Ok so fairly straitforward, I have oblivion on the 360, and I really liked the game. I would like to start a new character and get back into the game but the loading times are fucking murderous. My cousin says the PS3 version loads faster, but then again he's a total sony fanboy. So is this true?
for reference, the loading times are roughly:
Loading your character when the game first starts: about 45 seconds added to whatever the zone you're in when you load
Entering your standard room of a house: about 5-10 seconds if it's small and empty, but can take up to 25 if there's a lot of NPCs like in guild halls and such.
Entering an area of a fortress/dungeon with a large number of NPCs: 20 seconds
Entering a semi crowded town/city: between 20-45 seconds
Entering the outside world/spread out countryside: 5-10 seconds, but you'll run into points where the game will stop and give you some "loading area" text from time to time.
This gets really annoying for quests where you have to constantly go in and out of houses and things of that nature. So if anyone here has the PS3 version, is it any better or is it pretty much the same?
