I was playing in Wal-Mart the other day....PGR 3 the demo took 2 MINUTES to load from XBOX 360 dashboard to game. I don't think it had the hard drive, maybe that's why.


What is that about? And 1:00 boot times on my PC? Last I checked it was an Athlon 64, not a Commodore 64.


I was born in the 16-bit generation, but I'm still impatient.


I dunno, maybe it's just me, has anyone else gotten frutrated at "modern" gear taking FOR-FREAKING-EVER to get the thing done?

I've never played an Xbox 360.  All I know is that load times for certain PS2 games are pretty long and annoying, so I sympathize. Smiley
