Call of Duty: Black Ops has set plenty of sales records since its release last November, but one award Activision won't be happy about is the game's status as the most pirated title of 2010.

According to Torrent Freak (via PC Gamer), the PC version of Black Ops was torrented more than four million times, while the Xbox 360 edition was torrented 930,000 times.


The most pirated Xbox 360 and Wii games were Dante's Inferno (1,280,000) and Super Mario Galaxy 2 (1,470,000) respectively.

The top five most pirated PC games of the year:
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

A report last month claimed Wii was the most popular gaming platform for pirated games last year.

If it had've been easy to download for the PS3, Activision still would have gotten complaints the multiplayer's that diseased

Aside from all the issues that still exist such as NAT issues for BT users?

BT as in the company? I had read around the NAT nonsense, something to do with being the host and how open the NAT was?

Yes

It's quite typical to get an unfinished AAA game or one that wasnt properly tested. It's a shame really, seems to be the smaller titles come out better.

It's nothing short of a rip-off

I can understand Starcraft 2 because it is a great game. I play it every week, and will probably still play it in two or three years. I still have not even started the campaigns. Though the activation system must have been hacked as well.
