Help with options settings for multiple games saves

My sister and I are both playing MGS4 on the same PS3, so we have separate game saves. Trouble is we use different camera settings in options menu. She uses invert and I use normal. The settings are not linked to each game save, it just remembers what was last used so we have to keep changing them before we start playing. Am I missing something?

Re: Help with options settings for multiple games saves

why don't you create another user account on the ps3 for your sister? that way it's almost like she has her own ps3! then it will remember settings for the both of you. just copy her saves over with a usb stick.

Re: Help with options settings for multiple games saves

My brother and I have been playing since day of release. We both have different user accounts and IIRC then the settings are saved seperately.

However, the most annoying thing is that if you are on different acts, then the game has to load each act individually. For example, he is on act 5 whereas i am on Act 3. If he has been playing before me then when i load my save game, the ps3 has to load act 3 again and vice versa. Luckily, it only takes a couple of mins but it is annoying nevertheless.

It does that anyway.
