*Xbox One Instant switching experience -- a way to modernize gaming; All games are loaded to hard drive; faster. Can play game before it's fully installed and/or do other things with the Xbox One's system features (like watch a video).
*"Loading screens will probably be up to the developer." -- But they overall want to see it reduced and/or gone.
