Transferring Skyrim saved games from one machine to another

Question

Is there a way of easily transferring a saved game from one machine to another?

1. PC to PC
2. XBox to XBox
3. PS3 to PS3
4. Cross platform transfers

Answer

This should work for Skyrim just like it does for other games:

For PC to PC, you can go to the "User/Documents/My Games/Skyrim" folder and simply copy the "Saves" folder from one machine to the corresponding folder on the other machine.

For XBox 360, here's a guide on how to transfer saved games.

For PS3, here's a good video guide on how to generally move save games and here's a guide on how to transfer save games from PC to the PS3, although it's possible that this just works with saved games which are originally from a PS3.
