Under the Hood - PSP Load Times

none of the games i have, i would notice, the longest would be darkstalkers, but thats hardly noticeable, and thats only in the opening of the game lol

Iso's sure do slow down load times. but i seen my mates smach down via raw we wer there for days............

First off, GAmestop is anit everything that they cant rip people off with, and since peopel hardly ever trade in psp games because they dont give anythign for trade, they dont liek psp as much because they cant resell a game as new 50+ times.


BUt, Ive got a few.

Midnight club 3... OMG.. 2-3 minutes to load a race, but then again there are a lot of textures and models it has to load up.

Syphon filter seems liek it takes a long time to load, but once it actully gets into the game you dont notice.

Infected takes a little whiel to load but there is so much goign on its understandable.

I for one dont really mind the loading times.. BUt as for it being portable, sony should have put a little bit more memory in there for it to load the games up faster...


Theres nothign more screwed up to when your on a drive and want to play a game, and by the time you actully get into the game and start playing BOOM you are at you destination.

At the saemt iem, I think the loading times are a good thing for those moronic kids who play there psp's at school when they are tryign to learn, cuts down on the becoming more stupid by the second

I don't think the loading times are so bad.
I've never tried Smackdown vs. Raw 06, and never will, mainly because of the loading, but also because 07 is almost here. But I've seen the video of it loading.

I don't think 1-2 minutes is too long for a game to load into gameplay. If others think so, I guess have good patience?

all the games i have, besides madden 06, load as quickly as most ps2 games. madden takes ages.......

I'll deal with the load times to have these big beautiful games in my little PSP...I got sick of cart limitations making titles for GBA/DS suck because they tried to make a big game and had to code for a tiny cart leaving out textures, highly compressing audio etc....or they make the presentation look good and can't even fit collision detection routines in...

Could you imagine GTA:LCS DS? Too fit a game that big you'd lose voiceovers, graphics etc....

I like my DS for what it is....I really like my PSP...1.5 forever!

Tony Hawks Underground 2 Remix has a long load time too, but its not all that annoying...

what else?......Um! yeah...

Prince of Persia Revelations, takes too god damn long for its own good.... Goddamnit...

Crash Tag Team Racing takes so long to load, which doesnt bother me either cause its sh*t so i dont play it...lol

but games like tales of eternia is like bang and away you go...

But what is annoying is the load time when you go into a battle in Breath of Fire III, god i hate it but i love the game so morally i win....

I know they can't do this, but it would have been a good comparison between the UMD load time and the ISO load time. It is really night and day when comparing the two.

Maybe Sony will realize this and create downloadable PSP Games in ISO formats.

I think alot of the load times are really bad,I was downgrading a friends PSP yesterday and he had Madden in there.I couldn't believe how long it took to load.
Now my copy of tekken on the other hand(the only psp game I play)smokes when it comes to load time :)

Games seem to load faster when you use devhook and speed it up to 333mhz since the processor can output the data being read faster. :)
