My first PSP bug
I got my US import copy of Metal Gear AC!D today and put the UMD disk into my Japanese import PSP. Started the game and went through the slow game learning cycle (well it's written for kids).
I got to the 1st stage and saved the game. I then shut down and went to do something sensible (well maybe slightly more productive than playing PSP games).
Later in the evening I turned on the PSP and loaded the game, went to load the saved version which went fine, but it returns you to the "options" menu instead of the main "start" menu so you cant play the game. The only thing you can do is hit the "home" key which returns you to the PSP main menu (i.e. out of the game completely) or you can navigate from the options menu back to the game start screen but that's like starting the game from the PSP itself.
Maybe I'll have another play and start from scratch again and try and save once I've got into the game proper. It could be that as the game hasn't really started you cant restore from there, but it does look like a bug.
