The ESA, which represents several major gaming companies, has shared an updated list of notorious piracy threats with the U.S. Government. One of the notable newcomers is FitGirl-Repacks, which has been a dominant player in the game piracy landscape for years. Meanwhile, ESA’s report no longer mentions malware, cryptocurrencies, or Scene release groups, which were previously seen as ‘growing trends’.

    I used to have a data cap and I would sometimes download the Fitgirl version of games I had on Steam simply because they were half the size. 22 gigs vs 60 gigs? Yeah, give me that fitgirl zipped version.
