Publishers have tried many ways to combat piracy but Ubisoft have found a new and unique way to annoy game-thieves. Anyone who tries to play a dodgy version of Michael Jackson: The Experience on the Nintendo DS will find the King of Pop has some additional backing instruments.
The YouTube clip below shows how the game is rendered pretty much unplayable thanks to an unending chorus of Vuvuzelas. The on-screen prompts required to play the game have also been removed.
Reports that a pirated copy of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood features X-Factor’s Wagner Carriho ‘singing’ a medley of Elvis hits have yet to be confirmed.

Other anti-piracy measures could include non-handling cars in GT5 (I must have a pirated copy…), FIFA 11 where England host the 2080 World Cup, Fallout New Vegas where the dogs DON’T sit on air, and even Lara Croft where she wears a birka…
Any other ideas?

Yeah if you pirate call of duty you will only be able to run around with big floppy dildo’s online and won’t be able to kill anyone because you will get shot before you get close to anyone to hit them.
