Black Ops is the most pirated game of 2010

Posted By | On 05th, Jan. 2011

Call of Duty: Black Ops is already at eighteen million units sold worldwide ever since its release just two months ago- now that’s a heavy number in a very short span of time. Activision must be really happy. What they will not be happy about is that it’s also the most pirated game of 2010, with over four million illegal downloads having been made already, and that is just for the PC.

According to PC Gamer, over four million torrents of the PC version of Black Ops were downloaded. For the XBox 360, it was torrented 930,000 times. Dante’s Inferno was more pirated on the Xbox 360, though, with 1,280,000 torrent downloads.

The Wii’s most pirated game was Super Mario Galaxy 2, having been torrented 1,470,000 times already.

Here’s the top 5 pirated PC games of 2010:

01. Call of Duty: Black Ops – 4,270,000
02. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 – 3,960,000
03. Mafia 2 – 3,555,000
04. Mass Effect 2 – 3,240,000
05. Starcraft 2 – 3,120,000

Wow, and we are counting just the torrent downloads here. Crazy.
