Microsoft has released a new video comparing the loading times of The Outer Worlds on the Xbox Series S and the Xbox One S. Thanks to the use of an SSD, the Xbox Series S version of the game loads in under 12 seconds, while the Xbox One S version takes 53 seconds to load.

View it below:

The Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S will launch on November 10 for $499 and $299, respectively. Pre-orders will begin on September 22.

The real "load time" issue for me these days is the ten minutes (only a slight exaggeration) it takes to get into an activity in Destiny. Unfortunately, I don't think they new gen SSDs will do much about this problem with online games. I hope that the industry will address this problem moving forward though. As more and more gaming is online, these insanely long waits to get started steal more and more of our gaming time.

Series S is too good of a deal for them not to be selling it at a loss.

I think it is safe to say that all of the 9th gen consoles will be sold at a loss, at least initially.

That is a great improvement, but I was thinking those would take 2-5 seconds... but well 12s is basically no time at all in my book. Retries should be very fast as well.

Could be it. But as I said, 12s is plenty fast in my book.
