Game preloading 

Preloading (in sense of videogames) is when you are able to download a game before it's actually been released and available for everyone to play. So when the game is out, you can play it instantly if you preloaded the game.

This is very useful to people who have slow internet speed, so they won't have to wait for a long time before they can start it.

1: Hey, will this game allow preloading?

1: Nice, thought I would have to wait.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
