Off hand, 1 Gigabyte is equal to 1048576 Kilobytes - whereas most games are a few GB large.

I'm not sure of the veracity of the question if an Xbox 360 game is really 460kb as I know for a fact there are games that are multiple gigabytes. However, if there is a mini-game, with low level music and graphics I'm sure that it may be able to fit under a megabyte. However extremely limited.

Actually, my brother explained this one to me. When you play an XBox 360 game, you don't install it to the hard-drive. Only the save file is on the hard drive, which is 460 kilobytes. When you play a PC game, on the other hand, it has to be installed to the hard drive, which takes whatever size all the files add up to be, usually ~8 gigs.
