I heard that if you play this game on the ps2 and try to save it, it goes really funny and the screen jumps around. Is this true and if so is the game still playable on the ps2??

Oh lol kool i must get this game then. It was wikipedia that said that.

Got a link to where you read it off of? Wikipedia usually monitor's their info and validates it every so often.

I played FFV on my PS2 perfectly fine. No screen jumping whatsoever.

Sure its http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_F..._5#PlayStation

Although it was in the year 2000 that sony said that (according to wikipedia) there is no way to update the playstations so i thought it would still be true.

This is the original link.

Yeah so it is weird it seems, but after playing through the game cmpletely, this problem has not once occurred. Guess I got lucky.

Yeah maybe the did update the ps2 later on......unless yours is one of the early ones.

I thought this problem was for the Playstation 3. I just read very recently that FF5 from Anthology has a minor graphical glitch when saving on the PS3. However, it shouldn't affect the game's playability. It's just hard to see what's going on in the save menu, apparently.

Well thats what it said bout the ps2 as well. But the ps3 is using the ps2 processor (For ps2 games of course) (i think) so maybe the problem will still happen to ff5 gamers. Although some people don't have this problem as bustamo has said.

Sometimes problems can occur with PS1 games on the PS2 if the console's getting old - my old PS2 went stroppy on me and refused to play any PS1 games, DVDs, CDs OR PS2 games with blue undersides... Got a shiny new one now though, and it plays everything (including FFV - I stormed X-Death's castle last night!) like a charm now!
