So Madfinger games is claiming that piracy is behind a move to drop the price of a $.99 game to zero. For some reason this claim just does not make sense. It is a well-known trend that low cost games are rarely pirated in fact the biggest reason that games a pirated is due to the cost of the game so we are having a hard time believing that a $0.99 game is being pirated in large amounts. I would believe it if they said that something like Shadowrun was being pirated as it is a $4.99 game on both the iPad and Android. So, if piracy is not the cause then what is?

It seems that there is another troll under the bridge this time it is named Uniloc and is a company that has deiced to sue multiple game companies for violating one of the patents that they won by assignment. The patent in question is a little iffy to say the least and relates to “System and method for preventing unauthorized access to electronic data.” Uniloc not only claims exclusive rights to use this technology in the wider software world, but also in the Android OS environment. .
