That's actually very interesting man, it's amazing how many games are pirated and stuff, the sheer volume is insane especially when that represents a lot of lost profit to video game companies. Thanks for sharing this buddy, have a happy 2012 as well.
It surprises me that Lego Pirates of the Caribbean has so many downloads...then again I've never played a Lego game before.
Great list! What I find interesting is that Skyrim isn't on there. There are some late-in-the-year games like CoD and all that. Weird.
