Game Piracy, is it sending the industry broke.

XboxOZ360 reports:

"Now 5 major publishing houses - which consist of Atari, Codemasters, Topware Interactive, Reality Pump, and Techland intend to serve notices on 2500 accused pirates. The Publishers have banded together and enrolled the talents of major Commercial Law firm Davenport Lyons to represent them in filing charges against the suspected 2500 people who have been found to have either downloaded or distributed illegal copies of video games published by their respective companies.

The accused will be given a chance to opt for an out-of-court settlement fee of $US563 or alternatively, be taken to the courts and face much higher chargers if found guilty, and they will be found guilty, there is no way around that. The firm does plan on following through with at least 500 of those 2500 cases."
