Ah the good ol' days of inconvenient memory cards and the amazing library of the PlayStation 2. Those were incredible times, and recently I decided to buy a bunch of PS2 memory cards with the hope of exploring the remnants of said memories. Considering most people never bothered to remove their save files, that means they're usually still there! Let's check out what people were playing, and maybe even see where they left off. And maybe finish them. Maybe. Okay I did two games. I would've done more but like, that would take awhile.

I was a store manager for GameStop for three years in the mid 2000’s and can confirm we never ever wiped any memory cards nor was there a company policy
@Kenjicho
@Kenjicho 11 месяцев назад
@SentientPops Yes, we would take the stickers off if asked. To your point, it would take a lot of time to manually wipe the memory cards. In addition, we would need to set up a PS2 to initiative the process of deleting the saves. Gamestop was all about getting the used product back out there so they could sell it at max price. The more the games or accessories sat on the shelf the less they would be worth. This also included systems as well

What I didn't like about the Xbox was that it had a hard drive. As a result, hardly anyone who had an Xbox bought the memory card. It was always said bring your save and the answer was, don't bring my console with you. Just the love that was put into it for the memory card savegames with the animations, etc. Didn't even have the cube. The cube generally had the problem with the blocks. I remember that I had the gray card with 54 blocks. Some games simply took up to 20 blocks. was like the PS1 but even there, I didn't think it was that bad. especially since PS1 memory cards were not that expensive in comparison. It's really a shame that those times are over. At the latest with the PS5, where you can no longer back up your saves on the USB stick, it's just shit and pure money-making, because you're forced to pay for the cloud save subscription. At least MS offers it for free.

You goddamn right that FFX was THE RPG for PS2. It was pretty common to see it in a PS2 owner's library, even if they weren't necessarily big on RPGs or Final Fantasy. It had almost the same impact as 7, but for the PS2.

lol, what a coincidence. I literally bought a used PS2 card myself like a week ago, since I have finally set up my childhood consoles again after 20 or so years and needed some more space. Mine came full of savegames as well and I feel kind of bad about deleting them. The owner was even a racing game fan like me as well.

This was such a good idea for a video. Recently, me and my younger cousin found his old ps2 with original memory card and had a blast going through it. They had our Eye Toy profiles on there and it had screenshots of us from when we were 4 and 9 years old.

I know, I'm a chronic game switcher and restarter myself anyone else do that? if (and only if) I'm really enjoying a game I keep the original save but about 50% will start a new save and then jump between the 2 saves as I finish the last half. No idea why just what I do sometimes

@@sellingacoerwa8318 im the fucking worst for it...i need something to hook me immediately, then i need to just stay away from looking or thinking about anything else on my steam list or emulators. here's a good example, i started witcher 2 in march of 22, got through most of chapter 1 , just did the bath scene. then didn't open it again until may 2023.... the same thing happened to me with witcher 1 back in 2018....so i'll just restart and hopefully ignore everything else when i do.

The reason some of the saves are from 2012 is maybe from kids my age who also grew up on the PS2. I’m 18 now, but I grew up playing the PS2 along with the Wii and 3DS around 2010-2015.

What a great video. I’ve got old memory cards that go back to the ps1 with the last saves on them being from 2004, And the ps2 memory cards i own have saves as recent as 2022. If i ever let them go, somebody is going to have a treasure trove of great game saves. Everything from the tony hawk games, down to obscurities like Ribbit King

Saves that went up to 2012 were so nostalgic for me. It was exactly what you said, some people didn't have the ps3 just yet, it wasnt until 2013 after visiting my sister in Austin, she gave me her PS3 we would always play on before she moved away as a gift to me. I still have it all those years later!
