How to download Xbox 360 games for free (no JTag). How to play Xbox 360 Games off a Flash drive! How to download Xbox 360 Games to usb and play. For Xbox 360 on the Xbox 360, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Installing games to USB drive instead of hard drive'. This may be a really 'bad' question per se, but if you download a game from Games On Demand, can you ever transfer the content to a USB so you can play it on a different 360?
I see so many different answers about this I'm not sure which is true, so I'd like to ask:
Can I save my Xbox 360 games to a USB drive for safe keeping?
I'm selling my Xbox 360 slim and my collection of games :( It was a tough decision, but I haven't played it in 6 months. Any gaming I do now is on my Apple devices or PS3/computer. Anyway, I just bought this slim about 6 months ago so I decided to put it on eBay, along with all the games, controllers, accessories, etc...
The bidding ends tomorrow and I plan on clearing the hard drive for the new owner, but I want to make sure I back up my save games; some of them go all the way back to the Xbox 360 release. I want to back them up to save them in case I ever want to play these games in the future. I'm not interested in downloaded content or games, just the save games.
Can I do this without buying a memory card?

Yup, you can actually use up to a 16GB USB Storage Device for use with your XBox 360, assuming it has the software update that went out in Spring of 2010:
- Connect the USB device to a USB port on your console.
- Go to My Xbox, and then select System Settings.
- Select Memory.
- On the Storage Devices screen, select USB Storage Device.
- Configure the storage device. You have two options for configuring your USB storage device for Xbox data storage:
- Erase all existing data, and configure the entire USB storage device.
- Configure some (but not all) of the USB storage device's memory (up to 16 GB).
For more information, have a look at the how-to guide on the XBox website: -->http://support.xbox.com/en-us/Pages/xbox-360/how-to/usb-flash-drive.aspx
Billy ONeal asked why there's an arbitrary 16GB limit. The official FAQ doesn't really address this, but instead tells you how grateful you should be ;-)
Why does Xbox 360 only support 16GB of storage, even though I have a much larger device?
Supporting USB storage devices up to 16GB in size is a huge increase in storage over any solid state memory storage solutions currently available for Xbox 360. Users that need more storage have options in the Xbox 360 hard drives, which are available for purchase separately.

However, it should be noted that you can use up to two USB Storage Devices, for a maximum of 32GB total size.
