Butter it up and eat it cause its\' TOAST.

Ditch third party. Use only cards licensed by Sony, otherwise you probably will have problems. I always paid the extra few bucks and get the Sony one becacsue I know I won\'t have problems since it is their technology.

To date (touches wood (ooo-err)), I\'ve never had a problem with mem cards.

My PS2 however, that\'s a different matter.

My old one went for a shitter about 9 months ago or so, and now my new one seems to be playing up a bit when it attempts to load textures, most notably in GTA SA, large sections of the map appear blank or in low res for ages.
