How big was that save file? Any technical problems? I just got the Ultimate Edition last night for PS3.
18 megs, then again my last save is Save #1680. No technical problems associated with save file save for me. Though I am playing on 360 so that may have something to do with it.

, then I decided it would make more sense to be a NFT playthrough as a Desert Ranger.
