It is odd that it seems like we haven't made much headway against the scurge that is loading times in the last couple generations. Obviously for those of us that grew up on cartridges, it's a hard pill to swollow when loading starts to actually interfere with the flow of a game, especially a good game. A few games have done a good job masking load times as other actions in game (Metroid Prime always come to mind), but even then I hope developers and the Big 3 are actually working on ways to reduce or eliminate load times in the coming generation. Knowing our luck, they'll be longer or you'll have to be the "short load time" DLC or something equally as backward.
