  | PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?I played my first PS3 game last night and is it me or is it fairly s-l-o-w? First off the game had to install and then it had to download the latest update for the game and then it had to actually load and it doesn't seem to do any of that quickly... I need to learn some patience. It's also taken me the best part of 3 hours to download a 1.5gig demo. It's not a console for the impatient. But on the plus side it's lasted a week without breaking which is 6 days more than my (first) 360 lasted.

| Re: PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?download speed is down to your internet. the loading and updating can be annoying when all you want to do is have a quick half hour on a game but that half hour is taken up with a system update. I think you get used to it though and if you use it regular then the updates don't pile up so don't take as long to download

| Re: PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?Loading times also depend on the game, some load faster than others.

| Re: PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?It was Vegas 2 I played, it just seemed to be pretty slow to get going... no complaints once it started though.

| Re: PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?The ps3 is quite buggy, or atleast some of the games are anyway. Gta 4 keeps crashing and it crashes the whole thing when i turn my headset on. If i try to quit the game it restarts the console, and does anybody experience LOUD fan noise while playing? I also get it while watching films, which is very anoying!

| Re: PS3 Loading Speed... Is It Done Yet?have you got the 60gb or the 40gb one, i know the 40gb is meant to be better because they use the new CPU's in it so a smaller fan can be used Quote:
