Though the initial lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, Wolfire amended their suit in May 2022 and the legal battle was back on.

It may have taken almost two years, but we are now starting to see some of the documents that...

    Alan Wake 2 PC Requirements Include DLSS and FSR

    The need for upscaling is becoming the norm for PC releases.

    Remedy Entertainment released the PC system requirements for Alan Wake 2 via Twitter. Like several games released this year, Alan Wake 2 will also need some beefy hardware to even run the game on Low settings, 1080p resolution, and a whopping 30FPS. Hold onto your butts, because we're again looking at a game that is sure to receive several complaints about not being optimized.

    At a bare minimum, you will need...

    NetherRealm Aware of Mortal Kombat 1 Error Logs Eating up Drive Space

    Each crash is another 1GB taken up.

    Mortal Kombat 1 players on PC are probably losing storage space 1GB at a time and they don't even know it. If you ever had Mortal Kombat 1 crash on the PC, a crash report was automatically created. So, if you had the game crash five times, you would have five crash reports sitting on your system.

    While this usually isn't a problem for most games, Mortal Kombat 1's crash reports take up a whopping 1GB of storage space each.
