Forums - Gaming Discussion - Loading comparison

 Hi Everybody,

 

I am not gonna pump out tons of statistics this time because I dont have any of those nextgen consoles yet. But I'd like to collect a vast data base of the loading times of games on next generation consoles and especially Xbox360 vs PS3 since Wii is not on par with the other two, though it wont harm to include those numbers too.

 For a better comparison, the multiplatform games not exclusives are a good indicator but I still want to include them too as we could compute average loading times or the exclusives may appear on other platforms as well.  So lets begin with system loading times, followed by the games.

 In case I encounter different loading numbers for the same game, I will either get an average or choose the overwhelming one and simply eliminate those which are inconsistent with the rest of them.

 I hope you help me build a data base with loading times on both games.

 Thanks in Advance.

 No. Loading is not a matter of horsepower, so you sure as hell can include the Wii.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Well, I said that because wii will have vastly different graphics and different size textures etc, not about the horsepower.

More stuff to load means more loading times. Easy enough. 360 dvd drive is faster than ps3 blu-ray drive. So in short Wii fastest 360 second PS3 third Though with sony adding compression to the ps3 developer stuff (playstation edge) the 360 and ps3 may differ slightly. Not to mentionion ps3 loading off hdd etc. In short. Don't worry about it, none of them are overly fast.



Yes

the only time i notice loading on a Wii is trying to get onto a channel, most channels are good (about 5 secs) but the shop channel seems to take at least 10 but can be nearly 30....it's a good job i don't use it much.

games

wii sports and wii play: must be less than 2 seconds (i am assuming loading is when the screen goes black.)...not much to load on these two so it's not surprising.

SSX: min 5 secs max 10 when loading anything

twilight princess: no idea as most of it is hidden like when riding through the windy bits between the fields

 Yahh um no, way to post false info that you cant back with anything legit.



I'm pretty sure the Wii has the shortest loading times, I mean, it has less info to load, the drive must be faster and I think its RAM has the lowest latency of the three

hahaha it doesnt really matter really I would put ps3 1st becuz when ur loading resistance all you have to do is press a button and its done, the only somehwat slow loads is in tony hawk and thats it the other games load fast very fas.

 wow your completely wrong. 1- Wii 2- PS3 3- 360.

 Reason being is that most PS3 devs will be developing their games to install things to the HDD which will also fast as heck or even no load times. The 360 devs dont really have that ability do to the core being designed without an HDD which means the HDD isnt standard. The PS3 games whoch load the games onto the HDD makes thngs way faster, but even MotorStorm which doesnt install a single thing on the HDD loads faster then most 360 titles.

Oh guys, we are yet to see which machine will be fastest to load, this is why I am trying to track things here. IMO, Wii is gonna have the shortest load times because of the relatively small size of the data and similiar dvd technology with X360 but this is not the point. Instead of speculation, we should share our numbers objectively, I think... And I will share all this information that I gather here. So far, -TWRoO- gave a decent answer for the wii, thanks pal :)

what about other games, come on!
