HI I just bought a MAX MEMORY 64 mb memory card, it says it has eight times the capacity of a normal memory card, but will it hold 8x as many gamees or just reallly large game saves?, It doesnt seem to hold more games than my normal memory card or anything, so Im kinda dissapointed.

I'm not sure I fully understand the question, but I'll give this a shot. Some games have specific number of save slots (ie. Winning Eleven 9 - only 35 saves are allowed per memory card, and I think the first Kingdom Hearts only allowed up to 99), so regardless of how much space your card has available you are restricted by the game. That being said, your memory card will still hold the 64 mb worth of game saves. I have the exact same card, so I'll pass along some tips. Some games are not compatible with non-sony memory cards. The two I've found so far are Resident Evil 4 and We (heart) Katamary. To save those games you'll need an official memory card. Also, it seems that corrupted files occur more frequently on these memory cards than on the official sony ones. I currently have this problem. I've got a corrupt Manhunt save on my card and whenever I go into the browser everything freezes and I can't access the saves to delete or copy. Not really a problem since with 64 mb I won't need to be deleting saves anytime soon. But even with the corrupt files, my other saves still load perfectly, and I can still save to the memory card without problems. Hope that helps.

Sorry for the length of the post. I was just trying to be thorough.
Let me know if this answers your questions, or if I completely misunderstood what you were asking.

Thank you so much for the reply! but Im not trying to save 99 Kingdom hearts(although I did try to put some resident evil on it, I think I got some of the minigames to save on it) but the problem Im having is that itwont allow me to put any more games on it every time i try to copy one on it it starts and fails and every tie I try to save on it it fails could this just be alarge streak of noncompatibiility?

Are you trying to copy saves from another memory card to this one?

If there is a limit to the number of games these memory cards hold saves for, then I have never encountered it. I have about 60 games on my card, and some with multiple save files.

I guess it could just be a bad card. Or you could even try formatting the card and starting fresh.

Well I know I havent put over 60 games- Ive only copied games from 1 memory card to this one so it should all fit but I had to delete games to get a single saved file to fit on it!
