I've noticed the more in depth games that are coming out, the longer the load times are. I was borrowing Sims 2 from a friend and in like 30 minutes I got to play maybe 15 minutes worth of game because everytime I did an action it froze up to load. At this rate I see them releasing a new one in about a year or so, or its going to be to the point where it takes like an hour of loading just to play a 5 minute game.
