If you would have turned it off before taking it out that probly wouldnt have happened. Sadly there is no way to fix damged data. Once it's messed up it is for good. The best thing to do is erase your game before it affects the other files on your card. Then start a new one, if I remember correctly the last few Tony Hawk games had codes in them that allowed you to unlock most of the stuff maybe you can use those to get you back to where you were at.

my THUG 2 data exploded a while back when if froze while saving, thus corrupting the file. I was pretty pissed.

Only thing you can do is delete the save file and start over, unfortunetly...

This happened to me twice on THUG2. I tried the 'turning it off without taking the memory card out' thing but that corrupts the data too. As far as I know this "glitch" only takes place in two levels, Australia and New Orleans. I just avoid saving on those levels. You'll hafta start the game from scratch, there's no way to get the data back

What I do to avoid restarting the entire game is keep two save files and everytime I save the game I save to both. That way if one gets corrupted during a save then I still have a backup.
