanted to try downloading it from the DLC store. 

I was wondering since i already have the expansion, is it possible for me download it from the store since i already have the expansion disk?

Because the disk just immediately comes up with an error when i run it on my xbox saying i need a hard drive and not an option to what device to store it in (which is what my friends said it should do). I'm pretty sure if i were to download it, it would let me put it in the USB stick.

If you were to download the content from the store you would have to pay for it again as you do not own the digital copy. Honestly if you look around online and even in some stores you can find the 360s 250GB hard drive for less than $100USD. Try Amazon and if you have one in your area GameStop. Both have had that item for around $80USD.

 

Even if you were to purchase and download the content from the store you would still get that error. There are certain games that need a physical hard drive, one of which the 4GB console does not have, that is a Flash Memory, in order to play the game. Black Ops and Halo are the same way as they have a Theater Mode that utilizes space on the hard drive.

nope need a HD

you should've opted for the xbox 360 s 250 gig unit  for 100dollars more would've saved ya 30bucks

elder scrolls and halo games and final fantasy 11 and certain other games do not have full functions without a hd
