Funny Thing Happened Last Night...

[Renmiri]

Being paranoid, I have a good twenty or so files.

FFX, on the other hand, has around 50, due to me playing that game far too much, and far too often...

Same here

You only need two. One is for if you get stuck in a dungeon or something, you can go back.

[Remedy]

pity
you've lost the saved file
but hey, you sound ok with it ^^
that's what I liked

once my memory card has busted - and I'm mad until now >.<
because I lost my saving point for FF XII

KasaiDraco - you looked at the bright side - unlike me!
bless you

Thats happened to me a few times, never on a game where Ive racked up more than 20 Hours though, if that had happened, I'd surely be pissed.

[Little Blue]

I've usually got three save files, not because of technical issues (that never occured to me til I read this thread), but because I'm paranoid that I might've missed something and don't want to lose the ability to go back to it unless I'm sure it won't hamper my progress, which is when I overwrite the older file...

[KasaiDraco]

Heh, I'm already 4.5 hours into my new game.
Well, at least this time around, I'll get the Zodiac Spear. I' m already using 2 files to save my game.
