Question about copying games

giantoctopus69 · Jun 18, 2014

I might be in the wrong thread but, I was wondering is it possible to copy a saved game onto a memory card or stick? I was playing a game called Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 and after many days and hours of playing, the game corrupted while saving
and deleted my entire game. I just want to know if it is possible to copy a saved game to a card and then be able to transfer the saved game back to the hard drive if it corrupts again. I have an Xbox 360 Slim.

External Hard Drives

Yes.

If you wanna know if you can play your buddy's games by copying them on your external hard drive... that's another question.

copying saved game

Lol, why is that? It is better than buying a memory card

you can use cloud storage which keeps a copy on your hdd,

everything else will result in moving your savegame from one storage to the other.

Yes, you can format USB external storage (up to 32GB) for use with an Xbox 360, and can store save games (as well as actual games) on there. After every session you could simply copy across a save file (this has to be manual, it will not do this automatically)
and if the one on the HDD corrupts you have your backup.

Cloud storage is an alternative, but is only available to Gold members.

Digital copies work the same as the disc version. The data for the games themselves is separate from game saves, so using the digital copy vs. the disc will not affect anything else.

Yes you can play a game on disc whilst you are downloading a digital game at the same time. When the digital copy has downloaded enough for you to play it, it will tell you that it is ready to play. It will also tell you what part of the game hasn't finished
downloading if you try to play it, it's pretty straight forward once you get into it.

Hope this helps,

Yeah, you can install on the second Xbox One using the disc and if you are logged into that console, the game will be playable. You will not need to download it in that case.
