Report: Modern Warfare 2 was the most pirated game of 2009



Last year, TorrentFreak awarded Spore the dubious title of Most Pirated Game of 2008 — this year, the victor (by an overwhelming margin) is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

When combined with the 360 version of the game, that number tops five million. Looks like boycotts do work! And by “boycotts,” we of course mean, “mankind’s overwhelming desire to get things for free through easily accessible, barely regulated channels.”
