Successful DRMs

All Games have a selling shelf-life of roughly 6 months. So we have defined a successful DRM as one that has survived half that time. If a Game remains pirate free for a period of 90 days or more, we will record them here:

Errors in the table can be caused by ongoing updates and erroneous data. Finally not all cracks are checked, we do take care to source good information, but sometimes it is not 100% accurate!
