BitTorrent is a file sharing protocol that is mostly used for downloading and sharing large files. These large files are generally movies, music discs, software or computer games.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Download and install a BitTorrent program. This program will allow you to download the torrent files. A very popular program is Vuze (see Resources).

  2. Step 2

    Find a BitTorrent website. These sites are the way to find the torrent files. A popular page is The Pirate Bay (see Resources).

  3. Step 3

    Search for the game you want. Type in the name of the game into the search box and press "search."

  4. Step 4

    Find the torrent file with a large number of seeders. Seeders are who you download the torrents from. The more seeders, the faster your download time.

  5. Step 5

    Select the torrent file and press "download." Your BitTorrent program will immediately load and begin the download.
