I just bough a used PSP from Gamestop a few days ago along with final fantasy VII: crisis core. Now being its the only game I have, I have one worry and its the load times. I would like to know if CC has load times over 8 seconds long.I'm starting to think its the PSP. I get long load times when the game boots up. Before battles start sometimes Zack stands there for a good 5-8 seconds before i actually get control and then there are the summons battles which i have not enjoyed much due to the fact every time a summon is about to do its special it takes about 10+secs before the cinema. One last thing these extended load times also happen onwhenever a mission is about to start and when it ends.

I worry because I have not heard anywhere that the game has really lonng and frequent loading times.

Anyways ill appreciate if someone gets back to me on this.

At times, the game's load times seem lengthy. The situations your describing however seem a little unusual. It has happened to me where Zack will pause before a battle or the system will lag before a cutscene or cinema. But not as frequently as your describing. I'd get it checked out. Or maybe check another game to see if the same thing happens.

I've had pretty much no loading times at all. Then again I do have a slim if that matters. The only time the game loads for me is after I die and when I first boot the game up.

I don't have any real problem with load times... I've only had maybe two instances where the game lagged unnaturally in 20 hours of play.

I think I remember hearing somewhere that the old PSP 1000's, the original PSP's, can have some really bad loading issues with this game. The Slim improved loading times across the board... and newer games take advantage of the new technology.

I'm guessing a used PSP is probably an old 1000... which means it very well could be your problem. Some old games run minisculely faster on the Slim, others speed up conciderably, seconds faster.

I see, I will test some older games, if the reason behind it is the slim one improving load times of newer games then wow... my purchase was a big waste. It is truly killing the experience for me at the moment.
Thank you for all the replies.
