You tell us. How would we know whether you have a memory card or not?

Again, we don't know whether you heard that.

Is there a FAQ or something that you guys can help?

There is a FAQ, indeed, but I'm not certain if we can actually help and/or assist it.

btw.. can you save game files on external hard drive?

No.


Now, if you honestly want answers to your queries please try using decent sentences.

No, you can't save to your PC.
Yes, there is a FAQ. Several actually, pinned at the top of this forum. I think you'll find it hard to miss (a second time, that is).

Sorry for the broken english I got alil excited about the Xbox. I bought mine used so it did not come with the memory card, I heard from someone that they said if you can connect your PC to your Xbox then you can save ur game files on the PC, ( which I don't think will work). Thx for the response I guess I should just go out and spend that extra $50 for the memory card which I don't really think is worth it.

You might be interested to know that there is a way to remove/put on gamesaves to the HDD via an adapter, which may be what you've heard of, but this unfortunately won't do what you had in mind.

I'd like to suggest that rather than spend 40 or so bucks on 64 megs worth of storage you spend a bit more and get the full HDD unit. Gamesaves, backwards compatiblity, and more for far, far fewer pennies per MB.

Give it some thought.

I agree completely. With a memory unit you can more or less only get savegames onto it due to the small memory size. If you go for a HDD instead you can store alot more gamesaves but also enable you to dowload gamedemos/trailers/movies from the Live! service. I also "think" the backwards compatible game updates are stored on HDD and also games can cash data on the HDD thus speeding up loading times. So as you see, a HDD has many more uses that only storing gamesaves and its well worth the money imo.

Yea Thanks alot guys, I think I'll fork over the extra funds for the HDD drive. I just heard something and I thought it was worth a shot to at least ask. I have to say tho, I had many doubts about the Xbox360 when it first came out, but now that I have it, it has changed my view in regards with this gaming system.

Thank you
