“Reloaded (warez)”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Reloaded (stylised as RELOADED and RLD) is a warez group founded in June 2004 from the ex-members of DEViANCE.^[1] They released and cracked Spore 4 days before its release date ^[2] and a beta version of The Sims 3 15 days before its release date. On February 29, 2008, Reloaded released a cracked version of Assassin's Creed, a month before its release on March 28. However, this release was later nuked for not being the final retail version as well as having crashing issues. The retail version was released by them more than a month later.
