How far was he in the game? Tell him that he can skip cutscenes and that it's fun to try outdoing one's previous progress in a shorter period of time, just to see how much faster you can go.

My worst (yes, change the thread title) game file loss story was my brother deleting my F-Zero X file that had all 30 vehicles with trophies in all five cups on all four difficulty settings. His justification was that it would be fun to replay the entire thing again, but of course that never happened. Maybe 100 out of the 600 trophies got restored.


I hadn't really watched him play much. However, I did notice the boss he was beating yesterday.... *looks up ZeldaTP bosses* ... Argorok the dragon sky boss. damn, he was actually pretty close to the end. poor guy. I'm sure he'll replay.

Not much of a story, except that my banjo kazooie N64 game must of very simply glitched out when I turned it on one time. Next thing I know every file is a new file and I am just going out of my goddamn mind with sadness...luckily did get back into another file but I was very close to giving up the game for good. Other than that nothing too bad.



Probably my level 100 Venasaur Raichu and moltress getting wiped out on my red file

Time for hype

I thought I lost my save to Oblivion, so I start to play through again, and spend like a full day on it. I then realize, hours later, I was logged into the wrong account on my XBox 360. Go figure.



I lost save files for a completed Star Ocean: First Departure and a Final Fantasy Tactics that was at the final boss for the PSP and a few other files. Something happened and all the save files became corrupt. Very sad day.

Top 3 this gen.

3. Xbox 360 rrod, lost ME save file, ME2 didn't make much sense with the standard story.
2. PS3 ylod, had to start over with GT5 after nearly completing the campaign.
1. FF12 on bc ps3. I did all the side quests, maxed out my favorite chars, and had just started on the final mission when the virtual memory card went corrupt. I must have quit out to the xmb too soon after saving, all save files were gone. I never used the BC functionality again.



Pokémon Blue. The exact same day I got my 150th pokémon, my younger cousin toke my gameboy when I wasn't looking and started a new game/saved. idk if she did it on purpose or because she didn't know what she was doing cause she was so young but when I opened my gameboy to find out that my character was in his room with no pokémon I was devastated. I was like 9 years old at the time and the worst thing is that as soon as I got my 150th pokémon, I saved and turned off my gameboy so I didnt even get the chance to play as a pokémon master.

ok, crisis adverted... he will play Zelda again. :) After a short nap, he came out of his room in a much better mood. We talked again and he will start again. Thank god, I thought I'd lost him for a second there.

Weren't you the one who lost a Child to CoD Syndrome?



My lil sis ruined several save files during the SNES days. SMW was the first casualty, followed by Zelda:LTTP, then eventually DKC, and she even erased my SMRPG file where I had gotten every single item in the game and had my characters all at lvl 30.

A buddy of mine also accidentally erased my Banjo Kazooie file when I brought it over one time... I was already up to Mad Monster Mansion after only having gotten the game a couple days before. I was pissed lol.
