1. Do xbox original games,arcade titles, themes and gamer picsstored on a 20gb transfer over flawlessly using the migration kit, or are there problems? I'm gonna get a new 120gb drive but I wanna make sure there won't be any loss of data.

2. Also how does your gamertag get transferred over? Are there any problems with account management being tied to the HDD it was originally on? Do you just migrate it over by recovering your tag, or does the migration kit take care of it?

Thanks guys!

1.-Arcade titles, themes, gamerpic all get transferred. Not sure about the "XBox originals" since i havent bought any, but i do know that the original game SAVES do NOT transfer over.

2.-Your gamertag will be transferred with everything else. No recovery needed. But you will have to be logged online to play anything you downloaded on the original harddrive.

So the MAJOR drawback is that gamesaves DON'T transfer over? That's ridiculous!! So I'd have to start everything again? Honestly, that's insane!

Only the original xbox game saves dont transfer over. All 360 game saves do. I also had issues with not all of my music transferring over.

Oh right, thank Jeebus I thought you meant 360 saves didnt transfer! What about if I were to transfer my Psychonauts save onto my memory stick I got with th 360, then copy it back over after the migration, would that preserve my save?

I dont think so. Go to your memory and look at your Psychonauts game save. I dont think theres an option to "copy" like with 360 games. At least none of my original xbox game saves did. I wanted to do that myself but there just isnt an option to copy, only to delete.
