    Profiles, saved games, copying etc

    Is there any way I can copy saved games etc from one profile to another?

    Although I've been using XNA since 1.0, I only got a 360 late last year; prior to that I was developing Windows games with XNA. To cut a long story short (i.e. due to my incompetence), I've been using a different profile on the 360 than my HadesSpaniel one. If possible, I'd like to transfer my saved games over. I suspect I can't as there's all the gamer points and achievements that goes along with it, but you never know.

    You can copy save games using a memory unit. The target profile that copies them "in" will become owner of the games. However, the text that talks about this says that those save games will *not* allow you to earn achievements or gamerpoints anymore.

    Thanks Jon. I also found last night that you can copy the saved games across profiles without needing a memory unit but the same restriction applies - you get a warning informing you that you cannon continue to earn achievements or gamerpoints for that copy any more.

    At least I'm only 1/3rd the way into Assassins Creed. Burnout Paradise is another matter tho.
