Longest Loading TimeWhat game do you blokes think had the longest loading time My vote is for "Driller"
OK. Not actually the game, but I do remember the save game option on Tirnanog being as long as the game itself. When Dun Darach came out they managed to limit that option to about 20 seconds. -

The dude from Dun Darach whose name I still probably pronounce incorrectly:

I nominate Dun Darach. I was expecting some kind of proto-Sims game. Get a job, hire accomodation etc. In reality it was just lolopping around from one location to another, all of which looked the same and had nothing with which to interact -

Tir Na Nog was okay but I thought Dun Darach and Marsport had a bit more atmosphere. It's Marsport that gets loaded up more often though.
