During loading screens, aside from looking at hints, by pressing the face buttons, you can cause symbols from the original Shadow of the Beast to appear in the upper right hand corner. Depending on the sequence of buttons you press, you may unlock loading screen minigames. These games have no effect to actual gameplay and are merely a way to pass the time during loading screens.
