Most Pirated Games of 2011

Another area prone to piracy is the video game world. The people over at TorrentFreak, who earlier compiled the most pirated movies, have compiled a list of the most pirated games of the year. Here are the lists below. They did not list PS3 numbers as apparently the console typically has significantly lower numbers of pirated games than anything else and this year was no different, so they did not compile the numbers. Numbers for PC, Wii, and X-Box 360 are available below.
