Just noticed a strange typing error on the loading screen

It is as Frau Kaleun has said, it is the name of your savegame. It is a stock game bug that does not effect game play.

According the above it doesn't stand for anything, it's just the name of one of Paul's savegames that a stock bug caused to be added to the end of the loading screen messages when he fired up the game.

I'm guessing it's just a coincidence

Either that or the game just draws some random piece of text from some random file every time the "error" occurs.

I've always seen the name of a savegame, but then I stopped looking for it once I realized it was a glitch that wouldn't cause any other problems... so who knows?

Sigh. Does anyone ever use the "Search" feature here anymore? This question has been asked and answered 10's of times over the last five years!

The problem is nothing to worry about, it's simply that SH3 has a limited number of display characters on the screen. Reloading a save game decreases the number of characters, due to the save game text taking up some of the otherwise free character space. The anomaly you see is simply part of the save game name overwriting the News text.
