      Loading screens in a game take longer than two seconds and don’t have the benefit of running one time before the game starts and adding surround sound support. So you would rather be greeted with a black screen as a game with less features loads instead?

      Great idea.

        People in this thread don’t want to waste 2 seconds per use of a video game on a logo screen, but will happily waste the day discussing it.

                  Don’t really care, honestly.

                  Still not name calling.

              It is actually unreal to be downvoted for saying this. What a place to be.

            The irony of not wanting to “waste time” when you’re about to play a video game, too.
