you think YOUR loading times were bad....

well i did some research on the games i had and it turns out that some of the games i had had longer loading times and were more numerous and I was no bothered by them. So.... All i have to conclude from my research is

Spoiler:

games tested:
Crash bash
Mercenaries 1 & 2
Team Fortress 2
Control:Sonic 06

SNG was worse for different reasons. Did you consider that in your research?

Don't forget Crash Wrath of Cortex for PS2. Loading times were roughly twice as long for levels 1/3 of the size.

Agreed. Though, it was one of the very first games released for the PlayStation 2, and it was still a good game.

It's not only the length of the loading screens, it's how many there are.

I didn't find Next-gen's loading screens annoying. Probably because Shadow the Hedgehog's loading screens bugged the crap out of me.

i only looked at 3 games compared to sonic 06 and only 1 had loading screens all over the place and that would be mercs 2

Plus the loading screens aren't the only things to gripe about, and some Sonic fans are by nature overly critical.

Indeed. I really wouldn't criticize a games loading screens if it was good. It's just those were remarkably long.

The first few loading screens in Half-Life 2 were very long
