Soul Calibur 3 problem

Brian · 10-05-2006, 09:26 AM

I know this may seem a little old now, but has anyone that's played Soul Calibur 3 had their data become corrupted? I was all set to make some kick-@$$ characters, but the stupid game won't let me go deeper into Chronicles Of The Sword mode to get these parts.

My big question is why? I hope I didn't mess something up.

This was a well documented issue with Soul Calibur III, unfortunately. I believe it was something that was initiated by moving or deleting some data on your memory card or something like that. Luckily for you, it seems you're not one of the people who's whole card got deleted. I'm really not sure what measures are to be taken to prevent this, but I haven't had it happen yet. I think mainly you just can't mess with anything on the memory card. Don't take my word for it though, I found an FAQ for the issue on GameFAQs, I'd give it a lookover. http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/f...corruption.txt

I think I may have a solution to this. After I get MK: Armageddon, I could erase my current SC3 data and start a newer, better file on that game. Think that might work?

I'm worried that erasing the SC Data might trigger the glitch as well and damage the whole card. I've been consideing getting a second PS2 Memory card for a while but I wouldn't quite be able to start a new file over there just based on the risk that deleting the old one presents. I guess I figured that I haven't run out of space on this one yet, but in a situation where I feel as tho I can't delete anything, I think it'd be best if I had a backup card.
