Q: The GameShark

®

2 Version 4 does not contain any cheats for my game?

A: The cheats you are looking for may be available on www.gameshark.com. If
not, keep an eye on the website as codes for the particular game may appear at
some point.

Q: I’ve entered some cheats from your website and they don’t work! Why?
A: For all PlayStation 2 games, you must enter the Mastercode otherwise the
cheat will fail. Also, ensure that all the codes for the particular cheat are entered
correctly and ensure the codes are for the correct game.

Q: I’ve found some GameShark cheats and tried them and they do not work.
Why?
A: Ensure that the codes are from the official GameShark website, www.game-
shark.com, or are from another official source such as PlayStation 2 magazines.

10) Frequently Asked Questions – GameShark Memory Manager / Game
Saves
Q: I tried zipping a Game save but it said “This type of file unsupported”. I
also tried to copy it to another memory card but it came up with the same
message. Why?
A: Unfortunately, some game save data cannot be zipped or copied. This is down
to the individual game and some game save data will not be compatible with the
GameShark Memory Manager.

Q: My game won’t load my zipped game saves (aqua colour). Why?
A: No game can load zipped game save files. The game saves must be un-zipped
using the GameShark Memory Manager before they are used with a game. This is
so that the game can recognize it.

Q: Can I download a save from the CD onto my memory card, if I already
have a save for that game on the memory card?
A: Some games will not allow for multiple game saves of the same game to be
stored on a single memory card, so you may have to store multiple saves for cer-
tain games on separate memory cards. Another way of storing more than 1 save
per game on your memory card is to zip your existing saves for your particular
game, then download your new save. This will allow you to have multiple saves for
the same game on your memory card.

Q: Why won’t the GameShark Memory Manager recognize my memory card?
A: The GameShark Memory Manager can only be used with officially licensed
Sony PlayStation

®

2 8MB memory cards. It will not work with any other memory card.

Q: I used the Game Saves section to download lots of Game Saves to my
PlayStation

®

2 memory card, but now it says “Not enough free space on PS2

memory card”. What does this mean?
A: This means your PlayStation

®

2 memory card has no free save space. Use

GameShark Memory Manager to delete or zip some of your saves to free up some
space. You can see how full your memory card is by looking at the memory bar
underneath the Memory Manager side of the screen. Maximum capacity is 8000k.

Q: If I have an existing Game Save, can I unlock cheats for that existing
Game Save, or do I have to start a new game to unlock the cheats?
A: If you have an existing Game Save, you can unlock cheats within your existing
Game Save. If you choose to start from the beginning, you can unlock cheats for a
new game as well.
