As far as I know, my save files being corrupt is a completely random event. I haven't shut the console off while saving, loading, etc. My hard drive is in properly and in the memory under system settings it does not identify the files as being corrupt yet they are.

Essentially I have 2 save files, one for backup, and I noticed one had questionmarks for the picture rather than noel's face and it lacked a time played slot and such. After trying to save over this save slot, the game stated "save operation failed". I was intriqued by this so I attempted to make 2 brand new saves and the same result.

The only hope I have right now is that one of my backup saves is still alive but as far as I know it is volatile and likely to fail as well. I can save ONLY that one still valid save. Creating new saves, saving over my other save copy, and so on will come up with the "save operation failed" prompt.

I've tried loading the corrupt saves and I get "load failed". What's worse as well is that I only found one thing on google of someone having a similar problem. I don't know how this happened to me. Please help.

TLDR; my saves are corrupted and I cannot fix them, advice please.
