Deleting ME1 import save Shepards from an X-Box 360

Hello. 

             My platform is the X-Box 360. I've played ME1 many, many times and love it. On playing the game again, recently, I found that I had only 10 save-game slots available to me. I believe, (but am by no means sure), that this is caused by too many "import save-game files"?....the Shepards that are kept somewhere on the X-Box 360 as the import for a new ME2 game. I have over 30 of these Shepards waiting to break Ashley, or Kaidin, or Liara's heart by being imported into ME2 and the resulting consequences. Can anyone please explain how I can delete these import saves from my X-Box 360?

    This is the way I did it but does require the use of a USB stick formatted to FAT32.

    Plug in the USB stick and go to Settings, System Settings, Storage. Find the drive your import saves are on and highlight it, now press the Y button. Pick the USB drive to transfer to.

    Now the transfer saves will be under other or system items, you'll recognise them as they will have Shepard's first name on. Make sure to deselect everything else you don't want to get rid of.

    Once that is done, move the transfer saves to the USB stick.

    Take that USB stick to a PC and you can delete the Xbox folder that was created (you'll need to turn on view hidden items) or simply format it. Those saves are now gone for good.
