Memory Cards, Good or Bad?

[Ruze]

I've heard a lot of people complain about Memory Cards for the PS2, especially about how much they cost. Memory Cards work great for me, I love the idea.

Well untill they work out a good hard drive for them, or go back to using cartriges like the n64, sega, etc. that they can save the game in, were gunna have to use memory cards, which is just fine with me.

at walmart i see ones that only hold 8-16-32 mb, which is probably all necessary, but the gamecube ones are 64-256-512-1024

they say different but thats because the space is udes for something else so they say 56-250-500-1000, plus the nice flat numbers are probably easy for simple folk to understand.

Gamecube uses blocks, and they go by 51 instead of 64... which is kinda weird. Memory cards are good, they let you take your data to a friends house

Yeah, Mem Cards are fun, especially if you rig up your own... and then you can dupe the data for backup =)

 

BTW, the cards are classed 59 - 256 - 512 - 1019

 

But people just call em, normal, x4, x8, x16 (even though it's not truely so =))

 

Also, the GC's 59 MEM Cards are 4 Megs each so in MBs, 4, 16, 32, 64

They should just call em 1g, .5g, .25g, etc. Much simpler in my opinion, and it doesnt change what it really is.

I say bad, I think it is better to just imput saving in the console itself... But then again, I use xbox

And unless you want to void your warrenty and spend 10-20 minutes transferring the hard drives, good luck bringing save-games to your friends house!

[Zackman]

But why would i need to do that? Just make them come over here

Instant ban from XBox Live if you play Halo 2 >.<

 

PS2 and GC on the other hand is different =)
