All right, what game would you say has the absolute best loading screens?
I'm talkin' screens which genuinely entertained you while you were waiting for shit to get together behind the scenes.
My vote? As stupid as the game was, MadWorld for the Wii. That one load screen where the poor little stick figure just rolls endlessly (and dismembered) on top of a rocket train made me laugh every time.
Loading Screen
Concept »
Loading Screens are specific screens that are displayed while a game is loading resources so that the player has something to distract them while the game loads. Loading Screens can be images, text or even mini-games - and sometimes a combination of all three.
The Best Loading Screen
DMC had nice ones that were breakable, I used to like button mashing just to see if I could break it.

oh man, I don't remember which one, but one of the Test Drive games on the PS2 let you play pong during the loading screen. It kept track of your score and everything. Sometimes I would sit there for like ten minutes even after it was done loading just playing pong.
Man, I thought my thread got deleted, I didn't even know there was a "loading screens forum" haha
that's pretty awesome
" Definitely The Darkness, although sometimes I wish they did a few more to prevent repetitiveness. "Agree 100%
Symphony of the Night.

" Killzone 2 loading screen is fun to mess with. "Personally I hate loading screens but these two are the most memorable, The Darkness popt in my head right away, Killzone is more of a nice looking one that you really don't mind looking at because it gives you a feeling of how good the game looks ......
NBA Live has had a shoot around loading screen for a while now but it started as a way to mask the incredibly long load times so I can't say I like it. I really prefer the 2K series over the Live series overall.
