The phrase refers to the act of acquiring a digital copy of the video game “Sonic Adventure 2” without incurring any cost. This can involve downloading the game files from various online sources, potentially bypassing the standard purchase process through legitimate digital distribution platforms or retail outlets.
The pursuit of such downloads stems from several factors, including cost savings, access to potentially unavailable or rare versions of the game, and, in some cases, circumventing digital rights management (DRM) restrictions. However, obtaining software in this manner often carries significant legal and security implications, including potential copyright infringement and exposure to malware.
