Administrator Lite Posted May 25, 2008 Administrator Share Posted May 25, 2008 Speaking at yesterday's Wedbush Morgan Securities annual Management Access Conference, the Atari founder suggested that game piracy will soon be a thing of the past thanks to a new chip."There is a stealth encryption chip called a TPM that is going on the motherboards of most of the computers that are coming out now," he pointed out "What that says is that in the games business we will be able to encrypt with an absolutely verifiable private key in the encryption world - which is uncrackable by people on the internet and by giving away passwords - which will allow for a huge market to develop in some of the areas where piracy has been a real problem."Bushnell thinks that piracy of movies and music, however, is probably unstoppable because "if you can watch it and you can hear it, you can copy it.""Games are a different thing, because games are so integrated with the code. The TPM will, in fact, absolutely stop piracy of gameplay."As soon as the installed base of the TPM hardware chip gets large enough, we will start to see revenues coming from Asia and India at a time when before it didn't make sense."

irefay Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Well, I think its official, they have too much disposable income. First it was the overwelming resourses spent on making it "look cool" neglecting game play. Now... evil piracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
