Thread: Saving Your Game

  1. #1

    Default Saving Your Game

    When you save your game for Final Fantasy X, do you save your progress in one save file or do you fill up your memory card with loads of saves at different points in the game?

    One save file, my memory card had a lot of games on it so I need to save space

    One file. If you need to, make multiple saves, but in FFX, you shouldn't need it.

    3 or 4, just for the heck of it since I don't have too many other saved files.

    heh.......yeah, use as few save files as possible, if you want to reduce loading and saving times. I found the more save files I had, the more time it took to save.....like any PC.

    I usually use four save files, but that's for most any RPG I play, just in case I want to go back a bit and do something differently.

    I usually have 3 for each game I play. One for backup in case I do something stupid and save, save over the wrong file, or the power cuts off while saving, and one in case I need to do something differently. I save over the oldest out of the backup and the current game file.

    I used lots with ffx because I really didn't need my ps2 cards for anything else.

    I only need one file

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I have two. One for backup.

    I've also got my friends account on my memory card just to muck around.

    Two should be about the right amount. Any more takes more time to save. You should have 2 just in case you save over the wrong file or want to try or do something but not screw up your original account.

    I usually make a bunch to watch memorable cut scenes again. (The water scene, for example), and I do that for almost all my RPGs. (Although I usually clean out the memo card anyway, so meh.)

    oh my! I have three for my best game, all becasue i saved over my 100 hr + game once and i cried, physically, because it was with a 1 and a half hr game (fortunately my friend had my backup file).

    And on my first (crappy) game, i had many, because i didn't know if i would survive, and be able to train, etc. So I'd say a good twenty

    I have about 3 or 4 for my current save, and my best save for old playthroughs... It's about all I use my PS2 card for that and X-2 which is the same system
