Is anyone having a problem with the memory card for the PS2?.
I do not know if this is happening to anyone else but, after saving your progress in a game, the game or the console corrupts the data in that slot!.
Being new to the Playstation scene, Is this a common thing or is something up with the card or the console?.
It is pretty damn annoying after a few days gaming and finding that you cannot load up where you last left off and have to start all over again!!!. AARRRGGGHHHH.
It seems to happen mainly with PS1 games when using the original type memory cards. The 8mg PS2 card seems to work well with all the PS2 titles, just the occasional machine crash every now and then.
Then again maybe it is a faulty machine.
Any help would be appreciated!.

Yes, Both the cards are official Sony cards.
When we go to load a saved game , the machine comes up with a corrupted data message!.
Piping us off at the moment, might take it back to the shop to see if something up with the thing.

this has happened to me when playing a few games on the PS1 and it was very annoying cos it was GT and i had tons of cool cars, was winning every race, it was like the icons were there, but no data, so the Memcard got chucked at the wall and broken.

No problems for me. I have 7 PS2 games, all with saves on one memory card, and 4 PS1 cards with previous games on. No trouble whatsoever.

Are your PS1 cards official Sony or 3rd party?
