SW2 doesn't really need quick-saves. The in-level checkpoints are very
liberally scattered and while in the "hub areas"exiting the game at
any time preserves current state unless in the middle of certain
battles.....  However, it would still be nice to have a few user
save-points optionally available in the hub areas.
