Dude, get real.

You can always get another serial, but you really need to keep in mind that
if you like the game, you should support the developers.  If you pirate
their software, the only person that looses in the end is everyone.  They
just won't make good games anymore because everyone just cracks the code and
pirates it.

If you get a cracked copy and then you play it a lot, you really should go
and buy a copy and support the company that made it.  Otherwise, they won't
port games to the PC.  They will keep them on Xbox and other hardware like
that.
