PSP load time video

nitzmoff · Mar 2006

This isn't mean't to start a DS vs. PSP debate, but I found this video really funny. It's some new wrestling game for the PSP and in total contrary to the nature of handheld gaming; namely providing a quick and immediate timekiller, it takes a whopping 7 mins or so to start a new game and play.

Loading times from hell:

I don't know why I watched that whole thing... I must have something better to do.

That's horrifying.

Now I remember why I stopped console gaming since around 96

Load times are for suckers. How many minutes did you wait for your HD gaming experience?!

Just slap some more RAM in it.

well you can always pre-load it and set your psp to hibernate. but yeah, ridiculous. however, i guess the fault is more on the side of the developer who didn't tailor the game to the hardware all too well.

That shouldn't have gone through manufacturer approval. Period.

Ye gods. We wouldn't have gotten one of ours through in that state. Load times are always problematic on the PSP but this is ridiculous.
