Default Load Times, A Now Or Later Situation: You Choose

The loading times on the Zune are pretty bad which is understandable given what is driving the software. When loading assets for the first level in GW3 (sounds mostly) the Zune takes a couple of seconds where-as my PC (Quad core) is instant.

So the question is, when do you want the load times?

1. Longer loads when the game starts, but getting into gameplay and changing levels is fast.
2. Longer loads for when the gameplay starts and levels change, but the game starts up fast.
3. Spread it out, the UI may be a little sluggish while loading, but the game will startup fast and so will the gameplay.
4. Forget sounds, compress everything to the max and make everything as fast as possible. Forget quality, we want speed!

Edit: Wow. Failed at posting the poll. Can only post the poll one minute after the post? Lame.
