Have they ever pissed you off, made you a bit frustrated, or just plain ruined the mood?

I cant remember what game I was playing but everytime u failed your objective u had to wait for the level to reload. Burnout 3 is pretty annoying with loading times but it makes up for it.

I started off in the Commodore 64 days with cassette games, which literally would take minutes to load. So anything after that doesn't bother me too much. I've never really come across load times that have ruined a game for me.

If you're "in the mood", you shouldn't be playing games anyway.

i second that. I hate the loading times in pgr3. The rest of the game is fantastic fun though.

Battlefield2 also has long load times at like 30 -60 seconds (although this is more understandable what with the maps being huge and all the online players)

Burnout 3 & Revenge, Rainbow Six 3, F1 2002, but the worst i've encounted is NFS: High Stakes, I loved the 2 player "Be the Cop" but the load time was like 10 Minutes and half the time the game FROZE while loading!

BattleField 2. Seriously, you'd go to the toilet, get something to eat, stall around, come back and it would still be loading. ARGH!

it's one of the big reasons I hate the PS2 and why I'm probably never going to get a PSP.

yeah the loading and excessive amount of menu screens is annoying, but the game is still great overall. It would be amazing if they cut the loading down to less than 10 seconds.

YES. When I got Urbz: Sims in the city, i thought i'd really like that game cause i am a fan of the sims, but jeeez, the loading times were off the hook. I didn't even get to the second location of the game, I just quit. It was more loading than playing.

Lol Yeah. But in Burnout Revenge, every time you restarted the race, it had to reload the level again! I don't get it! The world, the cars and everything is already loaded into the memory of the console, isn't it?

The Wii has good loading times, esspecially for a game like Zelda. It only takes like 5 seconds to start the game.

I couldn't play motorstorm because of the loading times. There are a lot and they're painfully long.
