Just lost my 40+ hour Zelda save, Resident Evil save after completing it on all difficulties, Wave Race save and 10+ hour Eternal Darkness save all because of the bast*rd game known as Burnout 2. I can't believe this has happened, there is no way I am going back through Zelda or Eternal Darkness so I might as well lob them on Ebay in a minute. I can not believe this has happened, absolutely bollo*ks. All because some pasty faced programmer left a glitch in the game.

Oh ye sorry, just checked and missed your post. No I don't know anyone who has completed it so it looks like a fresh start. Its a pain though as I had spent ages collecting the treasure maps andtrying to unlock everything, the same goes for Eternal Darkness. I will go back to them in a months time and will probably feel like playing them through again.

Live is still in it's infancy really. With non-online games I'm happy if I get an extra level or two.

THe cheekiest game for dowloadable content has to be C:DS 2, I was expecting a new mission and what do I get? 4 new types of %^&*(£$ uniforms!!

Ghost Recon seemed to have a fair bit of DC, Rainbow 6 isn't tapped out yet I expect, Unreal 2 should get a fair few levels since it's only starting with 4 online levels!! Halo 2 will no doubt keep us all happy over the summer with a load of DC.

When a company starts to make a killing of the back of DC then others will follow suit.

As for memory cards, a load of faulty 8mb cards (bought from this very establishment) ruined any chance of me getting through Turok 2 by dying a week to ten days after I bought them. I always avoid Blaze merchandise now.

We need USB ports on consoles for memory cards, then we can backup our saves onto our PCs just incase the memory card screws up.

Similar is available with the Action Replay on the Xbox, Game Port on the PS2 and Game Boy Advance. Just not available for GameCube at the moment.
