You can pirate Blizzard games all day long, but if you don't have a valid serial you cant get online with them, the online game is always much better than the single player one.

Cams and dating don't have piracy issues because the online interactive element is so strong.
That's why the gaming industry doesn't actually see much problem with Piracy... Buy the new hit game or pirate it, your choice, but you won't get jack shit but a quick single player game for the pirated copy. Especially with Microsoft as they ban you quickly if they sense any pirated stuff through Xbox Live and that sucks for pirates, they wanna play online, 99% of gamers buy a game and don't even play single player, they go straight for multi. And they don't wanna lose not only their Live account, but have their Xbox serial blocked and be out $300 for playing 1 pirated game.
