I didn’t want to emulate the games on a PC, I am more interested in just backing up the hard drive and easily transferring the games between drives when/if needed.

The xSata looks like it might do the job but it sounds like the file system is a little complicated with alpha/numerically coded directories instead of simple directory names representing either the game or the game saves.

I’ll see if I can get more info on it and see if it will do what I’m looking for but this is a good start. Thanks!

I have a 120Gb hard drive and I’m not anywhere near filling it up but I wanted to know what my options were if I were to start downloading video or if I start to fill it up.

I’m a little bit of a digital pack rat and like to keep what I downloaded even if it’s demo or crapware. But if I can’t keep it because of space constrictions the crapware goes first but I wanted to find out if there are other options…

I didn’t sell my 20Gb drive yet so if I really had to I can use that as extra storage but I wouldn’t be able to play or use what I’ve saved on the 120….

[Xbox] Original video content coming to Xbox Live

http://feeds.joystiq.com/~r/weblogsinc/joystiq/~3/261268075/

Filed under: Microsoft Xbox 360, Online

Microsoft has announced that Hollywood producer/talent producer Peter Safran has signed a deal with the company to produce original content for Xbox Live (via The New York Times). The first shows will scripted (i.e. not reality shows), run under 10 minutes in length and are expected to come out in the Fall.

Said Scott Nocas, Xbox Live's global marketing manager for programming: "We definitely look at this as the first of many." The shows, according to Safran, will be exclusive to the service for a time and might then appear elsewhere. Safran also said that some of the content would be supported by advertising.

As noted by the NYT, Safran represents Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, Nia Vardolos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) and the directors of Epic Movie. Safran said he expects to recruit "established filmmakers" but was not planning to seek out major movie stars.

[Xbox] Army of Two demo coming to 360 tomorrow, some DLC info dropped

http://feeds.joystiq.com/~r/weblogsinc/joystiq/~3/261351270/

Filed under: Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, Action

After you've finished covering your toilet in plastic wrap before a loved one uses it (always hilarious), you can do some April Fool's Day unwinding tomorrow with a demo for Army of Two hitting Xbox Live. According to producer Matt Turner, the demo will include the training area of the game as well as the first level, which should should give you plenty of time to fist pound to your heart's content.

For those of you who've already picked up the game, Turner details some of the forthcoming DLC, saying, "1 new multiplayer map arriving as well as 2 new campaign maps in the not too distant future." Sounds great ... now, how about that little regional lockout problem?
