i got the dreaded corrupt save game problem today on Mass effect 2. The problem is affecting People who bought the ps3 version, the game just crashes at random points in the game and when you restart to carry on your saved game is corrupted, forcing you to start again. Luckily iread about this at the beginning of the week and have been copying my progressed save data to my external Harddrive everytime im finished.
I had just finshed scanning all the planets in the Hawkin eta and caleston rift clusters and then travelled korlus in the eagle nebula to do the "Dossier:warlord" mission. i'd finished the mission then the game just froze i waited 1minute and i knew that id been hit with the problem, so i'd lost around 3 hours of play. i was gutted but only because i had to scan all those planets again to gain the resources i had gatherd. But im one of the lucky ones, theres one person who had lost 40 hours of play because they didnt backup the save data.
So remember to backup your mass effect 2 save data. Bioware are working on a fix and have sai it should be released next week sometime.
Oh yeah i have since got past the part where it crashed before and now i have just landed on Horizon.
