Games should not have load time

Why do games load these days? The developers should work on zero load time in their games. It's 2011, I thought we only needed loading because the CD or LOW SPEC machines.

zero load times is an impossibility with current technology. at best you assume we're working off a hard drive, at worst you have to assume loading off a dvd. neither of these is instantaneous. the closest you can get is low load times, or loading nearby areas while traveling through one, which takes ram that can't be used by something else in the game

DOOM has ZERO loading, people knew how to make games back then, today we only got faggots like Cliffy Bee

Ha, that's easy.  You just enjoy a whiff of coke while waiting to load, and you'll feel awesome!!

Some games today HAS zero loading, at least in-game. Minecraft and I think Tony Hawks Underground loads new areas continuously as you play.

If you mean loading time during start-up as well, try the old-school game Bloodwych. It had a few seconds worth of loading (the ENTIRE game), and if you port it to a modern computer, it would be such a small fraction of a second that you wouldn't notice it. The result was a dungeon hack that lasted many hours - zero loading time in-game.

I normally have a pepsi or sunkist when that happens.

Load times will sadly never end

especially with the new higher quality games and more carachter development which take up more room in hte data it is more if an impossibility that there would be no loading time.

And if you really think hard about it, remember that in this fucked up world, nothing is perfect.
