When X=1 it sure isn't very different.... ;)

They'll just make the games need more power - so the loading times will stay the same. is there any difference in loading times between now and 5 years ago?

I can remember waiting up to 45 mins for my commodore 64 to load games and half the time nothing happened at the end of it.So dont start complaining about a few seconds wait these days.I spent the best part of my child hood watching loading screens, so count yourselves V.lucky we've progressed since those days.:)

2142 loading times actually take longer than 1942, especially after a graphics setting change.

It sounds weird but actually, my 1942 loads slower than my 2142... Both are on high settings/1280x1024.

There is actually, I load pretty much faster the recent games than it was loading on my old PC.

Man, if 80 cores becomes standard, just imagine what games will be like. Imagine what you could do with a lightsaber! Ahhhhh, need now.
