So as I posted a while ago I've been playing Hitman Absolution, and while I love it, twice now the game has crashed and corrupted my save. I'm playing on 360, and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to avoid this issue. would using cloud saves help, or should I be using a USB drive or something?
You can back up saves to either a USB memory stick or to the cloud if you have Xbox Live Gold. Let the game read and write saves to the hard drive as usual. Periodically (e.g. when you're done playing for the day) go to the Xbox Dashboard and bring up System Settings. Select Storage Devices > Hard Drive > Games > Hitman Absolution. Pick the saved game and copy it to any device other than the hard drive.
If your game crashes again, repeat the steps above except copy the save from the USB/cloud back to the hard drive.

ok, I think I can do that if I can find that usb i got a while ago.
I once again got up to the point where it started crashing and then just replayed previous levels, so I'm ready to go ahead with this. Thanks!
