Ok so whenever I take out the game and put it back in, MY PLACE IS LOST! I saved too! I still have all the photos I took and the shoes I changed into from the last game but I'm still forced to start from the beginning where you're just standing outside with carlito! This is very frustrating!

Hmmmm, I dont know. I would suggest taking your hard drive from your xbox 360 to someplace, and see if people there can determine is something is wrong with it. Sorry for me being so vague.

Take advantage of this because you can level up this way. Your PP points are also saved even though you start over.Skip through the beginning until you get to the roof top,take a pic of Carlito for around 100 pp. Go inside and get the bulletin board pp for about 800 pp at 100%.Then go to the mall and photograph all survivors plus whatever pp stickers you can find, theres at least 2. then after the cut scene try and take some pictures of survivors killing zombies, big bunches,the front door,etc, then head upstairs to save the first 2 survivors on the rooftop and bring them in,they get you about 40,000 pp if you take good picture of them hugging. then I saved and started the game again, doing the same thing over. I'm currently at level 28 after a few hours and I haven't started the game yet. after a few levels you will be able to load the game no problem.

Well, yes she could do this, but what she wants is the problem to be fixed, you can do what you said without her saved game being lost.

Well yeah I could do that, but I think I found out what's going on. (OK I saw this on another site) Whenever I die and just get bored of the game I press the save status and quit option and that's what loses my spot. I think it's something about I have to go to the dash board if I want to get out of my game. TEST: My sister was playing, we had her go to a save spot I think and then pause. Then went to the Xbox360 dash board and signed out. Then I logged on but signed back out. She logged on and pressed to start the game and she was still at her spot so that works! I guess I just gotta try and see if it works when I put other games in it.

Never choose "Save Status and Quit" unless you want to start over. You should save your game in a restroom found around the mall if you want to keep your current progress. Just walk up to a urinal or a stall in a restroom and save your game there where it has the save icon.

"Save Status and Quit" is there if you want to keep your current level and start the game over.

yeah they should have made that more clear.
