RE5 Gold Question (SPOILERS)

[PlopPlop]

Just got the PS3 version through the post today only to find out that I need to have the game completed and saved already to acess the extra chapters!?!?!?

My gamesave has gone bye byes somewhere! Does anybody know just how much of the game I'll have to play before I can get into the new chapters?

This is REALLY annoying, I've waited 'til now to be able to afford the DVD version of the game to play the new missions and I can't ?!?!?!?!?!?

You have to reach the respective break points for each chapter, I believe.

So... well... Desperate Escape pretty much requires you to go "all the way".

Maybe you can breeze through things on Amateur... or evt. get someone else who has the game to send you a game invite (that sometimes allows you to permanently unlock content. Have someone else with Desperate Escape and Lost in Nightmares invite you to their games in those respective game modes and either finish them in co-op or drop back to title screen and play from there... it might permanently unlock them.)

Thanx for that Carnivol, just about as much as I expected.

I'll just bomb through it on the easiest mode I think and then have something to look forward to, it's just annoying as I can't even figure out where my games save has gone! I have both the 360 and the PS3 versions, I played the 360 version loads and then got the PS3 version quite a while after and only played through it once just for kicks, but I have the trophies to prove it but not the game save!

Not just for this game but for any game on the new generation of consoles, it's a pity that the respective companies don't tie the same progression/save information into your user profile/gamertag. It would be a hell of a lot easier, especally if like me and my nephew recently who have lost saves and had to start games again. My nephew lost his Forza 3 save through a glitch and had to start all over again from 2/3s of the way through the game?

Right, I've just open up the first extra chapter, Lost In Nightmares, and for me it happened in the rank screen just after Chapter 3.1 The Swamp Lands Village that ends that area!

And VERY enjoyable Lost In Nightmares was too!
