I've recently been effected by one of sony's screw ups and it really ticked me off. That Holiday 2004 demo disc that i got in the mail with Viewtiful Joe 2 on it screwed me over. If you have a ps2 and got the demo you know this already, but for those of you that don't know about the bug that was in the demo, i shall inform you. Sony found out that when one plays the Viewtiful Joe 2 demo, one's info on one's memory cards that are inserted at the time get deleted. Well I didn't read my e-mail before i got the demo and sure enough i saw Viewtiful Joe 2 on it and thought, hey that looks cool i think i'll play it. Then afterwords i checked my e-mail to find the following message sent from Sony. Dear PlayStation(R) Underground Member,
You are scheduled to receive the Holiday 2004 Demo Disc

Thank God i saved all my FFVII data (which had been deleted before by a friend on accedent) onto my hard drive. I still lost all my FFX-2 data (only 2 or so hours from beating it), FFXIII, and FFIX data. Thanks a lot sony.
