Leaving ya PS2 on all night because you didn't have a memory card Appreciation thread

[banginscrew901]

That wasn't shit when you were playing gran turismo and had to do 24 hour race..... This was before you were able to save it and pick back up. Had to pause that shit and hope it didn't storm or parents or siblings come in and cut it off.

Me and my brother found out a trick to this.

Get the fastest car you could find, set the left analog stick to accelerate when pushed to the right, throw a rubberband around both sticks and you were zooming around the track with no problem.

We would leave that shit on all night wake up with the race won

Yea that was later on I think with gt4 maybe gt5 with that red bull car. But some of those races you actually had to for real race plus hit the pit stop and change tires. And I want to say you had to fuel up also. If you want a real deal racing game gran turismo is the game you looking for

PS1 and Dreamcast smh Maa didn't understand the importance of a memory card so we had to wait til someone's bday then they'd take one for the team and get one

til then it was tryna cover the light with a book or sutten durin' school.

Comin' home and seein' the shit turned off was WOAT

Did that shit with the game cube

 

[aneed123]

Did that with regular Nintendo. Moms was like I can only play for a hour cuz the light bill would be high. That ain't enough time to best Mario lol so I cut the TV off and left the game on .

 

[So ILL]

Man, wake up and the PS2 used to be screaming, you'd get up and play that shit with no care whatsoever. You were serious if you had memory cards. These little niggas today don't know the struggle, they're growing up with gigs on gigs of internal memory and shit lol. I still have all my old memory cards.

 

[Trollio]

Dreamcast put memory cards on another level with the screen that you could interact with

Goat for the GTA cheat codes, sitting there punching in them codes just to get your money up or to get the good cars.

But nah I ain't never leave my ps2 on all night. I had like 2-3 memory cards and when they got full I just used my lil brothers.

Taking your memory card to your friends house was risky as fuck. Lose that bitch and feel like your life is over

Im proud to say I failed 7th grade cause of this shit. In 1993-1994 the only reason why I went to school was to trade and borrow games, read EGM and Game Pros and make fighting game move lists. I had a trapper keeper full of written down moves, magazine tearouts and drawings of RPG maps. My mom worked in a office so she photocopied game pages for me and i used to sell them at school to buy tapes or money to rent games on friday night. Friday night at blockbuster then>>>>the club now

This issue right here was the equivalent of crack cocaine epidemic in my school and hood. I can recall in DVD detail bloody fights, teachers getting cussed out and niggas ganging up and snatching on whoever reading this issue like wolves. This is how 90% of people in world found about the first MK2 screenshots, moves and finishers. If you had this issue you were bigger than the plug. Niggas would kiss your ass, give you their lunch, follow you, be your bodyguard, do your work anything just to get a peek. I got tons of stories about this magazine. Great time to be alive then

50 more GOATS.

I remember when the multitap first dropped, shit changed the game

 

[vagrant-718]

Never did it but my boy did come to school saying he left his psone on cause he couldn't save in a dungeon in Wild Arms

 

[mrtdb]

I had one memory card for the ps2...and I remember if I bought a new game I had to just delete stuff from it to make room or just yolo it.

My parents used to come in my room when I was asleep and turn stuff off though...so it was always a risk leaving it on...maybe my progress will still be there when I wake up...maybe not.

I use to go to Food Lion and take a pen wit me go over to the game mags and write down codes on my hand then walk away nigga I use to think I was the slickest mothafucka alive.

 

[The Recipe]

Never had that struggle post when I turned 18 I bought myself a Ps2, with Gta, Nba Streets and a memory card for my bday.

 

[qawshun]

The real struggle was not having a ps2 because they were too expensive

Used my college book money to get a ps2

 

[HafBayked]
