if we lined up maps all next to eachother in a 3 by 3 map grid, you can see a maximum of 4 maps at a time. This does away with room by room and lets you walk smoothley within an uninterupted world. If i remember correctly crystalis does this quite well. But i do know that it loaded up different area's if you went out of one into another. hmm SNES zelda again scrolls but is also seperated into different area's if i was scrolling and trying to just load up one map at a time it would be disasterous because if i was at the top left corner of one map i would see these other 3 maps one above the current map, one to the left of the current map and one above the one to your left whish is also to the left of the one above you.
