Corrupt Savegames?

The key here is when you make a save, make sure that the "GAME SAVED" message is display on the screen. If it doesn't, then the game is NOT SAVED PROPERLY. Just unpause, move a short distance (like one step), then pause again and try to save once more.

Yes, I always checked for the message to display before quitting the game, needless to say the message was always displayed.

As for your problem, I myself did not find a solution for the corrupt files (I ended up deleting them)... I had to replay from a non-corrupt save file and make sure this time around that the saves are done properly. As such, don't rely on the quicksave and autosave; just do a regular save.

I will consider this in the future, thanks
