Archived from groups: alt>games>elder-scrolls (more info?)

I'm playing the Xbox360 version of Oblivion. The problem I have is the
list of save games are not sorted in date order - they appear to be all
jumbled up. So if I am looking for my most recent save I need to scroll
down the list and find the save with the highest save game number. This
is obviously very annoying.

Also, if I load the game and select the "Continue" option from the title
screen, this *should* load my most recent save. However it loads the
save at the top of my save game list, which is not necessarily the most
recent save.

Does anyone else have this problem? Does the problem exist on the PC
version?

On the PC, my saves always appear in the order of most recently saved,
from the top down. This is true whether I name the save or let the
saves get automatically numbered.

Hmmm the most recently saved game is on the top of the list on my copy.
Sounds like your HD got damaged somehow & may need replacing.

I know what your problem is. You need to make sure that your date and
time is set properly in the console settings. I ran into this problem
becuase I had to send my xbox in for repair, and when I got it back, I
didn't setup the date and time, and all my games were showing up in the
wrong order for a while.

Hope that helps.

Happens every time with new consoles though, my original day one PS2 still
works fine despite the many that needed repairs for not being able to read
discs. There are always some defective consoles in the first batch but many
more that are perfectly fine. But of course naysayers will jump all over
the defective ones even if the percentage is in the normal range for a
consumer electronic product of that nature.

Thanks - this sounds plausible and I actually thought of this myself but
haven't had a chance to check it yet. I've only had the console for a
week and I'm sure that I set up the date and time properly, but I'll
recheck it.

Just checked it and my time/date was wrong after all. When I fixed this
my save games sorted themselves properly. Thanks all!
