Hmm...that sucks, especially when I have 50+ hours of gameplay on FFX and finished MGS and all its variants many times to unlock items..

In which case you will need to buy the memory card adaptor for the PS3 so you can transfer from over.

That is good that you can switch virtual cards while in a game. Does it also allow the creation of a new virtual card while in a game?
I tend to be the same with memory cards, only realising I'm out of space while playing a game. It has been annoying recently because I completely ran out of space on all of my PS2 memory cards mid game so lost 3 hours of gameplay on the RPG Steambot Chronicles. I really should check such things before starting to play a game for hours.

Maybe Sony (or a third party) could, shock horror, take a leaf out of Microsoft's book and produce a controller for the PS3 that has a memory card slot.

There are probably hundreds of reasons why not, but hey, it would work for me.

That method worked fine on the N64, Dreamcast and Xbox so I cannot see why they couldn't do it. Equally I would like to see a PS3 pad with rumble added back in!

I think they're gonna add the feature in their next controller releases.

No, it doesn't. Best to have at least one with plenty of space handy. When choosing which card to assign from that ingame menu it also lists how much space is left on each one, so at least you don't have to keep trying them all until you find one with enough space on it.

That's good, I remember having an 8MB memory card on the PS1, and having to cycle through the pages trying to find a free space. The refresh in the memory card manager was about 20 seconds per page.

I remember the same. I also had a 8MB memory card for the PS1 and often had to do that to find space. Quite annoying, but better than having a stack of 8 cards.
