How would one go about this? I've got lots of car pics in Forza that I want on my PC.

Cheers.

You have to buy a docking station for the 360 harddrive. (http://www.amazon.com/Xport-Xbox-Drive-Docking-Station/dp/B000PEPML8) :o(

crazy deal (http://cgi.ebay.com/Xbox-360-XPORT_W0QQitemZ320202768411QQihZ011QQcategoryZ1225 17QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQtrksidZp1638.m118.l1247 QQcmdZViewItem)

My idea: Invest in something useful, like a 2.5" external hard drive and save screenshots to that. Save the Xbox drive for the stuff that really needs it (Live downloads, since they can't go on USB drives) and transfer that way.

unless you have the elite... I download TONS of demos and delete the ones that suck... I still haven't got passed 30gigs used.

Is there no way to plug in a flash drive/external drive and just do that? =p

LOL good point, everything suggested is way harder than it needs to be.

I have no idea though, I guess you could try it and see what works? I don't see why it wouldn't. If not, just put them on your MP3 player and transfer that way.

I was gonna try that soon -- huzzah for the Creative Zen's "Flash Disk" feature that lets you use it as an external drive...

gotta hold off a few though, mom's watching tv =p

turns out the 360 has to upload them to forzamotorsport.net where you can download them... what a PITA...

I got the pics, though. Dead smexy.

I doubt it will work.
It could possibly though.

Flash drives or mp3 players have drivers that make them work with pcs. Even though 360's are made by microsoft they probably made them not compatible.
I'm sure there is a way but it might not be as easy as that. Do some research.
There are tons of xbox modding sites around.

This is a pretty good one...

Edit:ok fixed the problem haha.
I was too late to respond. sry.

1st: the 360 is compatable with some mp3 players, mine is one.

2nd: the 360 is compatible with ALL flash drives, which my mp3 player can feign (you'd have to own one to get it).

3rd: yeah, problem solved already.

yes they go to that detail

(I was braking hard for a corner)

if you watch them as you accel/brake, you can watch them cool down and heat up

it's really cool

I'm not really into racing games (except Burnout) but Forza always looked like a great game. I'm really pumped to get a 360 soon and play it.

I was intimidated when I first played it because it was crushingly hard compared to burnout and the like, but you adjust and it's tooooons of fun. You can do so. freakin'. much. in this game, it's crazy.
