Buzzing horn ruins the Michael Jackson experience for DS pirates |

If you're going to pay a tribute to the late great King of Pop, you might as well go legit. Ubisoft has implemented a new anti-piracy measure for Michael Jackson: The Experience on the Nintendo DS, so you bet there aren't going to be any smooth criminals for this show.
They might not have been able to stop the illegal distribution of the game, but Ubisoft was somehow able to stop the pirates from enjoying the experience. Many of the touch-screen controls have been disabled and the music is marred by what sounds like a blaring vuvuzela.
This blurry off-screen vid shows you how the audio gets all messed up:

It was a whole six days before somebody figured out a workaround.

Metaforic boasted a year ago a 100% unhackable security for DS games today--they failed. At least Pokemon B/W's security flew under the radar till people downloaded it
