    Wouldn't it just be easier to buy a new copy of FFIX?

    1. that would just be transferring the problem to another person, if he was willing to sell it
    2. wouldnt it be easier and cheaper to dl disc 3, copy the savegame off of your memory, play it on ePSXe, and transferring the disc 4 savegame back to the PS1?

    I would recommend purchasing a used copy of the game or emulation. I do not think that you would find many buyers willing to part with only one disk of their game, and I think that you would probably have to pay more than you thought you would, too.

    im not talking about selling me thrie only copy of disk 3 (hence why I said spare) say you instance you might have lost a disk of your FFIX and bought a whole new game there for free up the other 3 disks and as to copying the save game from PS2 to PC how do I do that I havent the foggiest, if you could tell me how id be greatful also would someone make an ISO of their disk three and send it somehow to me? thanks =)

    You'd be better off looking on Ebay and buying the game once again. It's pretty hard to find, so I doubt anyone will be willing to part with disc 3 - since they'll be left without it. >_>

    Emulation is legal if you own the game, maybe you should try it :D?


    ...of course it's just not the same as playing it on the console it's meant for ; ;

    I have a similar problem, actually. I've gone through three FF9 games since the game first came out, and because I've played it so much the discs got scratched and worn down. -_-

    So, Ebay is probably really the best chance if you want to replace the game. Besides, at least you'll have spare discs in case the other three go wrong. :P

    I doubt that you will find someone with a spare copy of Disk 3; furthermore, I doubt that you will find someone with a spare copy of the game on this forum.

    That is a complicated process. You must have a third party peripheral like DexDrive to import the memory card data to the computer, then utilize a third party software which converts memory card data into various formats. I do not think that it is worth it, personally.

    My disk 2 broke once.
    I just had to borrow it off one of my friends and give it back when I was done with it.

    It's so cheap!

    Not sure about the UK, but Australia uses PAL too and the game is pretty cheap here.

    I've looked on ebay for FFIX and in Australia it is not cheap. All of the listings are at least $50. I've seen ones up for $80-$100.

    And yes, the UK does use PAL (my copy of X is from the UK).

    I looked on ebay.co.uk and the copies of FFIX are significantly cheaper than the Australian ones, so you probably would be well off just buying a new copy of the game unless you have a friend with a disc 3 to lend you.
