    Just got this game and I am loving it so far. But I was wondering if it is possible to install both discs onto the HD so I won't have to switch them out while playing. thanks

    Unless the game is specifically designed to not use disc 2 after installing (like Forza 3) you will still have to swap discs like you normally would.

    This is exactly right, but you shouldn't have to switch them out more than a couple of times, if I remember correctly.

    Disc 2 is the meat of the game. Disc 1 is the beginning and the end. So only 2 switches.

    That's unfortunate, I was hoping it was similar to Forza 3. Oh well it's good to hear there isn't too much switching thanks guys

    On a side note I was pleased that they did it this way. I was expecting to have to swap out the disc mid cinematic halfway through the game.
     
    Anyways its already been answered but installing the discs to your 360 HD will do little to nothing.
