Players who own a copy of a game that doesn't work properly on their system (perhaps owing to compatibility issues, bugs that were never resolved by the developer, or a defective copy of the game) can sometimes find game saves uploaded by users who don't experience the bug. Bug WorkaroundsĪnother type of game save that is popular for many games is the bug workaround. It can be amusing watching the other characters in the game world scurry around like ants before the awesome might of your invincible character. These kinds of game saves are made for people who might have a 'serious' save that they use for role-playing but who enjoy just goofing around every once in a while causing as much havoc and destruction as possible. They are sometimes given other advantages as well which more or less make them impossible to kill. Other players, who are a little more savvy with the console, sometimes create 'cheat' saves or 'god mode' saves with characters who have been artificially assigned the maximum skill levels, given all the perks, and given the best weapons and armor in the game. If you do use a save game for any other game, I recommend you have a base save (the one you started with perhaps) that you use to earn achievements and use the borrowed save files for tooling around or working around bugs. !! Warning !! Using a shared save file on PS3 and Xbox 360 will generally prevent you from earning achievements based on that save. If you're looking for a game save editor and you come across a download that asks you to fill out a survey before using it, don't bother! It's just a scam to get your personal information. Playstation 3 saves are encrypted and as Modio does not work for PS3 saves, I don't think there is currently a workaround for it. I'm sure if you Google it, you'll come up with some answers. I know a lot of Xbox users use Modio to edit their game saves, but I have no idea how it works or what kinds of limitations it has. Xbox game saves are attached to gamertags and removing these ids can result in being banned from Xbox Live. To the best of my knowledge, however, there are currently no save game resources available for Skyrim for either of these consoles. I am not an expert on Xbox 360 or PS3 games, since I tend to play most of my games on the PC.
