  Alan Wake 2 PC Requirements Include DLSS and FSR

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

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.

  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.
