as in me, i have an official memory card and I have only corrupted once in my entire pso career, and that was when i left somone else with my gamecube for a few minutes while I went to check somthing online on my computer...
also, Ivan, how long are the time frames on that, i know you used official memory cards longer than madcatz...

Kevin, let me be the first to say that Mad Katz makes the poorest quality stuff ever. I bought a controller of theirs and I swear to you just a day later it was destroyed. I did nothing to it (like drop it), it just suddenly started malfunctioning. Also you obviously don't understand how corruption works because you wouldn't take it so lightly if you did. When the freeze occurs during the second save, it's always right away so no matter how fast it saves, you can still corrupt because the freeze occurs immediately. Besides, you said over a period of three years which is BS because the game hasn't even been out that long AND you've only owned that Mad Katz for a month at most. After owning the Mad Katz for three years, we'll see how many times you corrupt. Stick with Nintendo brand cards, I've only corrupted twice in nearly 2 years of playing time and they were both partly my fault because I didn't heed my own steps to avoiding corruption, they aren't foolproof but they help a lot (haven't corrupted in a year).

my view is that every mem card will get corrupted once in it's lifetime so don't get over confident that your mem card will never get corrupted it will happen sooner or later thats my view anyone got any views diffent then pm me!

what he says is true, everyone who is online will experience corruption at one point or another no matter what memory card you use.

That is complete BullS**t! thats what i was using at first when my Ep3 stuff kept corrupting! 7 times on that memcard! do not use it!

I dunno what to tell you. Believe me Lionheart, I had quite a similiar experience. The odds ARE quite slim though. Its a less time frame to freeze while its saving. And if I take corruption so lightly, then why did I get so mad I punched my fist through a fan and swear at least once in every sentence I said for the next week? (When I had Shylinn-138, Ivan-124, Kevin-113, Aledros-99)
Believe me, when it comes to corruption, I need anger management.
