I had a feeling that they would go after the chip makers, but it is a little late for that, haha. Nowadays consoles are modded using custom firmware. Too bad for the feds, they're always a day late and a buck short. They can try to stop pirates but they can't stop their success  :twisted:

Good to see that government agencies are spending time and resources to "protect" us (large companies). 
The Turbo was Dual Core when Dual Core wasn't cool . . .

Yes, thats right. Apparently they have discovered if you use the Emotion Engine from the PS2 with a Metal Gear Solid disc, you can launch a nuclear missile at any location in the world.

If I remember correctly, one of the reports at the time also mentioned Iraq/Saddam Hussein. The genius story said most people don't realize that the PS2 is so sophisticated that it's almost like a real computer and as such could possibly be used to launch nuclear missiles.

A freakin' Game and Watch could be used to launch nuclear missiles.  Launching the missiles does not require super-jagged polygon rendering power.

The double screen Zelda Game and Watch could launch a nuke and AT THE SAME TIME run your sprinklers.
