I'm a total rookie on this game; will I manage without a Memory Card?

[Peter_20]

The topic says it all.
I was starting on this game the other day, but then I found out that my PS1 Memory Card didn't work, bah.

I won't have this, I'm gonna play the game anyway and be on the lookout for a PS2 Memory Card.
However, I'm just wondering if I will manage decently without dying?
I'm a very experienced FF player, but will I manage this particular game without saving?

Pretty much yeah, FFX is pretty. Its not adviseable though, what with the chance of missing items you might want, or more importantly, the possibility of power failures / someone turning your console off etc.

I would advise to go play IX (even if you already have) until you get a PS2 mem card.

Though I thought it was common knowledge PS2 games won't save to PS1 mem cards...

There'll be a few bosses that I wager you'll die on. But if you train a lot, then you probably wont.

But its bad for your PS2 to leave it on. Go play FFIX!

lol... I never died, I think FFX is too easy peasy...

I hate the people that post here

Aaaanyway. Your first time through, I doubt it. OVERLEVEL LIKE CRAZY!

If you're being serious... *winces* You are, are'nt you? i think you should splash the cash on a Ps2 memory card, they're about 20 quid (are you british? American? Other?) Argos sells thoes damm things, i think they've got about 20,000 MB or something...
Give it a try without if you want, Good Luck!

yeh it'll only take u 5 mins to get a ps2 card. but if ur gonna wait till u come across one, then don't play iX, play VII or VIII

[Firo Volondé]

If you can't get a memory card immediately and are looking for something else to play, I suggest - I warn you, this may seem a little crazy - PLAY A GAME APART FROM FINAL FANTASY. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend that you try to go the whole way through without saving, since one mistake and you'll have lost all of your progress.

[Bashini]

Well, it is possible to get through the game without sleeping, but I would recommend spending the 20-30 dollars for a PS2 card or borrow one.

just go on ebay theres memory card bids ending every few minutes, but you shoudnt die much anyway

Welcome to 2001, Peter_20!

btw, most PS2 games work the same way.

20 GB memory card? Non-existent.

I ain't from no English-speaking country whatsoever, but your thinking so flatters me, because this means my English is pretty good.

Oh, and for the record, I'm from Sweden.

Wow, and I was pissed off when Gizamaluke killed me and I had not saved since Dali.

Oh well, I've actually got a Memory Card now, and suddenly FF10 became much more enjoyable.
