Sorry? Do you mean as in RPG? Or do you mean computer.

If so, the spectrum and C64 both do. Why, you thinking of
sampling loading noise? Spectrum is better and lots of
artists have sampled it...

used to wreck head when you'd try to load games and have to
rewind the tape all the time, hours and hours of fun?!

Cool ones were recorded both sides... now, multi-load games
were a different matter :)

I remember F-19 Stealth Fighter from Microprose on the C-64.
I only had cassettes and the loading was about 15 mins! You
can bet your ass I took those missions seriously. One fucked
up take-off and you paid the price..another 15 mins.
