Game being sold for $5 as a piracy amnesty.

It's a very, very popular game

Never heard of it, but then again I don't play PC games, instead PS3.

That's at least one way for them to avoid piracy, by offering the product at a low price anyone could afford - the music and movie industry could adopt that in my opinion.
