The ability to organize your data across different drive partitions offers great convenience when trying to find your personal files. If you find that page file is taking up too much space on your Windows drive, you can even create a separate partition on a secondary drive just for that. Right click on the drive you wish to create the partition on and select “Shrink Volume”. If you only have one drive then you will be using the drive labeled “C”. Now all you need to do is select the new drive yo

Final Fantasy 15: Sexy Boy Road Trip won’t be launching on PC until next year, but Square Enix won’t be leaving us high and dry when we finally get our mitts on it. Game director Hajime Tabata revealed that development would continue on the game over the next year. Episode Ignis, the next piece of DLC, was planned to be the final piece of content for Final Fantasy 15, but the fan response has inspired the studio to continue developing DLC. The focus of future content will be on fleshing out the

Though the chances of us ever playing a new, official Half-Life game again are slim, Valve’s seminal series still has its hooks in us, as evidenced by the latest issue of PC Gamer. Ex-Valve employees are similarly plagued by visions of Gordon Freeman, the latest being Cayle George, whose free Half-Life 2 mod is now available on Steam. Half-Life: C.A.G.E.D. George’s worked with Valve, Monolith and Guerilla Games, and was a designer on Portal 2 and Team Fortress 2, as well as being a Half-Life mod

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is likely to remain a Switch exclusive forever, but if it wasn’t for the Nintendo characters, it wouldn’t look all that out of place on PC, especially with its many similarities to X-COM/XCOM. And it turns out that this connection could have been stronger, as X-COM creator Julian Gollop almost worked on it. “The creative director Davide Soliani [the lovely crying man from E3] is a friend of mine from Ubisoft,” Gollop told PCGamesN. “When I was at Ubisoft Sofia he w

Boiled down to its essence, Nier: Automata is a game about slaying robots and looting their metallic corpses. In other words—and as fans of Yoko Taro’s work will already know—Nier: Automata is a really weird videogame. “You don’t often get to work on games where the overriding theme is ‘melancholy,'” Averill said. The question I always grappled with while playing Automata was: how much of this is meant to be weird in Japanese? “There are probably some aspects that are more uniquely associated wi

Not only would they see the panic and fear of CO2’s members, but the EVE community was about to get a firsthand taste for Gigx’s raging temper.

With Monster Hunter: World being shown off at the Tokyo Game Show, Capcom have spilled some more beans, detailing character customisation, crafting and cooking while showcasing some of the game’s open-world exploration in the stage presentation above. The presentation is in Japanese, obviously, but with some English commentary that breaks down what’s being shown off. We also get a look at the game’s opening moments, introducing other monster hunters before moving onto what seems like a pretty ro

One month ago, Quake Champions entered Early Access on Steam and Bethesda’s platform. Evan: James, my feelings for Quake Champions are complex and contradictory. Around that time we ran the headline ” Quake Champions is not a MOBA ,” a clarification that seems hilariously unnecessary today. I understand them as a way to keep Quake Champions free-to-play, they’re just a more awkward fit and implementation than other popular shooters. James: Anyway, I’m really enjoying Quake Champions, but my othe

What’s not mentioned is rituals, powerful spells that the Warhammer 2 factions can use during the Vortex campaign. Total War: Warha

The report, ‘Estimating displacement rates of copyrighted material in the EU’, looks at literature, games, music and films using data from 2014. The statistics used were from the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Poland and Sweden, with Poland and Spain having higher piracy rates than the other four countries.

Bluehole contacted PC Gamer Friday evening to clarify its objection to Fortnite Battle Royale and explain in greater detail some of the statements made in the press release. We use Unreal Engine to develop PUBG, and we pay a large amount of royalties based on the size of our success to Epic Games C.H.

Regarding the present state of VR porn, the major VR companies “pretend that adult VR doesn’t exist,” says Luckey, who called out Facebook, Valve, and the like (though not by name) for not helping to grow the industry. VR employees actually love VR porn, he says, but when they speak at game development conferences they act like they’ve never heard of it. (If any VR developers or Facebook employees would like to anonymously confirm or deny this claim, feel free to email me.) Aside from more VR po

Earlier this week, Blizzard rolled out a big Overwatch update that brought major changes to Mercy and D.Va, as well as the new Junkertown escort map that was revealed last month. Now a smaller patch is out that makes some tweaks to Mercy’s on-fire meter, and removes four maps from the Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch rotations. The Mercy update changed her ultimate ability from Resurrect to Valkyrie, which enhances all of her abilities for 20 seconds and reduces her Resurrect cooldown to ten secon

Once every twelve hours in the Frostpunk demo I’ve managed to get my hands on, I can open the Book of Laws and issue a new decree. Still, it’s a soup law. It’s a law about soup. That’s the first and last laugh I get in the Frostpunk demo, which gives me ten days of in-game time to play. Those are ten incredibly stressful, horrible days full of tough choices and tougher laws.

It’s sometimes hard to let things go, especially when the things in question are as fantastic as The Witcher.

You may or may not be aware, but Geralt is famous for his prowess with the ladies—so much so that CD Projekt recorded 16 hours of sex-scene motion capture data. “What I have discussed [with CD Projekt] is the idea of me being involved somehow,” he said.

Now you can try it out for yourself, if you’re so inclined, as the “alpha v.10” version has been released onto Steam Early Access. The Early Access release covers roughly the first third of the game, totaling 6-7 hours of gameplay. “You will encounter bugs and unfinished bits, and with your help over the course of our time on Early Access all bugs will be squashed, performance will be improved and new content will be made available.” But If Consortium: The Tower can build on the lessons learned

I was surprised yesterday when Divinity: Original Sin 2 producer David Walgrave told me that the damage loop seen in the video above would not be removed. “It appears that it is not a never-ending loop and you’re not doing anything else while you’re doing it,” he wrote. As you can see in the video, however, the trick cycles through a feedback loop that drains a troll’s entire health bar. So even if it is within the confines of Original Sin 2’s spell logic, it’s just a tad OP. With or without the
