Saving Games and Profiles....A Hassle?

Hello, I have decided that I really badly want a PS3, and I was Wondering if it was as much of a hassle to save games and load profiles as the Xbox 360, Because every time I play a 360 I usually have to restart the game or go back to the dashboard at least twice just to load the right saved game.

Depends on the game, I guess. But so far, it has been easy to save and load with all the PS3 games I owned.

Cool...Thanks a bunch guys.
