Sony 'Inviting Trobule' With PS3 Mod Support Says MS XNA Man >
2008/04/11 11:55:13: Posted by DM
Chris Satchell, XNA Group Manager at MS, has stated that companies like Nintendo, Sony, and even Apple, are inviting trouble if they do not have XNA-style security measures in place to combat those who maliciously mod hardware to pirate games, and worse.

"Any platform that let's you do that, and doesn't have the right security measures in place - whether it's Sony, whether it's Nintendo, whether it's Apple, whether it's anyone - you're inviting trouble, because sooner or later someone will want to prove they can do it," he added.

Pirates do usually have that mentality, we will give him that.

I'm not sure that MS should be the one offering advice to apple, sony and nintendo on Web security.

its more then just Web Security Limey. XNA is a software where people can create custom games to run on the 360 and Windows. he's basically saying that without restrictions, anyone can create a mod with extra unnecessary code to do things that normally wouldnt be allowed. say UT3 for PS3. what if i were to make a mod that had a hidden code that disabled PS3 security? or allowed pirated games? he's pretty much stating the obvious, even though the PS1/2, DC, XBOX and Cube have all been heavily hacked without XNA/mod capabilities. it just would've been easier if it has.

You will never end the war on piracy just like you will never end the war on drugs. Quit wasting all of out tax dollars and put it towards something useful.

I mean our not out.. see you could be using our tax dollars to get me a better education :P
