I bought a 32MB PS2 Memory card. I have plenty of games so i do need a capacity bigger than 8MB. So i was happy with my 32MB card, until today. It decided not to save. Therfore, having spent a three-hour expedition on Kingdom Hearts and finding out you can't save had tears rolling down my face... and on Christmas Eve as well....

Has anyone else suffered with a corrupt memory card that isn't official?

For some reason a file got corrupted on my memory card, but mine was official. I expect this to happen from unofficial products but not from an official Sony product. I now always try to make a copy on a different memory card in case this happens.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory. They purposely screw it up so everyone buys twice as many memory cards.

They do seem to have a few flaws. I'm on my second PS2 because the first one stopped playing any of the discs.

you do pay a lot for 8MB when you can get sd cards that hold a lot more fo less.

They are a lot less reliable than official Sony ones though, even though a file on my official Sony card got corrupted.

it sounds like most people have had trouble with their PS2 in some form or another. I hope the Ps3 has none of these problems...
