The Sims 3 will be pirated to bits and still be the best selling PC game of 2009

Spore was a huge favourite for game pirates in 2008, and we're predicting even bigger (but not better) things for The Sims 3. The Sims is one of the most popular gaming franchises of all time, so expect pirates to be all over it like flies to, well, you know, in March. While EA is bound to be upset about this, The Sims 3 is likely to be the biggest selling PC game of 2009, beating the likes of Starcraft II, Diablo III and Half Life 2: Episode Three, so it won't mind too much.
