I don’t think you understood what I said.

I am saying that the article is probably wrong. That it is most likely a much better savings then one second. As for your second point, I think it’s MS’s policy to not allow a game to be released for the 360 unless it can be played on all 360’s. Being that not all 360’s have a HD, you can’t require a game to utilize one. CapCom decided to not make it an option (it’s not an option on the PS3 either; you are forced to do it).

That’s why it’s not DLed to the HD on the 360. It has nothing to do with disk access performance.

1) Console were made for EASY use.
Get a disc, insert into console and PLAY.
NO PATCHES, NO INSTALLATIONS.

That were one of many advantages of consoles over PC.

2) Uncharted DON`T HAVE INSTALLATIONS and DOWNLOADING times.

3) Because DMC4 went MULTIPLATFORM, NOW PS3 owners have to INSTALL 5GB.

It`s NOT a BIG issue, BUT this SHOULDN`T be on CONSOLES, so and PATCHES.

 PRECISELY

 If it was more than half the loadtime decreased, it would be noticeable. When it's something relatively small like one second at a time - out of five or six second loadtimes - it's not going to stand out.

But when you get a game, you want to play it THEN. You don't plan on getting a game, popping it in, then waiting for it to install. You plan on getting a game, popping it in, and running it. It's really, really fanboyish and foolish to insist that someone should look beyond that and "go take a shower" or "go to the bathroom".

 And I can confidently say I'd feel the same about ANY console game, regardless of if it was SSBB, SMG, Halo3, or DMC4. It doesn't matter. If you're playing it on the console, it'd better be ready to play immediately or have some significantly improved gameplay that you get from installing it.

regardless of the moral code of gaming ethics of whether or not it should have an install time,
it still sounds like an advantage to have no load times. It sounds like evolution to me, in a small way.

But I agree that it should be an option to install it, not a requirement.

I agree, but there are advantages as well. The PS3 now has the ability to receive much more faithful ports of PC orientated games as well. Technically it's an advantage to have the ability to install games partly onto the harddrive.

I just like how a topic so lame is being so blown out of proportion, oh damn, I've waited 6 MONTHS, to get this game into my household since hearing about it, oh shit, I have to wait another 20 minutes, Conclusion: PS3 can suck my balls.

Didn't unreal tournament offer something similar, just on a smaller scale. UT3 loaded just fine without the install, and faster with it >_>; I doubt this is an issue with the PS3's capabilities, I think Capcom is just dumb.

 The Unreal Tournament III install was optional, but it took a similar amount of time to install.

Also, watch out people who have played PC games, apparently we're fanboyish and foolish because time for installing might not bother us as much as a console person. 

 Yah, I consider the non-optional folly to be Capcoms mistake. I would understand people being upset if they installed it and saw similar or worse performance than the 360's version, then I could chalk it up to development learning curve, but thats not the case here, apparently the install boosts loading to be a third of the 360's >_>; which to me is pretty damn awesome.

And yeah anyone saying that "gamers don't want to shower or do something when they get home blah blah blah" can seriously grow up lol. Does it suck? Sure, they made it mandatory, which is dumb. Can you get over it? Man if you can't, seriously don't get the game >_>; or better yet buy it on the 360 to show how much you care. I find it so funny that people are just DYING to find problems with the PS3. I mean seriously, the whole install once you download a demo. It's what, 10 minutes out of your life to play something your already unsure of >_>; get real please x.x; a minor inconvenience at it's worse.

Obviously the better devs know how to incorperate a feature, Epic did an awesome job by making it optional. If Capcom relied on it because they didn't know the hardware, at least they took some measure to make the game not only playable, but better for us PS3 owners. Hell I'd take a lengthy install for the Orange Box to not have to deal with any of it's BS problems.  

Oh my god.... the loading times on The Orange Box were terrible. Especially when I was given the PC version for Christmas a week later and quick loading and general loading times were like ten seconds or less (not exactly counting the time to launch the game itself). It was terrible to do a quicksave and fall to my death ten seconds later only to have to wait literally like 20-30 seconds to start playing again and it really started working on my nerves when I rented the PS3 version.

 Capcom confirmed this was to reduce load times:

 "What Capcom did state though is that once it is installed on the PS3, Devil May Cry 4 has load times similar to that of old Super Nintendo Games, meaning no load times at all.

Capcom stated that gamers will be impressed of how fast the game loads."
