After having this happen to me more than once I learned to save, save, save, and when your finished save. Regardless of the game or system you never know when the power will go out, lock-ups, alien invasion etc. :P

Just had to rant...I spent all day playing Cosmic Fantasy 2 on my new turbo duo, and after a cut scene the game locked up. no prob... I reboot and in my haste to restart the game I accidently erased my save...God dammit >:( ...my whole day wasted....now I have to start from the damn beginning... :/

yeesh. you're the 3rd person i know that's happened to recently with that game. i did that myself as well- i think i was about 8 or so hours into the game, and had played about 5 hours since my last save (the game does get pretty addictive after a while, but the amount of battles is a pain).

the last game to lock up on me was ff9- i found a complete one in the trash a few weeks ago (!), and it was complete and in PERFECT shape... except for disc 3, which had a long hairline scratch and a very, very small gouge. i rescued the game, cleaned and perma-spinned the discs, and it was fine. until disc 3, when the game locked up during the bahamut movie! took about 2 more hours of using perma-spin (and elbow grease) to get it to run. best free game i've ever played.

What's this "perma-spin"? Some sort of disc rescue device or kit?

go to www.exlumen.com - works MUCH better than ANY hand-operated machine, and won't screw up the disc or "re-surface" it... :D

Cool. Do you have to order it, or can you pick it up retail? (I don't remember seeing it.)

it's a bit hard to find in stores- it's best to order it directly, or do a search to see which retailers carry it. i've had my bottle for about a year or so, and again, it works wonders, so i guess this is a word of mouth kinda thing, lol... :D
