In PS2/XBox/GC development, are the C++ >> file stream stuff usually used for loading files?
e.g.
file >> my_variable
for reading in my_variable

You see it is used all the time on the code I'm working on, but I always preferred static buffer reads myself, I could never stand all the cout/cin weird stuff. I would have though C style loading suited consoles more. What do you think?
