Join Discussion →Just gave RE2 a shot. Pretty nice. The RT is mild. Pretty sure they've just patched in some code from Village but still looks good.
It was already updated so I don't know how big that patch was. RE3 is 22.3 GB and RE7 is a whopping 51.3. Can't wait to see how that one comes out.
Lol! Unfortunately, they still haven't fixed the GPU VRAM calculator. I guess I'm lucky. Still had ~4GB to spare. I only played for a moment right now and never saw it go above 9.2 GB but I know these games can consume it and also that the calculator result is grossly overexaggerated.
