Quake III Revolution on the PS2. The game itself was a good laugh, but it took up to 3 or 4 minutes for each match to load up, which got on my nerves.

I seem to remember Conker's Bad Fur Day on the N64 as being one of the most infuriating. You had to sit through the entire "Conker slashing the N64 logo" thing every time. Really pissed me off, that did.
I think skippable starting credits are a necessity tbh. And an option to turn off menu 'fades' so that when you select something on the menu it goes to the submenu automatically, not after some ****ty 5 minute fade.
Other than that, there are a number of good ones. I also like the opening of Halo, and the background Halo on the menu looks great . I'm also a big fan of minimalist menus, don't really like complications. I think one of the most confusing had to be Extreme G 3. Just couldn't get my head round it :S.
And yes, as with many things, the DC and GC are probably the best for the shortest loading/waiting times. Meh.

BUT! THE SWOOP RACES!!!!GAH!
When you were going for the faster times, one mistake and the race was pointless. If you screwed up, you had to wait ages for the registration area to load, and then there's a stupid cutscene mocking your loss. There's one place that's pretty bad, but another place is terrible, with an overlong cutscene with no point to it. Then you have to go through the menus. Thank gosh you can skip the stupid alien speech.

I find the waits between restarting a level after dying far more frustrating than lengthy intro/developer logos. IMO there's nothing worse than wanting to get stuck back in and having to sit through endless menu cycles/loading times just to get back to where you were. MDK2 and Star Wars Starfighter were both main offenders for me in my early PS2 days.
And to think that once upon a time I'd happily wait 5 mins again and again for Creatures 2 to load up...

I love when I quit a game, I won't say which one and they ask me if I want to save. No that's ok just erase all the work I've accomplished, I do it again tomorrow. Of course I want to save! Am I sure I want to save over my old save? Well I picked the slot didn't I.
Do game companies need that much validation? Can't they accept that we always want to save when we quit and we always want to save over our old ones.
Summoning FMVS suck!
