The End Of All Game Piracy Published by wes213 on Saturday, May 24, 2008

In a news post on gamesindustry.biz Atari's founder made some bold statements about the encryption chip that will supposedly end piracy in the gaming world.
(Its as if you can hear all the Linux based PC's booting up and smell the soldering irons getting hot.)
"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, 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 seems to think you can never stop the movie piracy problem and makes a grate point with this statement: "if you can watch it and you can hear it, you can copy it."
So movies will never get a fair cut but video games are in his opinion a different story all together, Bushnell said: "Games are a different thing, because games are so integrated with the code. The TPM will, in fact, absolutely stop piracy of game play."
"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."
