Blizzard's game downloaded 2.3 million times on most popular torrent.

Torrent Freak has posted a list of record-breaking torrent files which includes the largest and oldest torrents recorded. StarCraft II wins the award for the most data transferred.

The most popular torrent file of the 7.19 GB game has reached 2.3 million downloads, totalling 15.77 Petabytes since its launch. As Blizzard makes the game available on its own, legitimate, BitTorrent downloader, it may have transferred even more data. As Blizzard doesn't provide any stats on performance, however, no official comparison can be made.

We recently published an article on Blizzards attempts to take more control of its game in the Korean pro-gaming scene.
