Using a memory card (not HD) on games..like forza, etc

[Tiggsy]

I need to be abke to swap my profile between various xboxes in the house so want to put it on a MU card. Now, with something like forza i assume i'll need to copy my game saves to it in order to keep my cars....so will they fit on the poxy little cards MS do? I assume the track (and track downloads) can remain on the HD and just my garage/game progress on the MU.....will i fill it quickly or is that data pretty small?

I use a memory card to transport my profile and forza game saves.

I Had a 64MB MU that I used for my profile & forza 2, there was 8MB leftover after this. I would Imagine Forza 3 would fit on a 64MB with a profile.

I bought a 512MB MU so I could carry my profile with FM2 & FM3 saves. There is tons of room left.

I installed the game to both Xbox HDD's and downloaded all content to both HDD's and it works fine like this.

Cool...it was a 512 card i was looking at so that sounds perfect as i can fit MW2 on there as well then....was worried those file sizes may be huge.

Nah, the HDD takes the brunt of it, the save is only a list of cars and settings + vinyls on cars (even those are a few kb each) & current progress in the game, no more than a 10-30MB

I think I have 380MB left of the 512MB, and there are quite a few saves on it.
