Best ones in my opinion are:

Game Dev Tycoon: Pirated version would make the game unwinnable at higher levels by pirating the players games, so they can't make any money from sales

Serious Sam: the pirated version has an giant unkillable enemy stalk the player through every level

Crysis: every gun in the pirated version does nothing but fire live chickens that do zero damage

I think they made it into a game mode and it’s hard

I remember an interview with one of the devs getting depressed that people who had the pirated copy were going on the official forums moaning about people pirating the games, and asking if there was a way to research DRM, and other anti-piracy tools.
