Ever removed your memory card while saving?

[CyberPitz]

Just curious. I'm playing Wild ARMs again, and loving it. Then when saving that, I read the screen. Was ilke "Hmmm....I wonder what would happen, or if it is just some random bug that occurs, so they state some warning. Or if it happens EVERYTIME AND YOUR PSX/2 WILL EXPLODE!!.." or something. I'd do it, but too damn afraid that the card would die.

This is obviously for PSX/PS2's

It just corrupts your save file leaving the file being saved unusable.

Sometimes nothing happens, but most of the time the file you are saving is screwed over big time.

Your PS2 will catch flame and burn your balls off. Duh.

I remember on the www.gta-sanandreas.com boards, nubs would always sign up to say "OH GOD! I WAS SAVING FOR 100% and TOOK MY MEMORY CARD OUT! OF THE PS/2!!!!@ WHAT DO I DO? NOW"

EDIT: Hey cool. Looks like GTA: SA is AO now!

I heard one guy did it with GTA 3 and whenever his radio turned on the game crashed so when he got in a car he had to switch it of quickly before it started playing. I think it can corrupt your save-file.

Pretty sure it just fuxors your save. I've never done it, personally. :angel:

It corrupts a slot I think.

I've done it by accident, it just rapes your save file.

Which sucks, because I accidentally turned the PS2 off while it was saving my Timesplitters 2 game and I had basically beaten everything there was to beat, and that's a rather tough thing to do.

Get a piece of paper and a pen/pencil

Start writing the following sentence on the paper:

"This is my savegame. The data contained here is necessary for my game to work. Especially this end bit"

Halfway through, get someone to pull the paper away.

Same effect.

What do you expect... the game is writing the data to the card, so if you remove it, it clearly it won't finish writing the data................. ............ .........
