So yeah all my saves are gone.

This is pretty much every game enthusiast worst nightmare.
 
You have gotten your brand new slim Xbox. You want to get your profile off your old console onto your new console. You put the profile on your USB stick and delete the profile off your old one and  place it on to your new profile. Your ready to play some Borderlands. Load it up and your character is missing. That's odd. You load up Halo: Reach and that Hollywood Holocaust remake you spent 3 hours on as well as the rest of your maps, films and other stuff gone. Your 200 hour plus Oblivion save is gone. Nothing is on this console so you check your old console and what do you know, it's not on there either.
 
Fuck.
 
So each and every one of my game saves the for 150+ games I played is now gone. Looking back at what I did I did I must of use the option 'Delete profile and items' which includes games saves and other junk. So really I am only angry at myself for being such an idiot and now I must try rebuilding back my saves.
 
Hopefully your either luckier or smarter than I.
