both awesome and kind of sad. the console architeques so obviously did't give gaming a high priority in their design.

What? Please go into more detail what you mean.

does this really need explination?  if an external HDD can improve ryse load times by 16 seconds then obviously the HDD they choose to sell you as part of the xbox one purchases from the store wasn't choosen with a high priority on making games load fast.    it's great that you can see this kind of improvement,.. it's ridiculous that you have to buy another hardrive and dangle 1 more thing off of your "ONE" box in order to get the kind of fast start up speed inherent in all ps4s.

Yes, it does. The HDD in PS4 is as bad as any cheap 500GB HDD. And there are other reasons why a system disk is slower than an external drive...
