This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...

  • Activision Explains Why Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Uses 235GB of Drive Space

    You will once again need a whole ass drive just for one Call of Duty game.

    Those who dove into the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 campaign early access have found that their total install size weighs in at just shy of 235GB of SSD space occupied.

    These thoughts shared by Capcom came from the latest upload to Capcom's Research & Development...
