2008's most pirated game, EA's blockbuster Spore, saw 400,000 downloads in its first 10 days, so Sims 3 is on pace to beat that.
EA is saying however that the pirated version is not the final release.
"The pirated version is a buggy, pre-final build of the game," EA's Holly Rockwood said. "It’s not the full game. Half the world - an entire city - is missing from the pirated copy."
The game is set for legitimate release on Tuesday.
