That's what the hard drive's for. You cache all the data during a cleverly placed cutscene, and stream it from the cache as needed.
Besides, extra memory lets you do lots of things that don't necessarily involve longer load times. You could have more objects in your environment (say, more cars in GTA) or allow procedural generation of textures and geometry (something being worked on for the next Xbox).
