I remember RZR, FLT and DRG. There was also a group doing rips where they took out all alternate language audio, re-compressed cutscenes, and then repacked the whole came with uHARC, turning 9.4GB downloads into 5GB, maybe even less. I had a good internet connection already at that time, but I imagine for people in countries with bad internet (<2020s American internet for example) it must have been magical.
