Is it possible to move a save from the PC to the xbox?
If so, how do I do so?

I found this thread and think it might be what you're looking for. http://www.360haven.com/forums/showthread=17704-%5Btutorial%5D-how-fix-downloaded-save-game-work-xbox-360-pc.html#sthash.4tXyWyoS.dpbs I haven't tested it, so I don't know for sure. Try it and see, and if it doesn't work then come back and we'll figure something out.

Why not? Do you know what's keeping you from being able to?

Its possible with certain games that rely on the exact same content for the titles on PC and XBOX. example would be skyrim before all the different updates. the saves were interchangable. now if you try to move them with any added content, it gets messy. corrupt, etc. good luck!

Not sure, but a while ago I used an achievement unlocker on it, but I can't move it or delete it.

So what you're saying that if I have the same exact DLC, I should be able to do it?

Unfortunately, no. It's not just the DLC, but the games themselves go through updates. Whenever there's a bug to fix, the developers put out an update through Microsoft, and MS requires you to install those updates to use XBL. Especially with popular games (like Skyrim) it's difficult to know exactly which updates you have on the 360 version (since there are usually so many and none of them are marked). Aside from that, even if you do know exactly which updates to have for both versions, there's still a pretty high chance that there are differences between updates on either system (which would make the save incompatible anyway).
Your best bet is to clear your Xbox system cache (press Y on memory unit screen in Settings) and delete any DLC (be sure to play offline at first). Then transfer your PC save that way. You don't have to have your gamertag on your flash drive, it's just an easy way to quickly resign your save (I think Horizon is down right now anyway). As long as you know how to put in your own IDs for resigning, you should be fine.

Listen to these guys. I know if you change your save file to a .exs (XBOX 360 save) it can completely corrupt that file. I'm not quite sure how to change it safely otherwise.

Well I tried something last night, but it said that it's missing DLC, it looked that everything was the same and the same update, unless having the heads from the ULC makes a difference.
So they you say to clear my cache for the xbox and then try to move my save from the PC to the xbox?

I guess we should get this out of the way first. For which game are you trying to transfer a PC save over to Xbox?

I just noticed that I didn't say what game, what an idiot.
Any ways it's for Borderlands 2, PC to xbox.

Borderlands 2 is still being worked on I think. Your best bet would probably be to use a save editor on your 360 save.

There is no editor out at the present time for the 360. Willowtree2 is being worked on for this game but it is not out as of the time of this post. To mod your xbox save at this point is fairly complicated and only a few things can be changed. My advice is to wait for willowtree2 . there are lots of ways to mod your pc save but you probably know that already since you want to port it from pc to xbox. Sorry for the bad news.

That's nice and all, but I don't want your gamesave, I want mine.
Also I found out last night that it was indeed not (yet) possible, but there seems to be a save converter out that may work, but I haven't tried it out.

That's nice but that wasn't what I was talking about. On the 1st link there, is a program that allows you to do that. Maybe click the link and read?

Sorry, but I didn't see it.
So I downloaded python27 and made a folder named "bl2" in my c drive and moved the python folder into it and a save from the PC that I want to work for the xbox, the save is in the bl2 folder, but not the python folder. I've never been good with coding or whatever the hell this is, so what am I suppose to put to covert it from PC to xbox?

theres a video tut on the link I put now.

It looked like it was already an xbox save, it didn't help me understand how to convert it from PC to xbox, also the long pauses and no commentary didn't help.
The video wasn't helpful at all to me. Hopefully WT will be out in the next month or two.
