I'll go back and finish Mass Effect. Elevator rides. That is all.

In general, any RPG with a lot of loads from section to section should benefit, although even on HDD, the load times are still going to be very far from "unnoticeable."

Texture pop ins should be somewhat reduced for GoW and GoW2 although I'd play the PC version to see how much of an improvement it will realistically be since it already plays off HDD.

The load times on those games in particular aren't noticeable thanks to the use of streaming textures, so there won't be much change if any, other than less pop in while the game is playing.

I've been thinking about those elavator rides.  I'm not sure they would be reduced.  They have dialogue and the elevator runs at a set speed.  Even though the game might be done loading, I wouldn't be surprised if it lets the elevator run it's course.

 

It would shorten it, because the developers don't know the condition of the disk and it might take 2-3 passes to pull the information out properly if its scratched. I would say the elevator rides are variable in length (The ones without dialogue anyway, which is most of them)

Its too bad they didn't make the elevator sound like a thrashing disk drive, that way it'd cover up the noise.
