This site looks kinda weird. For one, it looks much more polished than any similar site I’ve seen so far. They have really good SEO as well, always popping up pretty high on Google. They have a massive selection of content.
How can they still be up?
What’s the catch/what’s wrong with them?
Also, what do they mean by “preinstalled”? The game isn’t preinstalled if I have to install it from them, is it?
I remember it being blacklisted in Reddit’s r/piracy megathread, supposedly they used IGG’s cracks or something. I, however, never had any problems with them.
Tread with caution. Use steamrip.com or other safe sources if you can, and if you have to use this site, at least be wary, read comments and scan the fuck out of everything.
Thanks for the warning. What’s IGG?
IGG is a cracking group with a mixed reputation. Early on they distributed malware, which continues to give them a negative reputation. Though, I haven’t heard of anything bad about them, in some time… some repackers also use their cracks, with no issues. I think they were the first that cracked the latest Armoured Core, for example.
Since when was IGG a cracking group? They’re just uploaders. TENOKE is the one who cracked Armored Core. Repackers use SCENE/P2P cracks like RUNE, TENOKE, EMPRESS, SKIDROW, etc.
IGG is not a cracker. I personally don’t trust them. I don’t understand why they include unimportant files in their uploads.
What is the point of including these files? They’re irrelevant.

With or without malware, I ain’t risking downloading my games from their uploads.
IGG is bad because some of their repacks had their drm inside dll files, there were Ads built into the game at runtime, were found Cryptominers and startup malware included in their games and many other things.
