Well i was talking about MW2. But as for piracy, Demi God was a giveaway basicly. Didnt include any DRM and Gamestop released the game a week prior to official release date, further crippling the game as servers crashed due to the numbers of people trying to connect to their servers on pirated copies.
It was a failed business model from the start.. not sure if that adds anything to what you're talking about. And i really dont care.
