The thing is that I play many games with annoying loading times. And I endure the pain. But for an impatient man like myself it's just that, pain. I guess I simply like games too much, hence the enduring.
To elaborate a bit more: if a game has a long loading time at the beginning and then is a quick and polished gem afterwards, I'm happy. If there are many loading screens during the rest of the game, it's horrible. But it depends on the game as well, like many before have said. For example, I've been playing Dragon Age: Origins on the PS3 and there's some annoying loadings in the beginning of the game, when you die as well and even brief pauses during gameplay itself. But I do enjoy the game so I endure them.
So, it's a case by case basis on whether I endure it or just throw the game aside. But if I endure it, it means I don't like them, I do however like the game enough to put up with it.
