California has a right to be furious

I just got done playing my game on my college football game and was just starting to simulate the rest of the week. The California/Stanford game just got done simulating and California won and then lo and behold the power went off because it was storming a bit outside (luckily I already had my game saved so I didn't have to play it again). But then when I started the simulating over again California lost the game to Stanford and now they won't win the Pac 10 because the power went off for a split second.

The California Golden Bears have a right to be furious.

Okay.

I second this motion.

Most certainly.

Its an outrage I tell you.

I'm pretty OC about saving as often as I can, so this doesn't happen to me that often these days. I have had my share of corrupted or lost save files and such, though.

I got kind of far in FFV once, and my cousin was mad at me, and turned the system off while I was saving. The file was corrupted.

I almost killed him. Almost.

My DS usually stings me the worst in this manner, countless times i've been sucked into Hotel Dusk or Phoenix Wright and forgotten to save in a while and then battery randomly dies. I hate the feeling you get >;(

More games need to do what Disgaea DS does. It actually alerts you when the battery is going to die soon.
