250 hours for FFX-2 ?!?

That's crazy and even more crazy than mine 200+ for FFXII.

I can hardly remember any save data being more than 1MB apart from Gran Turismo 4.
Most were between 300KB and 50KB.

Maybe I remember GT4, but still most of the games had >300KB 3d model. Except the ones with the cubes and the rectangles I guess.

psx did this first

 

[Not Spaceghost]

Yeah I remember one of the first things I would do after starting new game was to turn the console off after saving and check out the save icon thing, or as I called it back then the "memory picture". I remember being really disappointed when checking out the tekken 4 one...I just remember being disappointed with tekken 4 actually.

Silent Hill 3's Robbie icon comes to mind especially.

I really miss the PS2 days. jRPG goodness, and the manuals! I like reading those before starting a game, nowadays its a one page print out in black & white.

I liked Silent Hill 2's radio icon.
I believe there was a doghouse icon on either replays or Born from a Wish, but it's been years so I might be wrong.

Everyone is writing it, so why wouldn't I...
Let's start some hashtag movement on Twitter.

I was going to save game screen to see what game had what too.

Good idea.

Yeah shocked myself. I remember spending more than 150 hours in FFX. But 251 in X-2 was a huge surprise. And I haven't even cleared 100% for true ending. Stuck at 98 or 99%.

True, deleting save files triggered another animations. Wanna check but don't have extra memory card for backups.

My PS2 memory card is littered with the save icons of the games I didn't finish. It is a sad reminder to me.

 

[drtomoe123]

think about the loading times....

the last games for ps2 got "bearable" loading times...

Not if you've got the games installed to a PS2 hard drive.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I could never delete half of 'em, they always starting crying or lookin' sad.

 

[TheContact]

Even the PS1's were cool, I love the randomly generated portrait icons for games like Chrono Cross

 

[fvng]

If I didn't have a current gen system or plan on getting a PS4, I'd be totally fine with only owning a PS2. So many games I never got around to.

 

[Jaykay]

I always found myself going into my memory card on my PS2 (and PS1 to a lesser extent) quite often after starting new games to see what the save icon was. Even if it wasn't a major feature of the system, I always thought seeing a game's icon was pretty cool.
