It's official...i'm an IDIOT....

Ok, I am the BIGGEST MORON east of the missisippi...i think what i did late night proved it.

First of all, Ren gave me a PS and a copy of Xenogears (which is A GREAT GAME) and, when i got home from his house, at about 10:00, i started playing it. i played for about 3 hours, on and off....

Now, here's the sad part...

I have never played a playstation game before...I'm used to playing Nintendo games where you can actually save the game in the cartrage... APARANTLY, you cant do that on CD's, you need something called a memory card. so, i'm hanging out in the desert after 3 hours of gaming, and i have about 5 HP left. now, i TRY to save, but since i dont know what a memory card IS, of course, i dont have one. and so, i couldnt save. and, OF COURSE, i got into a battle walking back to the town, and died....and, of COURSE, i couldnt save..so, now i have to start over again...

D'OH!

So, i guess I learned my lesson...PS games=NEED MEMORY CARD...

thank you very much...

My advice is always check to see if it needs a memory card and if the system does,go buy it, but if you dont have enough for the memory card, wait until you do to buy the new system+memory card. unlike most people think, Xbox does NOT need a memory card...on its harddrive it has (im dead serious) +500000000000 blocks of space. and every save for every game is oh about 10-20 blocks. ( dont know why i posted about the Xbox....cus you all dont want to buy one...but hey..this topic was about memory and memory cards...)i just think thats kinda strange...and cool....

Oh, Ur not an idiot, Davey. I'M an idiot. I do idiotic things, like fight with walls and doors (they ALL wanna mess with me!) and try to run from my shadow (it stalks me..i swear...). SO, there. Davey=Cool Guy. Me=some chick who DS wants to shut up.

hmm, also to add to that Davey, dont buy a PS2 memory card if you plan on saving psX games on it.... it doesnt work... unless you save it on your psX mem. card and swap it to your ps2 card to save memory.. not that you want to know that. Oh, Amy, doors are fun to fight with if you have large swords and home insurance against damage from a leathal weapon.. Ü

My playstation magazine went through great lengths to make everyone know that the PS2(or PSX) memory cards weren't compatible on PSX( or PS2). The funny thing is, they also went through great lengths to express how the controllers werent compatible either. But they are. What idiots. And that was where i switched magazines...

I'm slightly idiotic too. I read so fast I skip over some stuff and I get so confused I just give up till later to get help. And Ami, you're not (that much of) an idiot, you just need help being sane. Look at the bright side, Davey. Once I was playing FFX after watching someone play and I had no idea to save and I got a game over...The last place someone saved was at the agency before you fight the Chocobo eater.
