RELOADED is a major PC game warez release group that has cracked several StarForce and other copy protection protected games. They often release games on the day of, or occasionally before, their street date.
[edit] History
RELOADED released their first title June 1, 2004, True Crime: Streets of L.A..
The group has survived at least two large attacks which were aimed to damage The Scene. The first operation was known as Operation Site Down and was carried out by the FBI, destroying two major RELOADED competing groups, VENGEANCE and HOODLUM. After the raids, RELOADED became one of the most active PC game cracking and releasing group in The Scene.
The second operation RELOADED survived was planned by GVU. Its legality was questioned as GVU allegedly paid money to topsite operators. It was rumored that the leader of RELOADED was arrested during the raids, but this was never confirmed, even by GVU. The group released a new title the following day and is still one of the most active cracker groups.
