    Unable to play/ save Mass Effect 2 games on Xbox One


    I can start a new game, and before trying to resolve, I could import my ME1 character. Now it plays through the startup story, bet the net result is the same:

    When I need to save, I cannot save to cloud (the only option available) because there are some pending uploads from another Xbox console. Since that is not in user anymore/accessible, that is no option...

    How do I get to play again (with the ability to save)?

    I have tried these (at least) options (some several times):

    • delete content (some 10 MB thing in the ME2 menu) for ME2 and restart the game
    • delete local files in general
    • restart console
    • download and install all known expansions to the "new" console
    • delete local profile on Xbox

    None of this made any difference - what to do?

    :)

    Mass Effect Game Save Doesn't Show On Xbox 360 from Xbox One

    Hi, the issue is to do with the game itself. On the Xbox 360, the game always saved the last save to the xbox 360's cache, and if you emptied the cache the save would also get deleted. I'm assuming that Mass Effect has done something similar on the Xbox
    One. Your only option is to play the game again on the xbox 360 from the save you have, then finish the game, Mass Effect should then save again at the end of the game, and you should be able to import it to Mass Effect 2.

    Potentially corrupted HDD?

    if u still got mass effect 2 disk, go to import mass effect 1 chart save,...what puzzles me is that i lost all my mass effect 1 saves files 3 years ago (broken xbox and formate the hard drive and sold it and got halo xbox) before mass effect 2 came out...so
    i wanted to play mass effect 2, so i poked at import chart saves, and found i had mass effect 1save, so i imported it and found that it had the choices i had made. were the same. so i think mass effect 3 might find ur lost saves. and pop in mass effect 2
    and try the import save if u lost ur mass effect saves

    Mass Effect 2 PC to Xbox 360

    voteDC thank you for the reply. I think I'll just wait and play Mass Effect 3.

    The reason I asked my original question is because I played Mass Effect 2 for Xbox first, then I got the PC version through a BioWare promotion so I played it on PC as well. Now I no longer have the Xbox version and I prefer the game save from my PC version
    (better choices in my opinion). I also have not played Mass Effect 1 and was hoping to get the cheaper PC version, play Mass Effect 2 on PC, then import the saves to Xbox.

    That doesn't seem likely to happen now, so I'll stick with the mediocre save I have on the Xbox and hopefully I won't mind much since I will be too busy playing Mass Effect 3.

    Mass Effect 2 PC to Xbox 360

    No sorry it is not possible to transfer your mass effect 2 pc game save to your xbox 360, for the purposes of carrying on the game in mass effect 3

    AARRGGHGH accidently deleted my ME2 saved games, any way to recover??

    [quote user="BlackSilverAce"]

    I don't know about ME3, but completed saves I deleted from Mass Effect still carried over to Mass Effect 2.

    [/quote]That's because Mass Effect Select Existing ID/ import saves are not game saves. Whereas in Mass Effect 2 you import any save from after the Suicide Mission.
