    I don't understand the whole theory behind PC games being hacked and consoles not. Look at any torrent site the day of a game's release I see X360 games just as quickly if not more quickly than PC games. PS3 games aren't as likely to be hacked.

    Just my experience, the number of 360 users knowing how to mount an ISO image and then hack the 360 to play the pirated game vs PC users who know how to just mount an ISO image and pirate the game is substantial.
    - Some 360 users are console players and not PC users because of the simplicity of 360.
    - I am by no means saying all, but I've more stupid 360 users than PC gamers. I mean really stupid. I know plenty of console players who have no idea what a torrent is to begin with.

    A 360 won't play the pirated game unless you hack that also. Not many people want to risk having their 360 tampered with.
