Most Pirated Game
The Golden Age of Pirates has inspired many a story, song, and film, and video games are no exception to its inspirational qualities. It was an age where piracy upon the sea was rife, and where traveling from point A to point B was a peril-filled adventure. The world was a pretty unsafe place back in the day, and to top it off, it was filled with real-world characters like Black Beard.
Needless to say, the Golden Age of Pirates has become something of an anchor for video games, competing as a strong genre among the likes of zombies, aliens, and robots.
- For the Xbox 360, 'Dante's Inferno' was the most the pirated game with 1,280,000 flying through BitTorrent. And 'Super Mario Galaxy 2' was the most illegally downloaded game for the Wii.
- The show's concluding episode for Season 4 was the most-pirated hour of TV with around 1.5 million downloads within 12 hours of the finale's airing. Over 250,000 people managed to share the same torrent file, breaking the show's own record which it set back in May.
