You stated that you have an Xbox 360 slim, is it the 4GB internal flash drive one or the 250\320GB internal HDD? I ask because having the internal 250 or 320GB drive is mandatory for BF4 and it will not install on the 4GB model. You can see that both EA and Activision has this restriction for BF4 and Ghosts that launched at the same time.

If you have the 4GB model you can simply purchase a used HDD from a store like GameStop or via Amazon rather inexpensively, remove the right side cover and literally slide the HDD into the 360 without any tools involved and then you'll be able to install BF4.
