There's an obvious solution to that, which I think most large-world 
games use, even on the PC (due to slow transfer between CPU and GPU 
RAM).  IIRC on GTA3 if you hacked the cars to go really fast, you could 
drive to places before the high-resolution textures and models had 
loaded, then after a second or so everything would suddenly get more 
detail :-)
