I wanted to ask and see if there's any specific reason anyone knows of for this. I'm sure there's probably multiple reasons for it, but I thought I'd ask just in case it's something I can easily avoid.

It's only happened once before when I got really far in TXR3 and I learned my lesson, so I keep doubles of everything. It was because the power went out just as I was saving though.

I was playing a game just now, and as I was saving it was like "game data is damaged". I had another file I saved over so it's all good but If the second one had gotten damaged when I saved, I would have been screwed since I'm out of space on my memory card (PSX btw)

I noticed that if I push my memory cards in all the way (PSX and PS2 memory cards; playing on PS2) they don't read, so I usually have to pull them out slightly so the game can read them. I think maybe that might be the issue.

Has that happened to anyone before? I thought maybe the memory card slot was damaged or something :s
